Confirmed to not support 21:9 native. It releases tomorrow, this is my humble request for a 21:9 patch.

I second this request. I would love a 21:9 patch <3

Third! It's a huge shame they don't include ultrawide, considering Borderlands 2 has had the feature for years.

Kinda goofy that patfenn84 said that -- I just installed Borderlands GOTY Remastered on my PC, and the 21:9 resolution is natively supported, and I've set the FOV slider in the game's options up to 105+ and it looks and plays great. No menu cropping, no stretched HUD. My 34" LG ultrawide display is happy, and so am I!

Take a look (my FOV is at 110, I think):

Ok...? So I can't even select 5760x1080 in the launcher it only goes up to 1920x1080, why are they pretending everything works natively? Did you mod the config file for your resolution?

Yeah, I'm confused. At least in the launcher, I can't pick anything higher than 2560x1440

Here is the fix it is really easy, but it looks pretty legit only the hud is aligned wrong from what I can tell with a some offset but everything is 100% scaled correctly it seems:

[ Fix : get any Ultrea HD resolution to work ]

- set the game to 1920x1080 1st and launch the game. Once the game launches set all the settings you want, FOV, graphics etc and get off the bus with one Dude.
- Close the game down and exit
- open the dir: C:\Users\[your name]\Documents\My Games\Borderlands Game of the Year\WillowGame\Config\
- open this file in a text editor: WillowEngine.ini
- do a Find on: ResX=1920
- change that =1920 to any resolution you want or the ResY=1080. So if you want 5760x1080 it be:
ResX=5760
ResY=1080
- save the file once you set the rez you want
- Boot up the game, the FOV 100% works but of course the gun models FOV is not correct it's just like BL2 and the Pre squeal but it is fine.

That is it, seems to be legit no idea how to align the HUD on triple screen but it is no big deal that they are offset only by a bit(really I don't care).

While the resolution itself is supported, the top part of the screen is cut of by like 20%.

Here are some 5760x1080 screens of BL1 enhanced no fix vanilla:





The update looks nice!

You are 100% correct it massively cuts off the vertical, I just tried the OG game and it is a big diff:





Still it is totally playable but yeah it's not perfect(a lot of the height is gone if you compare), is not in the OG BL2 and the Pre sequel FOV setup like this as well and the Vert is jacked up too? I could be wrong but I think it works the same way.

The game launched 1920x1080 for me, but in-game I was able to pick my desired 3440x1440 resolution.

3440x1440 (21:9) is confirmed Vert-

So is this vert-?

Yes, it' is vert - sadly I hope this is fixable

Yeah it is brutal, I had to stop playing it @ 5760x1080 made me barf , other than that is is amazing so it be a shame if it could not be fixed(fingers crossed).

I tried the following and it did nothing which is odd:

[/script/engine.localplayer]
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV

What about the Borderlands GOTY - Enhanced Edition? I heard a lot of people have been accidentally running just Borderlands GOTY instead of the enhanced edition.

It's a separate game install that shows up in Steam and easy to know if you are running Borderlands GOTY Enhanced Edition(besides the name is diff in Steam) since the exe is now 64bit and uses DX11. One can easily switch to task manager and see if Borderlands has the (32 bit) beside it and then know that they are using the old game and not new one.

This didn't do anything for me.

It works, but it breaks the sprinting FOV. Seems to increase to over 140 whenever I sprint

make sure to compare with original .exe not patched because it does scaling fov in all resolution

Ah yes, my apologies. I just compared with a unpatched version and the patch did work. One thing though, the sprinting FOV goes completely bananas on 120 with the patch. Is that a permanent side effect or is it fixable?

sorry i've no idea w/ exact value fov when sprinting

Replace BorderlandsGOTY.exe in the game folder - BorderlandsGOTYEnhanced.7z

• All supported resolution unlocked in the game menu
• Hor+ (set FOV — 70 to get the same FOV as in not Enhanced version)

Nice will try this when I get home.

Oh.... i did get the feeling the FoV was making me dizzy while playing in 32:9 with FoV slider on the maximum.
Now that makes sense...



