I've managed to get EYEFINITY working well at 5760 x 1200, with one major problem. The mouse is squished like a sliver and it doesn't work with the menus or the character stats screen. Mouse movement works normal, buttons work normal, but once something like a tutorial screen pops up in the game, I can't select "OK" and there is no way to do it with the keyboard. It would be OK if all parts of the menus/character screens worked with the keyboard, but they don't. For example:

 

1. I can navigate through almost all of the options screen with the keyboard EXCEPT for the resolution buttons (eg << 1920 x 1200 >>). I can't access any of the buttons with the mouse at the bottom of the character screen (i.e., add point, remove point, accept). I also can't access them with the keyboard.

 

Game and mouse work absolutely fine at 1920x1200.

 

System =

I7 930 @ 4.2 GHz

ATI 5970 @ 900/1200

3 x 24" LCD screens

etc.

 

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

 

EDIT: Added screenshots.

1.jpg = Normal 1920x1200. Mouse works fine, selects anything in the menu.

2.jpg = Eyefinity is visually excellent at 6004x1200. Mouse works fine for moving character, shooting etc.

3.jpg = I can click on the << to change resolutions, but button does not realize that my mouse is clicking! SQUISHED MOUSE is visible under the << 6004 x 1200 in the screenshot.

4.jpg = Once I hit a character screen in the game, there is no way to exit. Bottom buttons don't recognize mouse clicks. Can't reach buttons by keyboard. ESC doesn't work. I have to kill the game to get out.

If any Obsidian people monitor these tech issues, I've found I am not the only EyeFinity user having this problem. There's some frustrated EyeFinity users over at widescreengamingforum.com having the same "squished mouse" issue. Their conversation can be found at: http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum...=57&t=19392 .

 

This issue has also been brought up previously on these forums at http://forums.sega.com/showthread.php?t=328675 .

 

It would be nice to have the issue acknowledged, if not addressed.

I think the chances of Obsidian actually addressing anything related to Alpha Protocol are pretty damn low.

You mean, other than a confirmed patch?

 

I don't have an ounce of knowledge regarding anything eyefinity, I'm afraid (is it even supported?).

Speaking of the patch.. has there been ANY word at all on the patch other than them saying that they are working on it?

I just broke down and bought this game despite the bugs wand apparent issues it has. Now I wish I had seen this thread or the one on WSG forums first because I play on an triple screen Eyefinity setup as well. I am also having the mouse issue with starting menus and I can't get past the skills selection screen. Pretty sad that it is all nice and good for Eyefinity type stuff yet has mouse issues. Hope they get this suppose patch out soon and it fixes the issue, going to shelve the game for now.
