Widescreen Gaming Forum

Quick update after some testing:

• Multi-monitor-resolutions like 5760 * 1080 are now available via the options-menu


• Changing graphic-options no longer makes the game fall back to 1920 * 1080


• However even if "auto" is selected as aspect ratio, the game still does not correctly extend the fov with three monitors


• Widescreenfixer seems to need an update to support this new version of Darkness II as the current one does not effect the game anymore

Hope I havent overlooked something because I only ran a quick test on this.

Hey guys,

Anyone else having dramas with this game in surround? I can't load it up any more on multi display. It gives me a black screen and then returns to desktop. If I disable my other monitors it works on a single screen but I can't change the resolution higher then 1920x1080. Does anyone know of a way to edit the resolution manually...either via .ini files etc. Or does anyone know where I can delete the resolution settings. I've uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times. Cheers for the ehlp.

The cfg-files of the game are stored in C:Users[Username]AppDataRoamingDarknessII
However they are encrypted and can not be edited but you might want to delete and let the game re-create them.

Assuming that you use a legit version of the game you should have already got a first patch via steam which makes ultra-wide-resolutions like 5760 * 1080 selectable in the options.
In combination with widescreenfixer for correcting the fov, darkness II now should run well in eyefinity / sourround (although the menues are still streched / cropped).
Dont know but maybe the developers will add full multi-monitor-support with a second patch...

Thanks for the reply mate. I am using the Steam version, but it wont let me change the resolution. At the moment it wont even start unless I disable 2 screens, so I'll try deleting the files and go from there. Cheers again.

Update: Yeah that worked, thanks mate. Shame the menus are still cropped.
