Like it says anybody have the eyefinity running on this game? My display port adapter thingy will get here this week and my 3 monitors are definately waiting to rock this game with it, Im going to check the widescreengamesforum.com sight for any info on it to.
I thought it was a gimmick to at first since i have a 52 inch samsung, but im sold and will never go back to single monitor, hope this game will work with it with some res hacks.

Ive had eyefinity since this sim came out,but still this is the one game that can't span across 3 monitors, I got outside view working but inside just no go

Please someone MOD this

ya i gave up and went back to my 52 inch screen maybe try eyefinity again next card generation, doesnt have the horsepower or bandwidth to handle these new games anyway at full details. But sure would be nice if sh5 was multiscreened.

Aw, man, a 52" screen? How can you even see anything on a screen that small?!
Seriously, that must be amazing to behold. Do you get sea-sick ever?

I could play it on my 120" screen but I don't. =P

I have EyeInfinity and three monitors as well but I couldn't figure out how to get the game to work in a 5760x1200 resolution so I gave up. Obviously someone here got it to work partly... care to share how you did it?

What card did you buy? I'm ordering one of those Sapphire 5970's because this Eyefinity set-up blew my mind

SH5 doesn't work at 3-screen resolutions, period. If you install SH5 while the 3 screens are enabled, the game plays the intro video and cryptically hangs when it starts you in first-person mode. See if you can guess how I worked this out. It's not a performance issue - basically some bit of the SH5 code dies when you have the field of view available from the super-wide-screen 3 monitors gives you. But... as mentioned, when you're in camera mode outside the sub you can look around ok.
