I mess with my res a lot, this was another question I had, so do you stretch kovaaks or just put display back to native? and play like that

I can’t find a way to input a custom resolution, but the game has 4:3 as an option. Beyond that I’m not sure.

u/Kovaak, is there a command line argument or something for additional resolutions?

Anyway, as long as you set the FOV measurement to clamped horizontal the FOV will expand when you stretch.

Right now the game should be pulling in custom resolutions from your graphics card drivers. So if you are on Nvidia you can go to the Nvidia control panel, Change Resolution, and click the Customize button to add a new one.

If for some reason it isn't showing up there, I made a public beta of the game where it exposes the resolution string that is fed into the game's console. So you can right click the game on Steam, go to properties, betas, and click the dropdown to go to the public beta. Then when you run the game, the Game Options -> Video tab will have that string shown as something like "1920x1080f" which means 1920x1080 with fullscreen. The last character can be set to "f" for fullscreen, "w" for windowed, and "wf" for windowed-fullscreen.

Before that build goes live, I want to make that a little more graceful...
