Yep, can also confirm that reapplying the fix for 3440x1440 works great for me :)

Hi, can you fix in 1280x1024 (5:4) to remove black bars?

Hello guys I'd like some help with this. Basically 21:9 works. I boot in windowed mode BUT when I switch to fullscreen ingame it minimizes the game. After clicking it a few times it opens it again, back in windowed mode. Any idea what's causing this? Such a shame, cause it's running very smoothly at 2560x1080.
I have a gtx 970, maybe something with nvidia settings?

Thanks for your hard work so far!

Edit: Not sure if that matters, but I'm on 2560x1080.


If you use SUS & set "stretch HUD" to "true," it'll move the HUD elements closer to the screen edges, but it does stretch them out a bit. Worth the tradeoff imo.

Is there any way to get the game to run in a borderless window with the 21:9 fix? Or stop it from setting my display to 60hz when it goes into fullscreen mode?

I know the game is locked to 60fps, but right now if I disable vsync I'm getting some tearing.

Has anyone started a thread somewhere on an official forum requesting a fix for these problems? I realise all the other games didn't have support, but it seems like they've ramped up their Port qaulity and there may be a better chance to get official fixes :)

I have sent an email to Nanco Bandai ([email protected]) and i asked about this.
Still waiting an answer.

We should put all our complaints somewhere, i don't know, or send multiple emails...
Maybe if each person sends an email, they may notice us.

Try using this: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =663922936

No need for to hex edit the exe with this either.

I can confirm that Soul Unsqueezed 0.1.0(http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/f ... =663922936) works perfectly for 21:9 without black borders!
So i think this is the better alternative to the hex-edit of the .exe, cause far less risk of getting banned.

Try "Borderless=false" in the soulsunsqueezed.ini.

For everyone, whose game is crashing when starting ds3 with soulsunsqueezed, try FlipMode=false in the soulsunsqueezed.ini. I got that problem, i think it's exclusive to Windows 7.

By the way - did someone get the "HUDOffsetX=" to work properly? On my side it didn't change anything, no matter what number im using...

Hi, guys. Thanks for the effort everyone.

I have a question: when using the Souls Unsqueezed, the screen is filled (3440x1440), but it's actually stretched. It doesn't look the same as the unstretched editing of the .exe.

Am I doing something wrong?

Yes, something is wrong. I'm using SUS at that res. and it looks perfect. Did you look into the configuration notes on the Steam page?

Additionally, you need to do this:

When you install the mod for the first time, it is suggested that you set the resolution in %AppData%/DarkSoulsIII/GraphicsConfig.xml to match your desktop.

Has anyone tried using Souls Unsqueezed for higher resolutions?

I'm interested in getting the game to run at 5760 * 1080 but haven't given the software a try yet. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had to download the 0.2.0 test dll to get Souls Unsqueezed to work without showing the Windows taskbar, but seems to be working now for 21:9 fullscreen+borderless=false. Windowed+borderless=true still shows the taskbar on top, as does fullscreen+borderless=true. The hack could definitely use some work.

The HUD is either stuck in the middle of the screen or scaled in an ugly way, but can't have everything I guess.

EDIT: 0.2.1 works windowed+borderless.
