Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hate to bump an older topic, but has anyone yet figured out how to get the FoV slider worker while in Surround? Mine's reded out like the ones mentioned in this thread.

It looks like the game stores most of the info in the registry. I know you probably have, but did you try setting the fov in single screen and then just adjusting the res? I haven't played this is ages, and I can't even remember if I change the FOV (although at 75, I'd imagine I would have).

Yeah, gave that a try. Doesn't seem to effect the Surround FoV at all.

Just got the Directors Cut edition and have the same problem, I can't change FOV when using Surround resoulutions, the option to change FOV gets locked at default 75.
Is there by any chance a fix for this?

Anyone looking to for a fix for 21:9 monitors i have found one

So the main issue with the game is when you have 21:9 resolutions is that the game stretches the image so you need to fix the aspect ratio so it stops the stretching

Cons of the fix (so far haven't played beyond the start of the game will up date if i find more)

Cutscenes stay in 16:9 (dose not include in engine scenes)
Menus stay in 16:9 (that means inventory and map menus)

Fix
You will need to edit the registry
Run regedit navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Eidos\Deus Ex: HRDC\Graphics\ (Or Deus Ex: HR if not Directors Cut i think only have DC)
Find AspectRatio and edit it set it to decimal

Ok this was the hard part to work out (thanks to Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light Widescreen Solution & Issues for the formula)

The formula is:
AspectRatio (decimal) = Width Divided by Height x 10000
So for Example 2560x1080 is 2560 divided by 1080=2.37037037 x 10000= 23703

Setting the AspectRatio to
23703 for 2560x1080
23888 for 3440x1440
Your game should be in 21:9 now (don't worry about the black bars ratio works in game)

That seems to have fix the stretching issue in engine so happy 21:9 gaming

*Deus Ex: Human Revolution 21:9 fix ultra wide fix*

That 21:9 fix is great! It works for the original version of Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I've updated the listing to cover applying the 21:9 method for both versions.

The FOV setting is unlocked in windowed mode, so simply switch to windowed mode and make it borderless. I have added instructions to the report. This works for both the original release and the Director's Cut.

AMD Eyefinity HUD correction doesn't work in windowed mode (the HUD spans across the output), but everything works and has the correct aspect ratio etc.

Does it get reset when you switch back to exclusive fullscreen? Playing with windowed borderless isn't an option for me because of SLI.
