21:9 aspect ratio not supported

Open OmicronsHolocron opened this issue 3 years ago • 9 comments

Operating system and version: Windows 10 1809

Is this for single player or multiplayer? Both

Description of the bug (and if possible, steps to reproduce the bug): 2560x1080 aspect ratio not supported. /r_mode "-2" and "-1" using r_customHeight and Width make the game resort to the default 800x600.

Happens in fullscreen and windowed mode.

What did you expect to happen instead? Ultrawide aspect ratio for game.

Note that when using any aspect ratio wider than 4:3, the HUD will be stretched. It looks acceptable at 16:9 but it's quite annoying at 21:9.

This limitation is found in most id Tech 3 games out there, although some source ports have resolved it (but I haven't seen that for Jedi Outcast/Jedi Academy).

I play with hudFiles 1 so stretched HUD isn't much of an issue. A bigger problem is FOV/camera distance can be wonky but mods like JA++ fix that.

Is windows configured for any window scaling?

Nope

So it says 100% in settings? Certain resolutions are automatic different scaling, like 4k

Aye, says 100% (Recommended)

Check for failures in console before it successfully chooses 8x6.
