Via steam:

Right click the game in your library --> properties
on the General tab --> Set launch options
copy & paste: -CustomResolution:enabled -r3440x1440x32 into the text box, replace 3440x1440 with your desktop resoltuion if required
click ok, close and launch the game

Thank you guys for all of your efforts. Please give us a fix for the 21:9 aspect ratio (both 2560x1080 and 3440x1440).

Yea. I'm not sure how or even if I can fix it. I think that's something that will have to be fixed by Hayden with FWS. Hopefully soon these menu "hacks" won't be needed because FWS will take care of it. BUT! Like has been said already, damn near everytime Skyrim was updated Hayden's FWS plugin had to be updated.. it was a cat and mouse game. I'll be keeping these modded menu's around to be used when that happens while we wait for Hayden to (hopefully) fix it again.

It was me.. it was Metro Redux. 0x080000F6 (Metro Redux)
I've not been running them this evening while messing with the menus, but they worked "OK" last night for a bit.. not great scaling and not 100% bug free but the only oddity I noticed was tires were weird colors from far away and then went to normal closer up. However I was able to mostly run 60FPS with them @ 5760x1080 where I'm around a steady 30-35 with bumps to 45 sometimes without them.

I've been running around doing some questing and fixed/smoothed out some more things along the way. Removed some files that either were not necessary or broke things worse.

OH! and the lock picking crash with haldi's Fallout4-Interface.ba2 I believe is because the lockpickingmenu.swf in it seems to be corrupted. I extracted his ba2 and when I tried opening his lockpickingmenu.swf with the SWF decompiler it fails. I redid it in mine and I've picked a few locks with it now with no trouble!


[THE GOODIES] :triplewide:
For anyone new who finds this you first need to change "sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\" to "sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\, INTERFACE\" in your fallout4.ini (My Games/Fallout 4/)

Then extract the following zip into the Data folder where the game is installed.

That's it! Play it! Let me know if you find anything weird.


This is awesome on 5760x1080! You ROCK man! :cheers:

Thanks for the fix!

For some reason I cant get bezel corrected resolutions to work in full screen - does anybody know why? Works fine in borderless windowed though!

P.S. has anbody got any FOV advice for playing on triple monitor on this game? 60 seems about best for me..

I'll reopen it late when I'm back on my PC. We couldn't know that this new version of the engine has hardcoded aspect Ratio.



Haldi wrote:I used this tool: http://www.loverslab.com/topic/54891-f4-ba2-unpack/ to un and REpack the Fallout4 - Interface.ba2

How I recompile modified files into a .ba2 to prevent the need of activating modified files in the ini (it's written in the readme)
Use CMD and like this

quickbms -w -r "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Tools n Stuff\QuickBMS extractor\f4.bms" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Tools n Stuff\test.ba2" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Tools n Stuff\Interface"

The test.ba2 needs to be the original interface.ba2 so it will be modified.
Use force to overwrite the files which are bigger.
The game might crash tough when trying to start.

I'll make a new interface.ba2 with all fixes after lunch.
We gonna send it to outa space!

like Q,E,Tab,W/S,A/D in your following pic. I think I've "fixed" everything but that at this point.

Not sure.... might be the PromptMenu.swf or the fonts_en.swf or the DialogueMenu.swf or even the ButtonBarMenu.swf or MultiActivateMenu.
At least you only need to start he main menu and try to load a game to know which one it is xD

i HATE those Boxes.... haven't found them either yet -.-

I've tried to repack those into a .ba2 but somehow the file is different and causes Fallout4 to crash at startup :(
Not sure if there is an .ini Option to prevent that or if the repack messed up something.

mhmm... let me just try repacking ALL files xD

On a single GTX970 which isn't overclocked, and an i5 2500k at 4.4ghz, I get around 45fps average on high-ish settings (5894x1080)

Haldi,

Do I just drop this file next to the other .ba1 files in the Data folder, and now remove the interface line edit from the ini file?

edit: yes :)

By the way, how come the HP bar is still off to the left screen?

you replace the original .ba2 file and you still need the interface .ini edits to Center your hud !

Sorry I'm a bit lost. All I originally did was change 'sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\' to 'sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\, INTERFACE\' so that it picked up the modified .swf's. Now that im using your ba2 file I can just remove this cant I? And also delete the .swf's i put in the interface folder as they will just stop your ba2 from being used?

You mentioned a line to centre my hud? Which line is that. Everything seems to work okay for me except m,y health bar is on the bottom left of the left screen still.

Image

edit: just looked back on this thread, is this what I need to do?

"Fallout4.ini" in myDocuments with the Line:
[Interface]
fSafeZoneX=250.0
fSafeZoneXWide=1300.0

edit2: yes it was, fixed! thanks!
