Fullscreen Stretching?

[@willoneill]

Hey everyone,

I hadn't ALT-ENTER'd my game into fullscreen for a long time, but I did just now and noticed that the game now automatically stretches itself into widescreen and doesn't look nearly as good as it used to when it would just not stretch horizontally like that at all.

Is it in my head that this didn't always happen? Is it something that has changed with the migration of RPG Maker onto Steam?

Is there any way to make it not do that without a script like Fullscreen++?

I just don't understand why anyone would think this would be a better default setting than the way it was before.

Any help or insight is appreciated, thanks!

(Wrong) Fullscreen Stretching may result from your Graphic card settings. It's a matter of which "app" is responsible for the resolution settings: Monitor or GPU (if prior to "ingame settings")
Maybe You find here the right solution for Your Grahpic Card:

(I have a 16:9 monitor unsing Nvidia GTX 680 (x2), ,my desktop settings are "keep ascpect ratio" (instead of "fullscreen" or "no scaling") If I alt-enter native 4:3 windowed games (like most RPG Maker games) I have now issues with wrong stretchings, just black bars left and right.
maybe this helps ;)
