Multi-Monitor Support PLEASE!

from Sins Forums

Ironclad I am a Multi-Monitor user with Nvidia's Surround. Here is a picture of how Rebellion looks to me:

I have seen this before with MANY games not supporting the Multi-Monitor resolutions such as 5760x1080 and etc. Ironclad I implore you, please add support for these resolutions by moving the HUD to the center monitor and not off to the side like it is now. Thanks in advance.

 

Your Longtime Fan,

I SECOND THIS!!

 

I have surround as well and would like to have it look better.

Thirded! I am under the impression this wouldn't be a massive job to implement either.

The way I imagine it - bearing in mind I don't have any experience in programming for surround displays so I'm guessing - all you need to do is have a separate resolution settings: One for the 3D rendered view (which would be set to the full surround resolution) and one for the 2D interface (which would be whatever the central monitor can support). This way you don't even have to worry about things like bevel compensation or specific AMD/NVidia support, since the user can just select whichever resolutions suit them.

Please support this. I just got the game and I'm very dissapointed that I can't use my monitors and experience the game very well

I started playing yesterday and I've been finding it difficult to come to grips with.

I suddenly realized that 90% of my problems were that the HUD was spread across all three of my monitors (as per the image in the first post) as opposed to being centered...

Ironclad, please add a simple option to only show the HUD on the "center monitor".

I'd go as far to say that most people experiencing this issue will be using "5760x1080".
