Custom resolution issue W:ET

[Faithless]

Hi everyone, recently i upgraded my old monitor AOC 32" curved FHD 240Hz to a Samsung Odissey G5 32" curved 165Hz QHD 1440p and i noticed that when i open the game exe the game resolution opens and on a second half monitor, i mention that i've got two monitors, one 32" and second 46". I updated the command setting resolution in the executable file to "+r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "2560" +r_customheight "1440" +cg_fov "115" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart". If i decrease the customwidth and customheight to a lower resolution e.g 2460x1370 the game will fit to screen, but if i put the exact resolution the game it opens above full screen. I forgot to mention that even with my old monitor i had the issue but i fixed decreasing the custom width and height but i would like to play the game in the native resolution of the screen.

 

Could you know how could i fix this issue? many thanks

try to add r_fullscreen 0

 

 

Or install ETLegacy and use  r_mode 18  for 1440p resolution

Hi Siwex, i tried like you said i added r_fullscreen 0 to the console but still the same, i enabled adaptive sync from my monitor menu and now the game runs in fullscreen but it runs at 60fps...

Hi there Faith! 

might be you're just missing the cvar

 

seta r_customaspect             1

 

so first try , add it to the .exe properties (the run command)

 

if no luck , i'd say use the ETLegacy client (but you can try with the old 2.60b), then put this in a config file:

 

seta r_mode                     -1
seta r_customaspect             1
seta r_customwidth              2560                                    
seta r_customheight             1440
seta r_aspectratio                 1
seta r_fullscreen                 1

vid_restart

 

 

Remove the vid_restart from the .exe properties.

 

Disconnect the 2nd monitor for a first run, 

start the game and run the config

Hi, can these settings solve the problem?

[ZeroZeroDb]

I did some research...
check out the NVIDIA guide; it might help you solve the problem.
"To use additional displays in addition to the displays used for Surround"

Sorry for asking a little bit off topic question but why do you consider going from 240 Hz monitor to 165Hz monitor an upgrade? I think the panel type (VA) and latency (1ms) are same for both monitors (might be wrong tho...)
