Flawless widescreen mod ban?

[VooDooRem]

Will get banned for using Flawless widescreen mod? I don't PVP, I don't invade and thanks to some miracle I haven't been invaded yet so basically I have never had an online interaction but I like read the messages and see the little white ghosts around so I would like to not switch to offline if possible. Thank you in advance!

yes. im pretty sure you will get banned.

Probably likely to get soft-banned.

[fauxpas]

Yes, any detectable mod will get you banned in online mode.

[alumlovescake]

Yes. Due to the games use of EAC, you will get banned for ANY MOD.

So sadly you are forced to use offline mode

Disable EAC and you'll be fine.

any mod for this game is considered cheating. You are DESTROYING miyazakis vision for the game! If he wanted the game to have ultrawide support he wouldve added it!!

Why can't FS whitelist flawless widescreen? It's not even a mod or interferes with the game files/folder. Moreover, it's an addon that is available for other console ported games that don't support ultra wide screen mode or change FOV.

I may be partly to blame, as I joined in the chorus of opposition for the sheer fact that seeing more of your surroundings is an advantage that is bought. This encourages paid advantages in gaming, and I'm not here for it. And yes, it was specifically about circumventing intended "surprises" around corners and off to the side.

I mean, it kinda has it implemented already as for the first 20 seconds when I play the game it is widescreen but then it "remembers" and pops in the blackbars.. so weird, almost like someone at FS forgot to untick the widescreen button :)))

I think disabling that can be considered more as "cheating" than just runnin the game on the entirety of my screen :)))

No. More to the point: Why would FromSoft or ANY developer for that matter whitelist a 3rd party mod that they don't have any control of the code? That would be a massive security risk not just to Elden Ring PVP, but Windows itself. It'd be easier and much safer for them to just disable the black bars and reposition the UI elements as the game already has everything it needs to support ultrawide aspect ratios.

Disable EAC and when you done in game, move your offline character to online :)

Thank fug they I have no desire to play on the "official servers", given how gestapo-like they are about banning people for modding. If the game didn't have Seamless, I doubt I'd have stuck with it after a couple of weeks...

BTW, does a "ban" means summons do not work -- period -- or is it like DSII, where players are placed on a "soft banned server" to play with one another?
