Wondering if the horrible vegetation and tree bug with speedtree technology in triple-screen Eyefinity-setup that ruined the gaming experience in DA1 will still be rearing it's ugly head in DA2?
If so, why so? You'd really be doing yourself a huge favor making sure DA2 doesn't suffer from this problem - heck, why don't you fix it in DA1 and it'll carry over to the sequel (if you're still using the same engine, that is.).

Cheerio!

How would they be doing themselves a huge favor by fixing this problem? People with that setup probably account for 0.000001% of the people who bought the game.

Because it says right there on the Box - ATi Eyefinity - Multi Display Technology, also listed on AMD's site as supporting it. It affects everyone playing in a resolution higher than 1920x1080. Claiming that something works while it clearly doesn't is false advertising as far as I'm aware. Wouldn't you be a tad ticked off if the Toyota Land Destroyer you were buying claimed to be 4-wheel drive but when you try it out you realise it's No-wheel drive?

How does that have anything to do with DA2?

Not paying attention, are we?

I'm not expecting an answer from random_dude_off_the_internet_002 as this question is clearly not directed to you.

I am paying attention. Just because it supports it doesn't mean that it is optimized for it. Even if it did, what's written on DAO's box has nothing to do with DA2.

No, I meant I don't know what that bug is

Oh. Neither do I. Something to do with high resolutions or multiple screens or something.

[True Zarken]

I have an Eyefinity setup well the Nvidia equivalent anyway. "Surround Vision" god they really need to come up with better names for their technology without the user sounding like an idiot. Anyway on topic; I have no idea what you're talking about with the Speedtree bug.



It could very well be an ATI/AMD thing I am not sure. For the record I am playing with a resolution of 7680x1440 so it could be affected by your Ratio as the majority of monitors out there still are 16:10 and I am playing at 16:9.

[Juggernawt]

Here's a quick vid to better demonstrate the problem. -- YouTube-clip.

Cheers.

It seems that perhaps depending on your total resolution of the combined three monitors, it looks like it could be that the game might be shedding some game resources for the sake of performance.

[Juggernawt]

Game is running on 2xHD5850 1GB in Crossfire. System is a Phenom2 X4 965 with 8Gb RAM running on Windows7 64 Ultimate. Not using AA and vsync is on - FPS ingame is 58-60fps constant. I'm thinking resources are more than adequate.

Wrong forum. Just because you try to make it look like it is your 'concern' for DA2 too, it is still just a complaint of a bug in DA:O.

[FellowerOfOdin]

Total number of users affected...5? I get your point but there are way way way waaaaaaaay more important problem to fix than such a minor one

So you think that only 5 people in the whole world play Bioware games on a multi-monitor setup based on ATi-Eyefinity?

I'm asking in the forum in a futile attempt to make someone at Bioware acknowledge the problem and hopefully fix it in DA2 (thinking they'd spend any more time on DA:O is probably out of the question). Also prospective Eyefinity-gamers out there should be made aware that this problem exists and that it might affect their gaming experience in DA2 if developers don't fix it.

[pedalhead]

For what it's worth, I'm also hoping for solid Eyefinity support for DA2. I'm not so concerned about bug fixes for DA1 any more...I've already spend 300+ hours playing that & putting up with the vegetation issues :-) Whilst Eyefinity hasn't (yet) seen mass adoption, there are quite a few of us out there. Once you've played games on a triple monitor setup it's hard to go back!

Quit trying to validate your waste of money.



It's like people that buy SUVs and complain about gas prices.

[Lord_Saulot]

I hope that Bioware still has some people fixing up the remaining DAO bugs. A final patch "1.05" would be great.

wow, friendly place.  Who is that comment aimed at?

[Naitaka]

Gotta love the rabid fanboys/gals who show up where they're never wanted. The op posted a legitimate concern for DA2 based on the problem in DA:O, and this is what he gets?



You know what, I'm wrong, actually I like your logic Nerivant. Since it doesn't affect all of the user base let's just ignore the ones that are affected. So can we get a 1.05 patch for PC alone and just forget the whole getting patch on xbox and ps3 as well thing?

[SteveGarbage]

Hmmm, interesting problem, good luck with that.

On the other hand, the common sense side of me says play the game on one monitor like 99 percent of the population. I'd prefer BioWare spend time tweaking and polishing issues that will affect the majority of the gamer base.

[JamesX]

Let us hope any error that was found in DA:O (be minor or large) do not make any reappearance in DA2.
