WSGF

Over 23 years and still going strong, which wouldn't be possible without our community! Just updated the forum and website software components to the latest, including security patches from just a day ago. #WSGF #php

Our community member Survivalistic documented a simple no-mod way to get the new Silent Hill: Townfall to remove the black bars in 21:9 and wider - https://steamcommunity.com/app/1636440/discussions/0/568172123492925391/ #ultrawide #SilentHill #gaming

Does anyone have the contact info of the WSGF star modder CrimeBoss? #modding #gaming #WSGF

Going by the screenshots shared by our community member Eizig on Discord, it would appear that Halloween may be the first Illfonic game to have proper ultrawide support without vertically reducing the FOV? #ultrawide #Halloween #MichaelMyers #horror #pcgaming

It's like going from 60Hz to 120Hz. There is no coming back for me 🫡 #pcgamer #pcgaming #ultrawide

A sign of true dedication when WSGF.org users log in after 15 or 16 years on the website. #WSGF

Our community member Retro has been building on Lyall's Granblue Fantasy: Relink ultrawide and FOV mod, sharing the progress on Discord. Join the many other members discussing it at https://discord.gg/FcVYWgh #ultrawide #GranblueFantasy

A suspected conflict between a third-party module we use and the core framework caused errors when trying to register on our website. This has been resolved.

Our old-school members Delphium and Zencyde recently shared photos of their WSGF magnets from around 2012. The WSGF was founded in Texas, while some staff members are in the UK. #WSGF #UK #Texas

New update for MOUSE: P.I. For Hire includes official widescreen support. Though it is explicitly announced as imperfect, our community would take that over no ultrawide (and wider) support. Other developers should take note. store.steampowered.com/news/app/241...

We're running another giveaway of Steam and GOG game codes on Discord. Join for a chance to win as we celebrate the summer season - https://discord.gg/J5ZqnQzvNt

Our prolific Discord user and modder Kamiccolo got hacked today & sent out messages containing phishing links. Please remember not to log into anything other than the website you want to log into. If logged out, manually type the official URL and log in there. Enable 2FA too. #Discord #security

The latest update for Reanimal adds ultrawide and HDR support, implemented by our community member Pumbo. We like mods, but this might be even better. https://steamcommunity.com/games/2129530/announcements/detail/520870020121624917 #ultrawide #HDR #gaming #Reanimal

We are looking for people who could provide screenshots of the most recent Call of Duty games in 32:9 or wider, as well as screenshots of the same view in 16:9. This would benefit our website and the whole widescreen community. Please come to Discord to discuss. #ultrawide

It is a good week in ultrawide gaming. Lyall released a mod for Death Stranding 2, while mana2000 documented a way to enable 32:9 support in Diablo 2: Resurrected, available on our Discord. If anyone would like to extend that to our website, the door is open! #ultrawide #gaming

As with every major game that has flawed ultrawide and wider support, Resident Evil Requiem has resulted in a noticeable increase of activity on our Discord. Praydog's REFramework already allows to remove the black bars - https://github.com/praydog/REFramework-nightly #ultrawide #ResidentEvil

After improving the ultrawide support in Control and contributing to Alan Wake 2, our community member Pumbo had a hand in improving the ultrawide support of Alan Wake Remastered - https://www.alanwake.com/story/alan-wake-remastered-pc-update-2026/ #PCgaming #AlanWake #ultrawide

GOG's newest video talks about them modding Cold Fear and touches on enabling the game to support widescreen and multi-monitor resolutions. The video also features a familiar term to refer to FOV scaling. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1mqVEF-JRbE #GOG #gaming #modding

If this concept goes mainstream, games with hardcoded resolutions and mods lacking adaptive calculations will not be able to offer the impressive effect of the field of view extending in real time. #ultrawide #laptop #monitor

In the words of our old-school staff member

To celebrate the holiday season, we are going to be giving away many game codes on our Discord. Come join for a chance to win one every day! https://discord.gg/J5ZqnQzvNt

A new contributor has documented how the original Warcraft 2 scales in widescreen and wider, thanks to a mod that finally makes that possible at all. https://www.wsgf.org/dr/warcraft-ii-tides-darkness #Warcraft2 #gaming #ultrawide

Cloudflare is currently down globally, so our website and many others are temporarily inaccessible. If this continues, we may have to re-evaluate our reliance on this service. https://www.cloudflarestatus.com/ #cloudflare

