Ultrawide support

Hi GGG.

Many of us use Ultrawide screens, as such there was limited support for this in POE and POE2. There was a workaround by using an ASI to enable ultrawide. However this is now being flagged as a map hack / cheat. Removing it makes the error go away.

I understand that any injection could flag as an exploit but just using it to enable us to use the full resolution for our monitors enabled a far greater customer experience whilst playing POE2.

If this is now not allowed and GGG would prefer us not to use it is there any plans to add native ultrawide support?

I do not want to get banned or contravene any EULA.

Thanks in advance to any reply.

There is ultrawide support, namely 21:9. Anything above that breaks the game and got patched out.

Previously it was possible to manually set the aspect ratio of the Path of Exile client to be very short and wide, allowing you to see an unintended amount of the level at once. A limit needed to be set. Because of server serialisation distances, this maximum aspect ratio is currently set to 21:9. This is the widest that we can currently go before we start hitting the cutoff where entities and effects vanish. We are looking at being able to increase this in the future.

The game isn't designed with these resolutions in mind and likely it will never come back. Obviously, using a third party "fix" is not allowed - if you get banned for doing so, your fault.

Thanks, its a shame. However have to put up with black bars etc.

Time for another 160 page thread trying to explain a simple truth:)

In poe UW view does not give any "unfair advantage" because meta builds already do damage at ranges bigger than the default FOV, or have crazy movement speed. If GGG is so worried about fair play, go look into mandatory price checkers and trade bots. And full time bots farming atlas for you.

Factually wrong.

They're already doing that. The so called "Ultrawide fix" that is against the ToS included. Take the hint ;)
