Widescreen Gaming Forum

So I just gave the hexedit a try on the official release... I said &%^* it, if Blizzard wants to ban me over making the game work for my monitor then go ahead... I could NOT get the previous hex edit to work. HxD only found one 16:9 string (there was mention above of two of them in the main .exe file during the beta) and I changed it to 21:9 and no dice, it looks like the game wants to start in 21:9 then it forces itself back to 16:9. Any suggestions? I'll be your guinea pig!

Yeah, its locked down. even pocked with cheat engine in it, but my skills weren't enough to change anything :/

We really need backup on this from the ultra wide community, this is bigger than just Overwatch. http://us.battle.net/forums/en/overwatc ... 0744334240 There is a thread going here, it's one thing to not support 21:9 it's another to ban a fix the community comes up with simply so we can play on our resolution. Please help by voicing your support for 21:9 within, and if anyone finds a fix let me know!

Seems like you can only reply to that thread if you own the game, and I'm not buying it until it has 21:9 support in one way or another.

So I guess Flawless widescreen isn't coming through, and no fix in sight :\

Hey guys,

I'm new to these forums but have been using your DB for a good few years now. Very helpful.

I've created a few posts on both PCMR sub reddit as well as /r/Overwatch.

Drop your feedback into the overwatch post as the developers are more likely to see it.

I have come up with some sort of fix for ppl which will like to get rid off black bars till Blizz fix this =)

i have come up for temporary fix if you cannot stand thous black bars on sides (this is for Nvidia users)

Sample from Predator x34:

1. If your desktop is not native 3440x1440 then make one in Nvidia control panel and make it active on desktop http://prnt.sc/b9axi1

2. then go to "Adjust Desktop Size and Position", check mark on Full-screen, Perform scaling on: GPU and check box on "Override..." Set resolution to 2560x1440 http://prnt.sc/b9axb2

3. Start the game, go to Options and then Video, change resolution to 2560x1440 and WUUALLA

If you want to get more perfect quality then increase "Render Scale" (oc if you have good horse power of gpu)

I'll pass on a stretched screen, and I think Blizzard has made it pretty clear they don't intend on changing this.

Blizzard has made no indication they intend to fix this but they made no signs they were going to fix Heroes of the Storm either they just did it out of the blue.
