I just setup an EyeFinity rig with 3 24" LCD's, resolution is 5760x1200.

I've tried proquake in GL and D3D mode and both say that res is unsupported.

I'd love to see what super wide screen quake looks like with an FOV of like 170, lol.

Is this you magnus?

do you like techno? you would if you had robot ears.

[=peg=]

I dunno, but I'd stack two of them screens on top of each other and go for 3840x2400 res

Are you afraid of it? Uhh, no, I just don't like techno. You would if you had robot ears. Uhh yeah probably.

Most clients should, but whether or not your 3D card is up to it is another matter. By my calculations you're going to need about 128MB for framebuffer memory alone; and that's before we even load any textures.

Even if you can run at this, actual support is going to be dependent on what modes your card reports to the API. If you can configure it to present all 3 screens as a single display device the client is more likely to pick it up as an available mode (but no promises).

I have an ATI 5870, it can definately do it. It has 1 gig of RAM as well.

I also have the displays already grouped together as one single display, 5870x1200 res.

I haven't tried darkplaces yet, maybe it has it in the available modes.

GLPro doesn't list the mode. D3DPro doesn't even show a vid mode menu and crashes if I try to select the ghost menu where video settings should be.

Here's a vid that describes what EyeFintiy is and has a nice demo using it playing left for dead.

Try DirectQ (link in my sig). Firstly it's D3D9 so it might be more compatible than either OpenGL or earlier D3D versions and secondly it has support for an unlimited number of video modes.

If any OpenGL engine could do it I would guess DarkPlaces might be the best place to start.
