It's ready! Let me know what you all think! I listened to everyone, and went with a simple design with out a lot of graphics. I'll put pictures up later. I still have a lot of good ideas so keep an eye out for the next update. I'm going to take a break and get some gaming on! :toast:

Get it here! and it's in the OP.

Yea, nothing major, but I just need to correct the spelling on it. I noticed something last night in on the video tab, if you pick ("low",medium","High", or "Ultra") what ever you change in the drop down box won't take effect. If you make changes you need to select "Custom" and then the game will see the changes. I'll take care of that in the next update, but until then everyone just set it to "custom" on the Video tab. :toast:
 
I checked this out today, it's nice.

Will try it out tonight. I have been using your V1.0 still...
 
Edit: Fixed it, apparently it was cuz my config files weren't complete since I hadn't loaded after the update yet.

If you get an Unhandled Exception Error, this could be why :D

Thx for your hard work.

According to your config, DX11 was not enabled by default. That can not be right?

DX11.1 is enabled in battlefield by default, but you can use DX11 if you don't have a DX11.1 card for better performs.

EDIT: I'm working on a better way to implement the console commands, because there is a lot more and you don't want to enable them because they are enabled by default. With those console features you just want to disable them in the config file.

Yea, after the update it sets your overall video to "Auto" and in the config file the video height, and width are set to zero, but once you load in it updates those fields. You can use the "Text Editor" in the "BF4 Config Utility" to manually save those settings before loading in or just load into the first time and let the game fill them in. Thanks for the helpful response buddy. :toast:

Since, the latest "Battlefield 4" update it sets the video settings to "Auto" and it sets the resolution height and Width to zero ("GstRender.ResolutionHeight 0" and "GstRender.resolutionWidth 0". You can load into a game and let it auto set your best resolution or use the Text Editor on the "Config File" tab and change those to settings manually. My "FOV Calculator" just looks at the "Resolution" and "Desired horizontal FOV" to set the "FOV" setting. I'll fix this in my next version release. I hope to have a new release out today, but both of my daughters are still feverish from the flu.. So, I'm home on sick duty.. :toast:

C&c 2013

Hello,

Can you please also something for C & C in 2013 produced since the noses want to involve no surround for 3 monitors.

Thanks
