3 Black Screen can't find solution

rss0900 · 12-15-12, 03:30 AM

Grrrrr I can't figure out how to change the aspect ratio or field of view. AT 3072x768x75 the screen menus don't show up correctly and everything is distorted. Anyone with a suggestion on this?

I give up literally 5 hours surfing the net and forums trying to find these answers

I don't think you'll be able to stretch it over 3 screens like that easily. There is really nothing to stretch that much. Try one screen.

It does work on one screen but I've also seen posts where people are saying it's working on 3 in the right aspect ratio. But I can't find any that tell me how they did it. After using triple screens it breaks my heart to only use one now - but yes it works on one

thats because the right aspect ratio for you is different then anyone elses so you just have to keep trying until you find the one that works for you

Webster thank but how do you change the aspect ratio? Is that simply through the resolution and main.cfg?

I've got it set to 3072, 768, 75, 22

I have no idea what the 22 means. Is change the aspect ration simply a matter of changing the resolution (first two numbers?)

Change it in
Documents\SH5\data\cfg\main
