Enhanced mouse control and 21:9 Widescreen support is now live!

Hello pilots, CCP Redcape here,

In-line with community feedback, today's patch adds support for some highly requested features, including 21:9 Widescreen support as well as NVIDIA Surround and AMD EyeFinity support.

Enhanced Mouse Control

We’ve added a new method of mouse control, which allows continuous turning with mouse movement without the need for a mouse lock key.

This control scheme means that you can continuously and smoothly turn your ship in a direction by moving the mouse pointer away from the center of the screen. To stop moving (or adjust the direction), simply move the pointer back to the center of the screen. We’ve also added some new visual feedback to keep you informed on when you are turning at the maximum speed (full lock).

Fully Supported Joysticks

This patch also brings extended HOTAS flightstick support on PC; providing Valkyrie combat default keybindings for a wide range of popular joysticks.
