How To Set Custom Resolution

Don't see your resolution on the preset list in game? Here's a guide on how to change resolution to any you desire.

Step 1: Looking for GameUserSetting.ini

There are 2 ways of getting there:

1. Copy and paste the following directory into your Windows Explorer:
C:\Users\{YourUserHere}\AppData\Local\DH\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor

2. Use the Run command (Search "Run" on Windows Search or use WIN + R. Type in %appdata% and click OK. This will take you to the Roaming folder inside the AppData folder. Click on "AppData" at the directory bar and there you will find the Local folder.


Look for the folder "DH" > "Saved" > "Config" > "WindowsNoEditor" > GameUserSettings.ini

Open GameUserSettings.ini with any text editor program. I used Notepad in my example.

Step 2: Changing The Resolution

Change ResolutionSizeX and ResolutionSizeY to your monitor's resolution.

Example:
ResolutionSizeX=640
ResolutionSizeY=480

Optional: Toggle fullscreen on or off using FullscreenMode. 0 = off, 1 = on

Mess with the other settings only if you know what you are doing.

Save your changes and close.

Step 3: Making the file Read-Only

An optional but recommended step is to make GameUserSettings.ini a read only file to prevent the game from changing your settings should anything occur.

Right Click on GameUserSettings,ini and click on Properties. At the bottom, check in "Read-only"




Click Apply then OK. Start the game and you should see your settings applied!

As a dev myself this is what you DONT want to do.
please note.. In game if you set to windowed, or borderless window mode the game FIXES at a low res as it was created in.

this is 4:3 and 16:9 but nothing else.
also 1080 is max.
anyone adding different res options that arent in the game, are messing with stuff they dont understand.

Example, can I force a 4:3 1080 into a 16:9 2160 format? Yes
Should you? Heck no!

What you are doing is clipping images, or stretch and expanding them. this is NOT good.
and never set files to read only. Sigh.
also you can always use borderless fullscreen on any res. Just need to know windows.
I cant recommend this. Stick with what the game has, any other options you will be losing quality or quantity or both, as well as adding mem leaks and input lag.

You usually wanna do this if you have a custom resolution set on your monitor that the game does not support. In my case, I experimented with this and put in 4:3 native resolutions to run on a CRT monitor I have hooked up. But it can also be used for ultra widescreen monitors too if you don't want to use Borderless Fullscreen.
