    Any way to get rid of lettrbox effect/Black Bars at 16:10?

    Simple question, I love the game but hate the black bars at top and bottom. I am playing at 16:10, 1920x1200. Changing aspect ratio to 16:9 and 1920x1080 does make the game run at true full screen (without black bars) but that is irrelevant to me as my monitor is 1200p!

    Any fix? Anything? I want true full screen, not some stretched images.

    Thanks in advance.

    I have got the exact same problem. I now played it at 16:9 with 1920x1080, but it's hard to get used to the blur...

    Well just after posting this I found something on Steam community. Some user called Darder posted some package, which seems to solve the issue. At first I thought that it was just stretching the image but nah more content is added in place of those damn black bars, not bad.

    This is the link to that page, http://steamcommunity.com/app/298110...5374612147893/

    I am new here, so I don't know if posting links under rules or not, if not do whatever necessary.

    In the file GamerProfile.xml you have a line WidescreenLetterbox (0 or 1 turns it off an on), maby this will fix it.