Winter Burrow is out, and though it has no native ultrawide support, using the Party Animals tricks seemingly works to address that. https://www.wsgf.org/dr/party-animals/en #gaming #ultrawide

Our quick initial report on ARC Raiders is up on the website. Counting on the community to fill the gaps on 32:9 and 48:9 support, among other things. https://www.wsgf.org/dr/arc-raiders #ARCRaiders #gaming #ultrawide

New report on our website is on BoobyRogue: Tumor Takedown, an upcoming roguelite game themed around fighting breast cancer. It works great in ultrawide, but has flaws in 16:10 and multi-monitor. https://www.wsgf.org/dr/boobyrogue-tumor-takedown #gaming #roguelite #ultrawide

On a podcast from yesterday, our friends GOG talked about their Preservation Program and mentioned absent ultrawide support as one of the signs of game deterioration (as noted by our community member Phantom). #GOG #gaming #ultrawide

Splinter Cell: Pandora Tomorrow is now released on Steam and Epic, but we already have a Detailed Report on it. It was first submitted in 2011, so it may need revisiting though. https://www.wsgf.org/dr/splinter-cell-pandora-tomorrow #SplinterCell #Ubisoft #Steam #EpicGames #gaming

Alien: Rogue Incursion Evolved Edition, the non-VR version of Alien: Rogue Incursion, released today. According to its developer, the game supports ultrawide resolutions, though we have not independently verified this yet. #Alien #gaming #ultrawide

Newly announced Deus Ex Remastered has ultrawide, multi-monitor, and 4K support among its native features. #gaming #DeusEx #StateOfPlay

Ys vs. Trails in the Sky: Alternative Saga showcases remaster features including improved textures, 60fps support, different aspect ratios (16:10 on Steam Deck, 21:9, and more), and much more ahead of the game's launch on October 10: www.rpgsite.net/news/18499-y...

Borderlands 4 is another game set to have ultrawide support. The latest 2K games have protection from tampering, significantly limiting the games' modding capabilities, so the extent of native ultrawide support might be crucial here. #Borderlands #PCGaming #ultrawide

Anno 117: Pax Romana continues the trend of PC features trailers including native ultrawide support. Ubisoft has a solid track record in that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AG3UHf4hzX4 #PCgaming #ultrawide

Our community member Para shared this video of a 32:9 handheld console. Is it too wide or just right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sehucj61GuE #handheld #gaming #ultrawide

Hollow Knight: Silksong is to support 21:9 resolutions, as reported by our community member rafa_edition. #gaming #ultrawide #HollowKnight

Dying Light: The Beast is to feature native ultrawide support, as pointed out by our community member Nanaki. #ultrawide #gaming #DyingLight

The latest Battlefield 6 trailer covers its PC features, which include ultrawide and 4K support. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMBBXqu0OLE #ultrawide #Battlefield #PCgaming #4K

Digital Foundry covered the ultrawide mod of our community modder Lyall in their new Metal Gear Solid Delta video - https://youtu.be/Qs4MQVAk_Zo?feature=shared&t=777 #ultrawide #MetalGearSolid #gaming

One of the next best things a developer can do if they have not added native ultrawide support yet is elevating a trusted community mod which offers that. The developer of the new indie game Heartworm has done just that. Props for valuing the community. #ultrawide #gaming #indiedev

Among the things updated with our new website is our trusty FOV calculator. A user asked if it can be made available for offline use, but from what we can see, saving the page locally would work - https://www.wsgf.org/fovcalc #widescreen #ultrawide #multimonitor #WSGF

The @isthereanydeal.com website has been updated to integrate with our database and display our ultrawide, multi-monitor, and 4K grades on every applicable game page. Check them out!

Our brand new website is now available at the original address. Read the story on its development at https://www.wsgf.org/news/wsgf-new-era #WSGF #webdesign

The latest patch for Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 has a section dedicated specifically to ultrawide fixes. #gaming #ultrawide #ClairObscur

Link rot is prevalent across the web, but our new website is going to include all content from 2006 and through the years, available at the original URLs since our past migration around 2012.

Generally positive news reported by our community member SP4RT4N3R: The Last of Us Part II Remastered and South of Midnight both have native 21:9 support. However, there are black bars at the cutscenes in South of Midnight. #ultrawide #gaming

Hello team @wsgf.org , please have a look. We added _a lot of_ ultra wide screen resolutions to 3DMark custom runs today. Greetings from team 3DMark from Finland! bsky.app/profile/chri...
