He posted 12ish hours ago saying he needs a couple more days to nail down an initial release on a 21:9 fix.

Huh...this is most likely nothing, BUT for some reason GeDoSaTo seems to be working with dark souls 3?! It's recognizing the game, and the bare minimum of changing resolutions in GeDoSaTo are actually working and being applied to the game.
I thought it was never updated for directx11 support?
I'm going to full around with it more tonight, but I'm just throwing this out there for anyone interested in throwing crap at the wall to see what sticks.

I've tried my best to withstand this game at 16:9 but I can't take it, the FOV is just too limiting. Really hoping we'll get a fix soon. Can't believe it's 2016 and we still have this shit.

You can try this for 2560 x 1080:

1) HEX
Find this HEX string:
Code:
800700003804

Change it to:
Code:
000A00003804

2) WINDOWED mode
Make the game run in windowed mode, either going in game settings or change the GraphicsConfig.xml
Entering resolution to 2560 x 1080
(C:\Users\YourNAME\AppData\Roaming\DarkSoulsIII)

3) Use Borderless Gaming
Get rid of window borders.

// The .EXE is too big to bother uploading it :thumbdown:
// I don't know how safe is to play ONLINE with this. So it's up to you.

// I find out that there's a catch, the game isn't optimized for 21:9, when you look at some enemies out of the 1920x1080 frame, you will see their animations stutter pretty much like the border frames of 2560x1080 are running at 10 FPS :D

OK it's strange, first I found out when I ported to Farron Keep Perimeter, there is a sequence when two Darkwraiths are coming to fight the other enemies near entrance to the Abyss Watchers. And for these enemies I've seen the stutter animations, out of the 1920x1080 frame. So I start to look for other things, but so far no problems with other creatures, npc, world animations.

EDIT: Too slow, but don't want to delete the whole text. took me some time :think:

Okay here we go. In the comment section under Souls Unsqueezed in steam forum someone explained in pieces how to get rid of the black bars. This method worked now 3 times in a row for me (load game, close game, start again, and so on)

(description is for 21:9 2560 x 1080)

( not needed - modify your ds3.exe and replace 398EE33F with 26 B4 17 40 (already known from other games))

- modify your ds3.exe and replace 800700003804 with 000A00003804 (this will make possible to set 2560 x 1080 in window mode. without the change you can only set it to 1920 x 1080)

- modify your GraphicsConfig.xml (appdata - roaming - dark souls III) to:

<config><ScreenMode>WINDOW</ScreenMode>
<Resolution-WindowScreenWidth>2560</Resolution-WindowScreenWidth>
<Resolution-WindowScreenHeight>1080</Resolution-WindowScreenHeight>

- download "windowed borderless gaming" and install it OR you can set your GraphicsConfig.xml to read only and change to fullscreen later in game options

- start dark souls 3, it should start in window mode. check in options if the resolution is set correct ( http://i.imgur.com/T9zWu1U.jpg )

- load your game (you should see some flickering image on the right side while the item descrition is displayed)

- it should now load without the black bars.

- click your windowed borderless gaming icon in your task bar. add window, click back to dark souls 3 and press f3 OR as mentioned, set the game in options to fullscreen.

game should be now in fullscreen without any black bars :wave:

testet it right now before posting a fourth time and it loaded again without black bars.

EDIT: DSR works as well. When you set your GraphicsConfig.xml to read only and don't use "windowed borderless gaming" to "force" fullscreen you can set your game to fullscreen in options an choose whatever resolution you want to. If the game is started without the black bars, the bars won't come back until you restart it, independent which resolution you are choose

You DO NOT need to modify the bits for UWD.
Code:
- modify your ds3.exe and replace 398EE33F with 26 B4 17 40 (already known from other games)

Just write the sequence on keyboard when you have the 80 selected. What program are you using for editing?
