For anyone looking for a temp. fix for UWD, it's the usual HEX's which needs to be replaced in game's executable.
Developers already said they will include UWD support in a patch.


For the FOV you'll also need to modify UE4 configs:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\TheObserver\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor\
Open Engine.ini.
Add the following and save.

Enjoy!

Hey thank you.
Just a question in general, what FOV do you guys recommend for 21:9 users? I have a Acer Predator X34 now and I only sit an arms length away from the screen (pesky stand).

You can't change it to be a custom value afaik.
There are some parameters floating but from what I've tested I didn't notice any change, it is just maintaining the same 4:3 vertical FOV as that above parameter does.
That's what I understood is happening same as in recent Hellblade game. Devs would have to attach some FOV on camera that could be altered to solve this I think.

When I run your 3440 exe in "steamapps\common\Observer" it gives me the following error:

"Failed to open descriptor file '../../../steamapps/TheObserver.uproject'"

Any idea what I may be doing wrong? Should I have pasted your file in another location or am I missing a folder?

Wrong location, it's down here, overwrite original (probably make a backup first):
