Sudden trouble with extra wide format monitor

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

Just wondering if anyone has a clue about why this happened suddenly.  Im running a 29 inch dell extra wide format monitor which worked great throughout dayz standalone so far... gave me awesome peripheral awareness and felt amazing. 

Trouble is, around 3 days ago I got disconnected during play and when I logged back in all my settings had been changed and/or reset... now I cannot achieve the extra wide format display any longer.  It shows the correct aspect ratio 2560:1080 (21:9), but everything is just fattened out to make it stretch to fill, rather than previously it having normal dimentions but extended lateral view.

any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Try bugging around with display settings and see if any of them change to conform to your screen better.

Make sure you have the correct aspect ratio selected along with the correct resolution. Also, try playing with the FOV slider a little bit.

At least im not going nutz...

 

Im also having alot of trouble with sunflare right now... or whatever you call the dimming of the brightness when bright objects (sun, fire, bright sky) are nearby...

 

Its bugged for sure.  Standing next to a wall that obscures part of the skyline will brighten everything too much... then peeking around the wall will include the skyline and the entire field darkens too much...
