Triple screen issue

Spoonie

Hi,

I've had this issue since CBT, and I've put in a support ticket about it a long time ago, but it still hasn't been fixed. The Multi-monitor support for this game is almost perfect, except this issue. It only seems limited to surround, because when I try single screen, it disappears. It's not an Sli issue either.

That video I made clearly shows what is going on, and it appears while moving through shadows in daylight. It doesn't seem to appear indoors (from memory), and it doesn't appear at night. It REALLY disrupts my immersion in the game, can someone please look into this for me? If you need more video, or information please let me know.

Thanks

Spoonie.

That must be the passive conduit aura buff

Joking aside, that is weird. Hopefully someone else with 3 monitors can chime in. Is that on AMD or NVidia?

Spoonie,


I to am running triple screens. I watched you clip ten times; what am I looking at ? I seem to have missed the glitch.

Just above his crosshair there's three bars of light that shouldn't be there.

This is correct, and it is light, lights up the shadows etc it's quite bright in game.

I have the exact same thing with my AMD R9 290x on triple screens. It's so annoying that i have resorted back to single screen. But it is the least of my triple screen problems

As i have 3 x 55 inch screens. I have to break my neck just to see the inventory, And most other things to. Most things are located on the furthest ends of the outer screens. And reading NPC dialogue from the center to the middle of my right screen.
The chat was the only thing that i could bring back to the centre screen. Compass and health/magic/stamina are the only things found naturally on the centre screen. Skyrim was worse. But with a mod/add on, All these issues were gone. But i am still waiting for someone to make an ESO triple screen Mod/add on

I need all things to be positioned in the places they are when using only 1 screen. The excellent solution that other games use is to use the amount of vertical pixels, as opposed to the amount of horizontal pixels.

And the loading screen is so chopped and zoomed showing very low resolution that you just do not know what the picture is

The well known issue with AMD cards. ie. With one screen i got 61% GPU load average from a few hours of gameplay It's not the case when using triple screen. It's 99 to 100% GPU load Like every other game or benchmarking test out there. This means that i only have a FPS hit of about 15% when using triple screens, All other games are around the 50% mark. This is one positive thing for AMD triple screen users

As for the FOV. At 130 degrees the stretching is just shocking. A characters head on the outside screens are so huge they take up over half the screen, 3/4 Even. It is very fake, But also funny to look at. The lower the FOV the better it looks but kind of defeats the purpose of having triple screens. Even if we could "render each screen separately" to show a perfect picture. We would take another roughly 50% FPS hit. Which would make the game quite unplayable. Even with my monster 290X GPU. Maybe around 2 or 3 years, Top graphics cards could handle it though.

Now I see it. I'll have to keep an eye out for it in game.

For the most part, I'm not phased by the fish-eyed effect we often have to deal with, but the light issue I've described is bad. You are right though, having the inventory and other menu items confined to the sides is terrible. The UI is terrible in general. even with a mod to move all frames, the inventory etc can't be moved from the side. At least they fixed the FOV for the npcs' when you are talking to them, but you're right the text overlaps centre and right monitors.

It's so frustrating because the game is more than capable of running across 3 screens, and looks magical - but these little lazy things are kinda of annoying. I don't expect to placed at the top of any priority list, but to get some dev feedback that they are working on the issues, would be great.

The other MMOs I play are GW2 (perfect support), and Wildstar(not perfect, but mods allow for all manner of customization and movement). Even when I played WoW for an hour, I had a mod that allowed me to move all frames. It's pretty common practise.

In response to the Op.
I have noticed the same thing, but it does only happen when riding / walking towards the Sun.

Your right the things at the sides that you point out are still the same size/zoom. Just the location changes to those positions you pointed out.

I have the default windowed mode in ESO settings. If that's any help
I use catalyst control centre for my AMD card and not windows extended desktop. 5760 x 1080
Use Nvidia's control panel for Nvidea cards.

Is that your only thing wrong. As in,
Has the actual picture on your centre screen changed resolution/zoom? Or has any other things changed zoom?
For me it has stayed the same! The only thing that i can think of being zoomed is the loading screen picture, And nothing else

Skyrim in triple screen had majority of things Zoomed. eg, Lockpicks, Settings, Inventory, Star Constellation, just to name a few.

I'm interested in seeing a screenshot if it's little effort to do!

Your link is not public. What exactly is your problem? Triple screen surround still has known issues that will probably not ever be fixed including the aspect ratio still not being totally correct for 5760x1080. The FOV slider helps a little. As for the UI preference in the middle, there are addons that will let you move almost all of the UI elements to center screen if that is your preference.

Hi. Yeah, The link http://grismn.imgur.com/all/ does not show your screenshot. If you can get a screenshot, That would be great. And also, What does your in game resolution say?

As for add-on's. "Azurah" is what i use. It lets you move and zoom all the standard elements like health, bounty, quest tracker, compass, etc. unfortunately it will not move things from >[___][___][___]< such as you inventory, skills window, etc. and the npc dialogue still stretches across on the right screen. I have searched as many add-on's as i could find with no fix to this issue.

Your issue of things being "zoomed in or big" i have never seen before in game. Only loading screen pictures i have ever seen zoomed. Feel free to send me a friend invite, @MrPAXman

I was thinking about exploring multi-monitors, 2K, and FreeSync in ESO, but your vid is locked.

No matter as I have nothing to contribute.
I just wanted to see what it was doing.
