LCUltrawide

Lethal Company is locked to 16:9 aspect ratio by default and will add black bars on the sides of ultrawide monitors.
This mod makes some changes to the games rendering and UI to enable support for any custom resolution and aspect ratio.

This mod has been adopted by the Lethal Company Modding community repo and may be maintained by any willing community member with a github account.

Features

• Automatically detects monitor aspect ratio and scales the game to fill the entire screen (works even in window mode!)
• Pixelation Resolution sliders are provided as replacements for the Pixelation Resolution setting.
• Allows changing of HUD scale and aspect ratio
• Fixes the inventory slots being slightly misaligned on some monitors
• Fixes the UI being slightly too large on wider monitors
• More robust code for the Scanner HUD to ensure correct position of markers

Installation

1. Make sure you have BepInEx installed for the game
2. Download the latest version of the mod from Thunderstore or GitHub releases
3. Navigate to the games install folder (you can right click the game in your Steam library, select "Manage" and then "Browse Local Files" to easily find it)
4. Copy the BepInEx folder from the downloaded .zip into your game folder making sure the contents end up in the already existing folders

Usage

Ultrawide Resolution

By default the mod will take the original game resolution and automatically scale it to fit your monitor.

Optional Configurations

You can customize this mod's settings in it's config file, BepInEx/config/LCUltrawide.cfg

• Pixleation Resolution: This mod replaces the base-game Pixelation Resolution in-game setting with it's own modded settings.
  • The base-game setting (dropdown) is replaced with two new sliders.
  • The modded settings allow you to completely remove all pixelation and also scale with your monitor resolution.
  • All the way to the left is 0 pixelation, all the way to the right is maximum pixelation.
  • Game Pixelation Slider: Changes the player camera's pixelation amount when not in the menus.
  • Terminal Pixelation Slider: Changes the player camera's pixelation amount when interacting with the terminal.
  • The settings are set & saved using the game's save system and are persistent between modded profiles so long as the mod is installed.
  • Furthermore, these modded settings do not contaminate the existing vanilla pixel resolution setting value in your game settings.
    • Disabling/Enabling the mod will not cause any issues.
  • The default values for these settings are meant to match the vanilla values for a 1080p monitor.
• [UI] Scale: Use this configuration item to modify the scale of UI elements on the screen.
• [UI] Aspect Ratio: Use this configuration item to set the aspect ratio for the in-game HUD.
  • A higher number makes the HUD wider.
  • (0 = auto, 1.33 = 4:3, 1.77 = 16:9, 2.33 = 21:9, 3.55 = 32:9)

Compatibility

Supports configuration in-game via Lethal Config when it is present.

LCUltrawide Changelog

v1.4.0

• Removed Resolution Modifier config options.
  • Setting these to values larger than 1 did nothing but hamper performance. Any perceived upscaling was in fact placebo.
• Replaced vanilla in-game pixelation setting with new slider settings for both game pixelation and terminal screen pixelation.
  • These sliders essentially replace the resolution modifier configs but correctly scale only up to 1.
  • Using our modded settings, pixelation in-game is now scaled based on your monitor resolution.
  • The default values for these settings are meant to match vanilla from a 1080p monitor.
    • If you have a higher or lower resolution monitor these defaults will likely look different than what you see in vanilla.
  • The settings are saved using the game's save system and are persistent between modded profiles so long as the mod is installed.
  • Furthermore, these modded settings do not contaminate the existing vanilla pixel resolution setting value in your game settings. Disabling/Enabling the mod will not cause you any issues.
• The above changes resulted in removing 1 patch and adding 6 to support our modded in-game settings.
