This fix works! Thanks for sharing :onethumb:

Can you go into the other changes a little bit more (besides the black bars I mean).?

yw, btw heres the updated version 1.04

well there are not much other changes, there is just one constant wich sets the ratio for cutscenes (also ingame dialogs) and i noticed some hud elements are placed correctly then (like tutorial boxes). sadly some loadingscreen seems broken.

Make a backup of your witcher3.exe and then replace the moded one with the original. The .exe can be found in GOG Games\The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt\bin\x64.

did someone look through the file to make sure it's safe? i'm really paranoid after the GTA V mod having trojans in it.

thank you so much for your effort zens, very appreciated.

Thanks a TON zens, I have been waiting for this fix! Does it work with Steam as well though? I'll try it soon as I get home!

Also, is it really complicated to patch yourself? And if not, can you PM me or post how to do it as to future proof ourselves in case they keep patching the game and you aren't able to keep up? Thanks a ton!

This is awesome! Are you just going to keep posting here when an update is needed or do you have somewhere else you post to? So I know where to look when the updates come.

Thanks Zens, you are my hero! :D

Only problem I still have is that I use a 5760:1080, which a 16:3 aspect ratio.
Could you please, please make an exe for that ratio as well?

Never mind, I just found it by simply comparing the old and new exe file with an hex editor and just tinkering with the code.

Anyone who wants to have the file for 5760:1080 ratio just pm me.
