Ultra wide screen support

Post by Majick »

Hi,

Does SOWWL support ultra wide screen, 21:9, 1440x3440 resolution? If so, does it stretch the horizontal axis or does it give a wider fiedl fo view?

Thanks

Jon

In terms of it being 'supported' I will take a guess because we were never asked to test those resolutions or a wider FOV and say no. I do remember someone using multiple monitors before to get very wide screen but I think there is a max supported resolution although off the top of my head I cannot remember what.

Thanks for the response Con20or. I've ordered the monitor anyway so I'll give it a try and report back :)

The 'full screen' setting in options may help.
