Saints Row IV is an action-adventure video game set in an open world environment. It is developed by Volition, Inc. and published by Deep Silver. It was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. It is the fourth installment in the Saints Row series, after the release of Saints Row: The Third in 2011. As in previous titles in the series, the player controls the leader of the Third Street Saints, who has now become the president of the United States. The game returns to the fictional city of Steelport from The Third and takes place five years after the events of The Third, focusing on the Saints fighting an alien invasion as well as simulations of the gangs and enemies from their past.

Solutions & Issues
Widescreen Solution & Issues:

The FOV is a bit low in general but can be increased with a mod.

Ultra/Super-Wide Specific Solution & Issues:

Some cutscenes are hor+, while others are windowboxed and simultaneously vert-.

In the game folder, edit display.ini and change "LetterboxEyefinity = true" to "LetterboxEyefinity = false", which will set the previously windowboxed cutscenes to be pillarboxed but still vert-.
After making the config change, Rose's tool allows to remove the black bars and correct the field of view.

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues:

The ultrawide issues are also present in multi-monitor, though no config edit is necessary. Use the same tool as for ultrawide.
