Yea that works.

Where do I place the interface.ba2 file and is there anything else I need to do to enable it?

Just dump it in, \steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data

There will already be a file called interface.ba2, I just renamed the original one and put in the new one. You will need other mods to fix power armor and the scope.

it will auto run in 3440x1440? Do I need to set the resolution and fullscreen exclusive in the ini?

I used this configuration tool to set my resolution. If you don't set your resolution in the ini it won't work correctly. I also use boarderless windowed mode not full screen.http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/102/?

Ci7rus wrote:I'll try messing with power armor a bit more but afaik it kinda has the same issues as the sniper scope in that if you want it to go all the way across the screen the only way to do it is to force it to stretch. For now though, you can try experimenting with the ini tweeks described here.

As for the shade behind the compass and other parts of the UI, unfortunately nobody has found out how to get rid of all of it yet.

Edit: I put the default power armor hud back in on the off chance it plays nicer with the ini edits or anything else you might want to do with it:

2560x1080

3440x1440 (this also has the default sniper scope)

Using your file and your .ini fix it goes well! <3

A small update, I removed most of the background shade from the button bars and I think I managed to get all the popup messages from the main HUD as well. I also fixed the wonky load screen issues and fade.

2560x1080

*NEW LINK*3440x1440

I forgot to repack the new scopes file for 3440x1440, nothing is really different except that I removed the background shade from the button bar. I'll play around with it some more later to try and get it to scale properly like the 2560 version for those people who don't want to just get rid of it entirely.

okay, the first look is great. i'm testing it with Scope black box fix.

You mean the shadow rendering issues are from running in 21:9?

Well there goes my hope of fixing this game.


Edit: Great work on the HUD fix though; it's really come far in the last week.

Only issue I noticed in my short test was that the text corrupts itself when mousing over things in the menu. It only happens for an instant though. (2560x1080)

I was probably talking about the background shade for the UI.

If you're talking about the black box issue that appears in 3440x1440 then change bComputeShaderDeferredTiledLighting=1 to 0 in your Fallout4Pref.ini

Nope, I mean this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pwKYXn1-7M and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdRWmj0-FIg

Tried to google about it but came up empty. It's extremely annoying and is probably contributing to my framerate drops, as my FPS drops (by 5!) when the shadows aren't being rendered correctly.

Thought it might be because I wasn't running the latest 'optimized' drivers, but now I am.. and there's been zero changes to IQ or performance.. except now that the game's internal Vsync is bugged and locking me to half my refresh rate (30fps).

Edit: Disabled ingame vsync and discovered something very interesting: The game loads orders of magnitude faster. I'm talking like 4 seconds on a fresh startup to load into the wasteland, and a second to reload the save. This is down from 30+ seconds on fresh startup and 10+ seconds on a reload.

Now to hope someone makes a mod that disables Vsync during loading.. which will probably never happen. Maybe I can hotkey RTSS somehow to turn off the cap? There's gotta be some way to workaround this.. It's ludicrous that the game even functions like this.

Another update, this time the compass shade has been fixed.

Thanks for help!

Hey all,

New to the thread, and a bit late it seems. I've been suffering playing FO4 in a small window for the past couple days. Can anyone recommend a good place to start looking in the thread to make changes to the ini file and/or downloading mods? I'm a bit lost.

Best,

Hi, I just got the game, so far I have only made one tweak which was to play in 3440x1440 in borderless "full screen". I am having a bug with the bottom 80% of the screen darker than the top. Has anyone seen this bug before or know a fix? I haven't done any interface tweaks yet. Attached is a screenshot.

Download this mod to help make changes to your .ini files.

The answer you're looking for has been posted on this very page:

Change bComputeShaderDeferredTiledLighting=1 to 0 in your Fallout4Pref.ini

Thank you! Sorry I missed it, I read the thread yesterday and didn't really notice anything for that problem. Couldn't find anything googling and searching FO4 reddit. Of course the almighty Ci7rus would have an answer in minutes lol

I could kiss you Ci7rus! Thank you for fixing this mess
