2560x1440p looks terrible?

[Gingerbread]

Hi,

I have an ultrawide 1440p monitor and this game at that resolution is really stretched out. I don't see an option to change the render scale or anything like that so I'm wondering if there's any solution? I feel like I am playing the game super zoomed in.

i just got the game and its at 2560x1080 and is locked at 4:3

Isn´t 1440p 16:9? My 1440p monitor looks fine.

No, 16:9.

Mine is a 34" ultrawide so I am guessing 21:9?

Are you sure its 2560x1440? That´s 16:9. I think yours might be 3440x1440p.

If I set it to 3440 x 1440 tho it doesn't take up the whole screen, there are black borders on left and right side

The game isn't made for ultra-wide, your screen stretches it when it uses a 16:9 ratio to 21:9, that's why you shouldn't use an ultra-wide as a main screen, a lot of games don't support it.

Works fine with the hex edit fix..

Hex edit:

Look for 800700003804 and change it to 000A00003804 (2560x1080) or to 700D0000A005 (3440x1440)

INI edit: Go to --> C:\Users\...\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsIII\GraphicsConfig.xml

Change to this Values for 3440x1440
<config><ScreenMode>WINDOW</ScreenMode>
<Resolution-WindowScreenWidth>3440</Resolution-WindowScreenWidth>
<Resolution-WindowScreenHeight>1440</Resolution-WindowScreenHeight>
<Resolution-FullScreenWidth>3440</Resolution-FullScreenWidth>
<Resolution-FullScreenHeight>1440</Resolution-FullScreenHeight>

Make the File under Properties READ-ONLY

Start the Game and in the Menu press ALT + RETURN (makes the Game Fullscreen and HOR+)

This worked thanks! The edges are low fps but hardly noticeable. I hope i don't get banned for this though

you won't , this is editing graphics preferences, not anything in the game code
