Video settings
Template:Video settings
The game has built-in support for 5:4, 4:3, 16:10 and 16:9 resolutions. For multi-monitor aspect ratios and resolutions, an .ini edit is required.
Set resolution manually[2]
|
- Go to
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\HOMEFRONT\GCGame\Config\GCEngine.ini
- Change the following lines to the desired resolution:
[SystemSettings]
ResX=2560
ResY=1080
ScreenAspectRatio=2.370370
Notes
- Screen change is Hor+. The HUD & lobby screens stretch.
- ScreenAspectRatio should be set to (Your Horizontal Resolution)/(Your Vertical Resolution). 2.370370 is appropriate for 2560x1080, while 3440x1440 should be 2.3888889. An incorrect value will result in a slightly horizontally stretched image.
- If you get a stretched weapon, open the graphics menu in-game, then exit it without making any changes. This should reset the weapon to proper proportions.
