Heya!
I currently have a 32:9 aspect ratio screen, its great but I only enjoy playing games at 16:9 to make sure my fps stays great and I can run SOT on higher settings then like I do with all my other pc games.
If you could add a setting in video settings to change our aspect ratio I would enjoy that a lot.
Thank you very much,
Cheers Yundaz
@captain-coel Windows mode does take the fps down by a lot for most players, and I like to have exactly 1920 x 1080 in order to have the same mouse sens at all times if that makes sense. But mostly I get fps of 100 and up in fullscreen and only 45 - 60 in window
@electricknights Heya, allow me to change aspect ratio ingame would indeed mean I would have black bars on the side of my widescreen monitor. Changing monitors aspect ratio in the monitor menu messes the whole ui and scale of things up rather then scaling it down to the correct aspect ratio. Most games especially shooters have this option to set the resolution to for example 1920 x 1080.
@yundaz I did try out all other settings and nothing seems to work and keeps going back to my monitor aspect ratio which is 32:9. Another thing is one of my friends has the same problem and he cannot stream Seo of thieves because the recorded screen would be too wide to make it enjoyable to watch.
I had this problem and searched around without any solution, even stumbled across this thread. Thankfully I did figure out a fix and wanted to share since I didn't see it anywhere else.
Look into a program called Borderless Gaming. You can run the game in indowed mode and then use the program to manually set the window size. Once the size is set, restart Sea of Thieves and the aspect ratio should match the size of the window you set
For example, on my ultra wide monitor, the resolution is 3440x1440. I used Borderless Gaming to set the window size to 2560x1440 and it the game displayed perfectly.
You also need to specify the x and y coordinates of where the top left corner of the window should be. Since I wanted my game centered, I set the x to 440 and the y to 0.
All these values will change depending on your screen resolution.
