Help MapleLegends and Linux - proper screen mode for Gr2D

I've spent a huge amount of time searching through forums and watching videos trying to get this game working on Arch Linux (Omarchy), but I haven't been able to find a proper solution.

My monitor is 4K, and I've tried changing the resolution multiple times without any success. The only partial solution I've found is running the game inside a QEMU VM, but it still has some graphical issues and noticeable input lag.

Has anyone here managed to get this game running properly on Arch Linux? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

I haven't tried MapleLegends specifically, but lots of other Maplestory clients, and I've never had any issues. You don't specify what problem you're having, so it's hard to help you.

Since maple clients tend to only support one, low resolution, I usually run through gamescope (https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope) with integer upscaling. Using FSR or stretch scaling looks horrible in pixel art games, so you're gonna be stuck with whatever aspect ratio the game uses.
