Spinxster Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 I have a 3440x1440 100mhz monitor on a Display port cable going to a 1080 Geforce. I have spent the past 4 hours trying to fix this issue. So far I have tried the following fixes that I found on the forums: 1. Use CRU to set EDID to only show the correct resolution 2. Installed a 3440x1440 monitor driver in windows. 3. All windows settings and nvidia settings are set to 3440x1440 100mhz 4. SWTOR ini files all have the correct resolution, in game resolution also shows 3440x1440. Have I missed another possible fix? I really want to start playing this game again, but this bug has completely demoralized me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kodrac Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Is the cable direct or are you having to use any kind of connection converters? Those can have compatibility issues and throw things out of whack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spinxster Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 I'm using a high end display port cable so that I can get 100mhz refresh rate. It's going direct from video card to monitor. Downgrading my cable to HDMI is not worth it just to play one game since I don't have an issue with anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPrime Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 Have you tried setting the game to windowed mode instead of full screen? I had issues with the 21:9 aspect ratio at times, and it bugs out after patch most of the time. I find that if I run the game in window mode I do not end up with the squished screen after a patch. That being said the 21:9 aspect ratio is awesome not only in this game but many other games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, tried windowed, windowed full, and full Seems like this issue has been around for a while, not sure why SWTOR hasn't adapted to just getting the resolution settings from the desktop like most games :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recall someone switching to HDMI and it corrected and when they switched back to DP it stayed corrected Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
