Ultrawide Support ?

[CaMpeR]

I'm using a 21:9 monitor and i can't believe DS3 doesn't have UW support... I looked for fixes and saw people using mods to make it run in UW, but some of them got banned apparently. I'm planning to just edit the hex values with HxD to make the game run at 21:9 but is it possible to get banned for editing the game's main .exe file ? I'm not interested in playing online or anything else, just want to slay some big bois in 21:9 fullscreen.

Alternative Hex edit:

Hex edit: Go to --> ...\steamapps\common\DARK SOULS III\Game\DarkSoulsIII.exe
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 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>

Yeah but it's essentially changing the game files which the game might think as cheating, anyways thanks for confirming.

I think hex edits get you banned.

use this instead: https://steamcommunity.com/app/374320/discussions/0/3454730619114578470/#c3454730619116762962
(read my posts there)

Souls Unsqueezed is a mod made on purpose for ultrawide screens, plus it fixes a lot of stuff.

P.S. unfortunately that mod isn't compatible with watchdog. unless they've been made compatible lately and I didn't know.

Hey, did you ever get banned? I have a 3840x1600 monitor and I'd like to play in ultrawide but don't want to get banned.

Use the souls unsqueezed mod like cridius recommended.

No i didn't. Tbh i did not play that much and i only played singleplayer since mp doesn't really interest me but yeah it works without any problems.

... so I really have to worry about getting banned if I try to run this game in UW resolution.
Thought this game is from 2016 and not 2000.

Actually replaying DS:R and was looking forward to replay DS2&3 but this sucks.
After playing DS:R at 3440x1440p you simply can not go back to 16:9 again.

Thats so disappointing that they didnt patch in UW support for this master piece. -_-
