Increasing horisontal field of view in PoE

works great. looks great

why am I unable to customize my resolution? Im using NVIDIA and under the control panel> Reolution--the customize button is greyed out so I'm unable to click it.

**EDIT

Thanks for the link, looks far to complicated and even risky for me(referring to the Warning:system instability)... I guess this is something for Desktop users, but thanks for answering.

When I look at the two sample screenshots, I see 'normal' and 'deformed'. Others probably just see 'less' and 'more'.

Edit: gave it a go. Damn, that's ugly.

game graphics look no different ..it's just in a different resolution. it looks fucking great. yes you get to see more of it. what's not to like?

You probably have Intel integrated graphics. Read this: http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-029478.htm#whatis

Or try to force your dedicated Nvidia graphics card to work instead of integrated. ALthough I have no idea how exactly.

Hm, so these are legit in pvp just like alt f4/logout then? OK.

Yes that is correct.

So people who use this have an advantage over the ones who dont? That doesnt seem right.

People who use 16:9 aspect ratio screens have slight advantage over those who use 16:10.
Both of them have huge advantage over someone using 4:3 display.
So by your logic to equalise everyone PoE should be locked at 4:3? (lol)

While that is true, GGG can't stop it.

Their only recourse is to hope it never catches on (which it likely won't, people are pretty lazy) and/or work it into the game itself.

Stop what? People changing resolution? Set 800x600 for everyone?

I think you don't actually understand what is going on here.
PoE uses horisontal scaling. That is all.
Work into the game what exactly???

raising awareness

3 monitors:
3240x1920


5760x1000

that 2nd 3 monitor SS looks really awkward to me... Does it sort of rotate in game as you move? It looks kinda like the fishbowl effect from upping FoV too much in an fps. Maybe it's just because i cant see the whole thing at once =P

It's hard to explain, but pretty much when only focusing at the center screen the perspective of the other two looks correct. It does get a 'rotating' effect if that explains it better.
