21:9, 16:10, 4:3 WORKS!!! :) HOW TO - [Update 2]
This is my fix for how to run DR3 on 21:9 Screens. :)

Open the File "viewport.txt" in your Installed Folder "Steam\SteamApps\common\Dead Rising 3\data\datafile\" and put the list for all aspects into Viewport.txt:

/////////////////////////////////////////////////////

cViewportShape MainView_16x9
{
X = "0"
Y = "0"
Width = "1"
Height = "1"
Aspect="1.777777778"
}

cViewportShape MainView_21x9
{
X = "0"
Y = "0"
Width = "1"
Height = "1"
Aspect="2.383333333"
}

cViewportShape MainView_16x10
{
X = "0"
Y = "0"
Width = "1"
Height = "1"
Aspect="1.600000000"
}

cViewportShape MainView_4x3
{
X = "0"
Y = "0"
Width = "1"
Height = "1"
Aspect="1.333333333"
}

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

and finally save it.

Or you can download the viewport.txt from here:
http://www.file-upload.net/download-9485169/viewport.txt.html

Simple download and replace the original file with this.


Now you can play in Fullscreen. :) 21:9 works fine!!! :)
16:10 and 4:3 users must first download a resolution fix tool so that you can select your native resolution. First of all, you need to download this program, Custom Resolution Utility:
http://www.monitortests.com/cru-1.1.2.zip
Unzip it, then run CRU.exe. Pay attention to the two circled areas in the picture below:

Main Menu & Loading Screen 2D Pictures supports only 16:9, you can see in the background (left&right side out of 16:.9) the 3d world (looks buggy), but ingame it works fine after loading the level. :) Have fun!

Loading Screens are buggy as hell but its working, cheers m8!

Now I have to get that fps uncap working somehow.

yes because Loading Screens and the Main Screen Images supports only 16:9 (you can see 3d in the background). But ingame it works fine without loading screen bug in the background. :) have fun! :)

Thanks mate, you should write this as a guide:)

why all this stuff? just select your resolution from the graphics menu drop down (be sure to turn on vsync, after that you can select your monitor refreshrate + all resolutions).
SteelWalker Sep 4, 2014 @ 10:41am 
@Possi: yes, you can select your resolution for 21:9 or 16:9, but without this fix it will not work! :) Because it's not supported! This modification makes it possible to playing in fullscreen on 21:9 and 16:10 screens! :)

Hi all,

Is there any way to change the resolution? it doesnt allow me to change to 1366x768 (my monitor native resolution) and force me using 1280x1024

Thanks guys!

i dont know how you can claim in game works corectly. after i changed it to work on my 1920x1200 16:10 monitor the edges of the in game ui are cut off. not completely unreable amount but enough to be noticeable and annoying.