Ty, i'll try the fix after i've completed Borderlands 2. Only on level 61 now

Awesome! Dude I really can't thank you enough and really appreciate all your fixes that you do, it works perfectly. BL1 is one of my favorite games so this means a lot to me. Let me know if the email you PMed me a while ago is still legit I want to PayPal you a $100 as a small thank you. Just PM me your email if it changed so the money goes to the right spot.

Fixed version with FOV at 110 @ 5760x1080:





Holy shit is it night and day from the default, I don't get motion sickness anymore feels good Man.

Thanks again!

Jackfuste for the rescue once again.
Works perfectly. Thanks a lot

jackfuste's fix works for 3440x1440 (21:9). It's Hor+ now.

Is there a way to disable head bob while sprinting? I've been having to scroll through my weapons to prevent it when I sprint, otherwise I want to barf.

lol it's a pretty jarring head-bob isn't it. So jerky it makes it feel like the framerate is bad.

Side question, are you running reshade or something? Your game looks really colourful

An easy way to do this on Nvidia and AMD GPUs in direct in their driver software:

For Nvidia crank the Digital vibrance to 80%



I am not on my AMD dev box right now but I am pretty sure it is under the Color settings and they call it [ Color Saturation ] it works exactly the same way. Juice it to like 150% that is = to Nvidia's 80% if I remember correctly. Both of them own if you need the color boost, it is pretty rad actually.

Good eye, yes. I discovered ReShade last year and I use it as much as I can. It makes a huge difference in visual quality. In Borderlands, the colors look more rich and vivid and the textures look sharper and more gritty.

The filters I used for Borderlands are DPX, LumaSharpen, Colourfulness, AdaptiveSharpen, Clarity, FXAA, and Vibrance. It has been my experience that filters that work well in one game tend to work well in most other games. It's not a foregone conclusion, but it's usually true. You have to experiment.

I also removed the border around everything using the same trick from the original Borderlands. In Windows 10:

1. Go to C:\Users\<username>\Documents\My Games\Borderlands Game of the Year\WillowGame\Config

2. Open WillowEngine.ini

3. Find DefaultPostProcessName=WillowEngineMaterials.WillowScenePostProcess

4. Change to DefaultPostProcessName=EngineMaterials.ScenePostProcess

32:9 looking fine. Thanks jackfuste!

Yeah....
Is it any better with a wider FoV? or does it get worse.
I've realized there was head bobbiing and was like "please no.... make it stop"

Thanks for the tip friend, it's much appreciated ^^

Love the effort this community puts into eyefinity support! The .exe patch looks great, for some reason though my left screen is mirroring the wire frame image of the right screen; all ghostly like...strange I know. Anyone having similar issues?

Replace BorderlandsGOTY.exe in the game folder - BorderlandsGOTY_no_shake.7z

• Camera shake is disabled at sprinting

Disable in-game FXAA, use FXAA in the driver or ReShade.

You are so incredible, thank you so much for all the time and effort you dedicate to others. You are such a blessing!

I don' t know if you are the person that fixed this or not, but either way, I took the time to register an account just so that I can thank you for Fixing the Camera Shake/ Head Bob while sprinting. I've been searching everywhere for a way to fix it. I've requested help on the steam forums, the official gearbox forums, countless of cheat engine forums, then someone linked this to me. I've never been able to play any of the borderlands games because of this problem that the devs have ignored all these years. Idk if this fix exists for borderlands 2 but now I can at least enjoy borderlands 1. Thank you so much. I'm really grateful. You have no idea how many people you will actually help play this game. Thank you thank you thank you. If you haven't can you make the same fix for borderlands 2?

It's awesome without camera shaking! You rock

Getting some odd vertical lines on the 2 outer screens dudes. Any thoughts ?

Is FXAA on? That might be the same bug that was mentioned earlier.

I would just like to point out that the cel shading is 3X as thick as it should be horizontally. It makes things look a little wonky. I have included a screenshot for example.

Could be that dude. FXAA is off after reading the earlier posts, I got the wire frame effect similar as someone further up.

Disable Ambient Occlusion and see if that fixes it. I believe I had to disable AO in the Borderlands video settings, then activate Ambient Occlusion in Nvidia Inspector to get those lines to go away.

In ReShade, I recommend SMAA instead of FXAA because it produces superior results. Also disable FXAA from the in-game menu as it's not needed.

It was Ambient Occlusion, thanks for all your help.
