The Witcher 3 21:9 Broken!

Post by TheWitcher »

The game is 21:9 - but the cinematics and all conversations/any cutscenes play out in 16:9 :doh: :doh: :doh:

What in the heck...can anyone please fix this atrocity?

HUD is broken as well. Cutscenes are boxed out. Personally the HUD bothers me more than anything and I'd really appreciate a fix for that.

seems like the hud is forced centered on 16:9.
It works pretty well in Eyefinity/Surround, but i guess they didn't think about 21:9 users.


Ingame Cutscenes are Pillarboxed? Left and Right Black border and 16:9 format?
Screenshots please :)
We gonna send it to outa space!

Check out the other Witcher 3 thread for the HUD fix to spread it further out.

hey guys.
Anyone here thinks he has the time to add 21:9 Screenshots ? :)
Witcher 3 Detailed Report
There is a Savegame file attached in the DR, if you have the GoG version of the game, unzip it and place it under "This PC->Documents->The Witcher 3->gamesaves" should work with v1.01 (Day 1 patch)

There is no fix yet..just a HUD fix ...which is the least annoying compared to pillarboxed scenes

Hi guys, is anyone trying to fix the Witcher 3 cutscenes? For GTAV the Flawless Widescreen fix was out on release day, which was really cool. But does anyone care about W3?

Thanks in advance, I would really appreciate it.

Yeah, I can only concur, the boxed cutscenes really breaks immersion for this game. By far the most annoying thing for me.

Really hoping someone is working on a fix for this. I would if I knew how! Those black bars in 21:9 totally suck.

here is my patched exe, it corrects the value for cutscene (removes black bars left and right) and some hud elemts to 21:9. together with the changes "cisce" mention, fixes all problems. just videos bink i guess are staying 16:9
