Metro Exodus 21:9 Fix/Solution?

[OnkelJupp]

Metro Exodus supports Ultrawide only with stretching a 16:9 picture and cutting it off.

Is there a possible Hex Edit for it?

Maybe there is also an option to change the FOV? (You can't change it inGame)

I am currently using the Steam Version.

Thank you in advance!

Hor+ by default . For FOV Go to C:\Users\<YourUserName>\Saved Games\metro exodus\<YourNumID> > Open user.cfg > Search r_base_fov 60 change to desired value . it seems limit to 90

hi all ! yeah ultrawide im metro is NOT good im on 3440x1440 and it looks terrible ! when looking at aurora wheels from the side of the screen its so stretched they look like eggs :/

I can not make a normal screenshot (3840x1080) in the game, it is compressed to 16:9
window mode without frame does not work

[Evil_Raven]

the game is very stretched along the edges of the screen in 3840x1080 32:9

[Evil_Raven]

I understood why screenshots are created 16: 9, it's all because of dx12, with 11 everything is OK

dx12 exclusive fullscreen is broken this make false scaling aspect ratio for now stick with directx 11

How is DX12 nVidia Surround? Any support? I'll probably buy this game sometime this week.

[susahamat]

it seems works well under dx12 on 48x9

[Haldi]

Yeah....

The funny thing is, their Benchmark DOES work correctly with DX12 -.-

Edit: Lol found a Solution:

FoV is NOT the issue...
Search for "r_res_hor"
it's probably stuck on 1920.
Simply chance that.
In my case 3840

I will give it a try thx, Haldi.

[caiowb]

I'm having stretching problems too.
"r_res_hor" is at 2560 and dx11 or 12 makes no difference.

[TrBu]

You might still want to change the FOV in that config. As with the previous Metro titles the FOV is given vertically, with a 60 vertical FOV equaling a 90 horizontal FOV for 16:9 displays. According to https://themetalmuncher.github.io/fov-calc/, the same FOV for 21:9 displays would be 47. Using an FOV that is too high can cause screen effects, such as blood, to not scale properly. I also disabled motion blur by changing r_blur_level and r_game_mblur_scale to 0. Looks perfect to me using these settings on DX11.

[caiowb]

Fully stretched still. I guess some got lucky.

Have any of you guys noticed that the scaling is a little off with the backpack screen? Changing categories from individual weapons requires you to hover maybe 2cm left/right of the weapon to go next/previous.

3440 x 1440 21:9 here!



What worked for me (DX12 & 11) was keeping r_base_fov @ 60 (NOT 47 - this did the cropping thing someone mentioned.)

I then also disabled blur using r_blur_level and r_game_mblur_scale both @ 0.

Finally

r_res_hor 3440
r_res_vert 1440

This made it like @susahamat's picture EXACTLY.

it seems works well under dx12 on 48x9

Very nice! Did you happen to use any of the fixes posted to get those results, or is it native support?

[susahamat]

native hor+

I also had issues with a stretched screen at 3440x1440 with a Vega 64. What finaly fixed it for me was to enable Virtual Super Resolution in Radeon Settings (Radeon Settings -> Display -> Virtual Super Resolution ON)
