| Aspect | Rating | Comments | |------------|------------|---------------| | Resolution scaling | ✅ Full | Supports any custom resolution. | | FOV correction | ✅ Good | Eliminates stretching, provides proper horizontal view. | | HUD alignment | ⚠️ Partial | Radar and ammo counters mostly correct; some text may still clip at ultra-wide (21:9). | | Menus & cutscenes | ❌ Unaffected | Menus remain 4:3 letterboxed; pre-rendered cutscenes stretch or pillarbox. | | Stability | ✅ Stable | No crashes reported when installed correctly. | | Multiplayer | ⚠️ Unknown | Community fixes rarely tested on remaining LAN/tunngle setups. |

Or in the game install folder:
\Conflict Global Storm\system\preferences.ini

Add or modify these lines under [Graphics]: If AspectRatio isn’t respected, force it via: CustomWidth

ResolutionX = 1920
ResolutionY = 1080
AspectRatio = 16:9
FullScreen = 1

If AspectRatio isn’t respected, force it via:

CustomWidth = 1920
CustomHeight = 1080

Cause: Changing the FOV affects mouse perception. Fix: Cause: Changing the FOV affects mouse perception

The widescreen fix works perfectly at 3840x2160 (4K). However, two issues arise at ultra-high resolutions:

Performance drops: The game engine was not optimized for 4K textures. You may experience stutter when smoke grenades detonate.

For 8K (7680x4320) – do not bother. The HUD will be invisible, and the game will likely crash due to memory allocation limits in the 32-bit executable.
