Widescreen resolution

Widescreen resolution and 60 FPS fix[2]
  1. Download Kung Fu Panda 60 FPS & Widescreen Fix by killer-m.
  2. Extract Kung Fu Panda fix.zip files to the installation folder.
  3. Follow the instructions listed in that page and edit Settings.ini to set the desired resolution, FPS limit, etc.

Notes

Disabling the game's frame limiter improves performance at higher frame-rates and can be limited by using the game's Vsync option or by using an external frame limiter.
This fix also allows you to increase the game's shadow and lighting quality to a maximum resolution value of 8192. You can also disable the game's color correction to get more natural-looking colors.
If you want to set the video quality to high, change VideoQuality to 2 in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Activision\Kung Fu Panda\Settings.
The ending and credits play faster than normal, if the framerate is too high.
Jump height is tied to framerate, and it may be too low to clear some platforming parts at extremely high framerates.
