How to remove graphic distortions in ultra-wide mode Everspace 2?
As soon as the player selects the ultra-wide graphics mode in the settings and the monitor supports it, distortions begin. The picture gets a little closer, all objects lose clarity and it becomes not so pleasant anymore. At the same time, everything is fine in standard mode, but the widescreen monitor is not involved in this process in any way. There is a lot of discussion on the forum on this issue and a solution has already been presented that has helped many Everspace 2 players.
To resolve the issue with distortion in ultra-wide graphics mode, follow these steps:
- Go to the game save folder. This folder is located along the path: C: / Users /[USERNMAME]/ AppData / Local / ES2 / Saved / Config / WindowsNoEditor /. Instead of “Username”, you must specify the username on your computer, under which you log into the system.
- In this folder you need to find the “Engine.ini” file.
- Open it through standard notepad. Right-click, select “Open With”, and then use notepad as an application.
- After the text document is open, you need to add the following lines to it:
- [/script/engine.localplayer]
- AspectRatioAxisConstraint = AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV
- Save your document before exiting.
- Start the game again and select ultra-wide graphics mode, the distortion should disappear.
