FFXI Eyefinity (FFXI across three monitors)- it works!

[Dfoley]

Very unimpressive (eyefinity).

The flight simulation game looks nice, but even FFXIV looks terrible on multi monitors. My brain doesn't handle the 'gaps' of when something disappears from one side/screen and should appear on the other.

If it was a single, seemless monitor like the flight sim game, maybe, but overall very blah.

I have heard that Nvidia works. Last time I checked the iZ3D third party drivers that ATI uses had some technical problems with FFXI (it messes up the graphics). You can test out stereo 3D using anaglyph rendering mode (colored glasses) without needing a 3D monitor and/or LCD shutter glasses.

I've read about something like that before. You probably have a brain defect where it has difficulty tracking objects that temporarily move behind another object. It can cause problems with driving or anything where you have to keep track of multiple objects that temporarily disappear from view.

Quite the opposite of a brain defect. Its actually more of a brain perfection. If something leaves the center screen, my brain doesn't like that it instantly appears on the screen to the left, when there is very clearly 2 inches of plastic that is now being considered null-space, that I just have to accept doesn't exist?

Overall, very rude comment on your part.

I have use IZ3D there are some issues with it but using the offcail client and the proper setting it works pretty well either way IZ3D has a free trial so you can test it anyway ^^

There are multiple ways to set up eyefinity, and one of those is to have the blackbars simulate window bars where the object still would have to move that extra difference in order to appear on the next monitor, I personally Like using this setup, though the other way doesnt bother me

I misunderstood what you were saying. However you can adjust the display in Catalyst Control Center so that it takes the bezels into consideration. It will create an unseen portion of the display off the edge of the screen so that objects don't instantly appear on the adjacent monitors. There are tools for adjusting bezel compensation so that it looks correct. Some people prefer it this way and others don't like the the bezels hiding part of the display.

I don't understand the appeal of several monitors playing 1 game. Personally I use my 2 monitors to run 2 FFXIs and make the game more fun to play, not just look at.

Because it looks better when you have a super wide panoramic view. It's the same reason they shoot some movies in 2.35:1 instead of 16:9. (also why some movies are letterboxed even in 16:9, because they are wider widescreen than HDTV)
