@GShock GW2 video settings is only reporting available resolutions as given to it by the operating system. When you enable Infinity, the OS sees the combined screens area as a single display.

If in Infinity mode, all applications and games that read available resolutions reported from the OS will give you the capability to operate at all resolutions; whether the applications can adjust and render properly at those resolutions is up to the application. So Anet saying that they do not support multi-displays in accurate in that sense.

Having said that, the way that the UI is coded in GW2 has no facility to re-position static UI elements. What the fix did was to move all the edge items to a relative offset based on 1/x screen resolution. In essence it restored the UI to a single screen with the other ones used as a peripheral viewpoint.

What is really needed to the ability to re-position those fixed UI elements as in the previous GW to accommodate all personal preferences.

Logitech G13 + Windows 7 issue

32 or 64 bits? – Tried clean uninstalling the drivers, and installing the latest ones? LGS 8.04 I believe)?

Have no issues with them here (G13 / G15 / G600 and G35) all working under this driver. Only problem is with older games and a F301 gamepad in which the g13 stick keeps being seen as the default…

Not Doing Them Anymore(Personal Stories)

I feel for you OP. I managed to do the personal story without too much difficulty as a guardian; however no matter how you struggle to complete your personal story expect to be disappointed when you arrive at the last task.

For some reasons, our friends at Anet have deemed fit to ensure that you can never complete your personal story as a personal story. You will be required to group at the last instance as it occurs in a dungeon.

Now, while I agree that this is an MMO and all, the premises of the personal story is that it is a character based story and all of it should be feasible as such.

HELP! Any ATI users with a 3 screen setup?

Anet Tech dev Bill Friest stated over 5 months ago that a solution for ATI users was forthcoming in this post

Unfortunately only Nvidia users got some love from this, leading me to believe that Anet don’t give a rat for AMD users.

And no, WS is not really an option, even if it is a kludged solution, as it ends up being another background process that does interfere and sometimes break the ATI drivers.

Bump….I mean, hey! I have an update!

We’ve got fixes for 3D, Nvidia Surround and AMD Eyefinity coming down the pipe in the next few builds.

I believe the next build will contain fixes for 3D, including the inability to launch with 3D enabled. I’m not 100% sure, but we have some fixes for Nvidia Surround in the works too and might even slip a couple of those in that build, too.

We’ll be continuing to hammer away and get these issues all resolved. Thanks for hanging in there everyone!

Bill, it’s been 5 months. When are the AMD/ATI users gonna get some love and have the Eyefinity issues fixed?

And no, FWS is not an option.

Report: Eyefinity change 6950 to 7950 xfire

While the game appears to be CPU intensive, Default settings at 5760*1080 (eyefinity) with a pair of HD 6950’s was around 21 FPS.

Just placed a couple of 7950’s in and FPS improved to an average of 30, very playable and no stutter to speak of with the 13.2B6 drivers.

System: Asus PH77 I5-3570K-8GB(1600)-2*vapour Saffire HD 7950 (950/1250) AMD V13.2B6 drivers

Setting in game are through the (select best settings) tool.

While I was expecting somewhat more, as other games like Crysis 3 benefited greatly, I am still a happy camper.

FIX THEkittenSKILL POINTS!

Many skill points challenges broken lately. Seems that they only reset when the server is reset.

Perhaps a Cron routine to periodically check their status and reset them as necessary?

Voice Chat: Characters speaking for you

You want to make those character speech a result of voice, not keypress!

It would be more interesting to have the client synthesize the emotes commands voiced by the player and have those results in the character /acting or voicing sets/ – not as a pass through but as commands. The in game character is still limited to the in game sets of emotes.

Now, the only problem how to be able to use this while having connections to voice servers…

Once the flags quiet, you have 8 seconds to get to a safe place (wall). Lots of time to get to the next safe section.

Last evening (9-9-12), purchased 5 chest keys – 450 gems. Gems were deducted, but no keys were mailed.

At the time, inbox had 0/10 messages. Proceeded to delete the messages, still no keys. Logged on today, and while there was some SPAM messages, still not keys. It has now been ~24 hrs. (Character Grizou Tanant).

Attention AMD users: 12.8 CAP 2 released - improves guild wars 2 performance.

Could be just me, however after a few test here I am finding out that crossfire does NOT get enabled (pair of 6950s) after the new caps are installed. On startup of the game, the second card briefly jumps to 840Mz and then immediatly drops back to idle (where it stays).

Testing with other games does not result in this behavior so it appears that there is still something not quite correct with the CAP profile.

Upon further investigation, if GW2 is run in fullscreen mode, then the cap do work, the second GPU drops off only if GW2 is set to run in windowed mode (or windowed full screen).

AMD CrossfireX map bug

This one is AMD’s fault. When they added the Xfire profile in the 12.7 CAP3, they used the beta name for the program.

The solution is to go into CCC, under the gaming tab click on application profiles, create a user profile using the pre-defined profile (drop down list at the bottom of the selections) of GW2Dev.exe and assign it to the current GW2.exe in your game folder.

Solved the issue for me. – YMMV.
