Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

EverQuest II supports widescreen resolutions natively, offering you any resolution supported by your monitor. Custom resolutions can be achieved by editing eq2_recent.ini.

Code:
cl_screenwidth 1680
cl_screenheight 1050

Unfortunately, like it's predecessor, EQ2 is vert- with a fixed fov.

The UI has a fixed resolution and does not scale or stretch (edit: may not be true with the current game 2012; there are options for hotbars/windows). Many custom UIs exist at www.eq2interface.com that do scale with button size options, expanding hotbars, fully movable windows, etc
