Widescreen support now working?

[aspendosia]

One of my great gripes about this game has been how ultrawide monitors seemed upsupported such that trying to pin a marker on a map was a game of 'pin the tail' with the marker never tagging where you were clicking.

And then today it seems to have suddenly started working.

I've not seen a hotfix, don't see a download in the manager, but now it works?

OOC anyone know if this was something quietly sorted server side?

FWIW all my drivers are always up-to-date. Maybe something in those fixed this, but again, nothing's updated overnight.

I just finished loading this on my old gaming machine.

Intel 2600 with twin GTX 670 video cards ( 3840x1080x85hz ) & 16 gb of memory. Monitors are (3) Princeton Graphics CRTs. ( 4800x1200 ) crashes system. Windows 7 & nVidia 466 current driver.

Can only run this at medium settings producing 32 fps. Looks halfway decent. Slight lag,

Haven't gotten around to tweaking it yet.

Current machine is not quite as old with a 2560x1440x144hz monitor with the settintgs on ultra. Crisp & clear graphics. Runs at 55 to 80 fps depending on scene cpmplexity.

Never noticed a problem with the wide screen......

I gather you are using Win 10 & nVidia drivers with one monitor??

FWIW I'm using Win10 and the nVidia drivers with one monitor.

So far the waymarker feature seems to be working across all the maps I'm playing. I presume this means something to do with the drivers and a feature thereof 'now' working, but being non-technical all I know is that it didn't work for months, and now does. Most odd.

Who knows, maybe other bugs will start clearing of their own accord now, too (bricked HunterMate, looking at you).

Its still not perfect but a lot better than it was a couple of days ago. The pointer on the pin is placing just a whisker above the mouse pointer now and it places first mouse click again. Also getting the option to fast travel is back if I place the mouse pointer also just below the lodge icon on the map and it works again almost every time.

Seems this *is* a driver-centric issue in that when my drivers updated last week, the waypoint tagging went haywire again. Updated the ticket to EW, just wonder if they will ever get it fixed, especially now there's a new 'thing' coming which is sure to go smoothly without any problems whatsoever...
