The new compendium update removed the -addon command, so this does not work anymore. There is currently no workaround that I know of. Perhaps someone else wants to look into a solution?

It's really odd that three years later, the game still doesn't support ultrawide resolutions properly due to HUD not scaling.

Here is my solution:
1:Download the mod file 'Reborn_Mods.rar' which in this link https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4z_-cgFrS03SzJhWDNUYWpSQ28 or the attachment below.
2.Extract it and put the folder 'Reborn_Mods' to \Steam\steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game
3.Open gameinfo.gi on \steamapps\common\dota 2 beta\game\dota by Notepad
add 'Game Reborn_Mods '
between
'Game_LowViolence dota_lv'
and
'Game dota'
4.Open DotA2 and enjoy it, remember to select the default HUD

It's working fine, no need -addon command

KNOWN ISSUE: CANNOT DOWNLOAD ANY REPLAYS WITH THIS MOD, BUT THE DOWNLOADED REPLAYS PLAYS FINE.

I have been using yhc1994's fix successfully for a while. Thanks so much!

However, I have also been having unexplained client crashes in the same period. Wondering if anyone else using this fix has experienced crashing. It could be something specific about my setup, but I'm not sure.

Here's my specs:
i7-4790K Devil's Canyon (not OC, stock cooler)
8GB AMD Radeon R9 390 man. XFX
ASUS Z97-A LGA 1150 Intel
LG 29UM67 21:9 main monitor (DP) with ASUS VS247 secondary (HDMI)
2x8GB Corsair Vengeance Pro DDR3 2400MHz
2x256GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD (OS and Game installs)
EVGA SuperNOVA 220-P2-0650-X1 650W 80 PLUS PLATINUM
Rosewill BLACKHAWK Gaming ATX Mid Tower

Patch 7.00 revamps the entire HUD. This reportedly fixes previous issues with 21:9 (and possibly some other aspect ratios).
