Ultra-Wide Screen Resolution Distortion

April 13, 2014 5:19:14 PM from Galactic Civilizations III ForumsGalactic Civilizations III Forums

When I load Galciv III in with my monitor’s native resolution of 2560 x 1080 the edges get distorted.  When I load it in 1920 x 1080 it works just fine.  It seems like the area beyond the 1920 is the area that gets distorted.  This does not happen on all of the screens.  The main UI screen and the loading screens are fine but the intro video and gameplay screens get distorted.

I forgot to mention my Video card and drivers.  It's a NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 running Driver version 335.23.

I get this as well. Running nVidia surround with resolution of 5760 x 1200

Game play is all ok for me with no distortion at all. Just the intro movie and the title screen

GeForce GTX 760 running 335.23 drivers

 

Cheers

Since you are so close to release I figure I mention I still have this problem. Newer Drivers or betas have not fixed the issue. It happens to all the video playback screens and after awhile I get a crash to desktop. So for the last year I have not been able to play much of the betas.  Hopefully you can get it fixed before launch.
