Title: Eyefinity and freespace 2
Post by: JVLK on February 14, 2011, 08:49:55 am

Hi all,

I have a problem with my eyefinity setup (3 screen acting as 1) and freespace 2.
I can select my resolution which is after bezel compensation 5992x1080 but everything is all streched, so I was wondering if there is a way to force a custom aspect ratio?

Hm. Is the 3D rendering stretched, or the cockpit HUD (the gauges and monitors and stuff), or both?

There is (currently) no way to prevent Menu stretching. In order to make the HUD non-stretchy, you need to use a recent nightly build as well as a custom HUD_gauges.tbl

(see this thread (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,72205.0.html) for details)

Yeah, non-stretchy hud is not in the official release yet, but you can get it by using a nightly build.

Still not perfect but it does the job and no more streched hud.
