Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

Native support.

All widescreen resolutions are Vert- by default.

To make the game Hor+ follow these instructions:
Open the file %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Waylanders\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\Engine.ini.
Add these lines:
[/script/engine.localplayer] AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV.
While this corrects the scaling, note that it may cause unintended behaviour like exposing the unfinished main menu area or the character model going beyond the menu boundaries.

Ultra/Super-Wide (21:9/32:9) Specific Solution & Issues

Native support.

FMVs are 16:9 anamorphic. In-game (rendered) cutscenes are 21:9 anamorphic with a blemish (Vert- in 32:9).

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues

Spanned HUD. FMVs are significantly cut off due to the Vert- behavior.

4k UHD Specific Solution & Issues

Native support.
