Split Screen looks bad (fixed)

[HDeDeDe]

I've been searching for a while and I haven't found anything useful for how to make the split screen not look like stretch hell. I've tried setting it to vertical split which helps a lot, but there's still screen space that's unused and the HUD is barely readable. If there's some kind of mod or config files I could mess around with that would be a great help.

If it helps at all I run the game at 1920x1080 with everything maxed out except Anti-Aliasing is turned off.

And I know for a fact 2 monitors won't help. The game only uses 1 monitor.

Actually, 2 monitors can work perfectly if you're able to do it right. I've done it before and there was no wasted space at all.
Stretch your desktop display as one desktop across 2 displays...Run in Windowed mode and stretch it...or try fullscreen(windowed)...i don't remember exactly, but it can work well

I'm assuming you mean Extended desktop mode. I'll try it out and see how it looks. Although I would prefer a solution that only requires 1 screen, as I usually only play split screen on my projector, this might work for the moment

I've been struggling with this for a while honestly but now everything seems to be working perfectly.

Black ops 3 split screen PC has two quirks:

All resolutions add Black bars to the sides or top of your screen. Only comes into play when you start a game so you'll be constantly switching your display scale to fit the screen. GPU scaling doesn't work.

The performance is terrible.

How to fix these quirks:

Run the game in 1024x768 resolution. This is the only resolution that removes the black bars.

Set the rendering scale as high as you like in the options menu, I typically do 150% but even 200% doesn't seem to hurt performance too bad.

On your display set the image to stretch to fullscreen, or use your graphics card to scale to fullscreen (better).

Adjust in game advanced graphics settings to max, then down from there if necessary.

Set FOV to at least 100.

This works surprisingly well for me, removing the black bars and giving me a 50% fps boost. Zombies and gameplay is all really clear, but the in game UI text does get harder to read but it's a small trade-off in comparison.

Honestly I'm getting 90 fps at basically 1080p, full screen with a friend at max settings. 100x better than even the console versions. (I7 and a GTX2070, performance will vary).

If you're a cod zombies fan looking to introduce somebody or play mods with friends, This is 100% a huge improvement.

Hope this helps!

Thanks a lot my guy, sucks that the game doesn't have these options built in but this is a great work around, shouldn't be to hard on a 1070.
