Resolution and aspect visualizer

Compare valid resolution and aspect-ratio pairs, then preview stretched scaling, black bars, pixel load, and horizontal-view tradeoffs.

16:9 monitor frameStretched
1280x9604:3

Stretched mode fills a 16:9 panel by widening the lower-aspect image; player models look wider, but the game does not reveal extra horizontal view. Black bars preserves the original shape and leaves unused space at the sides.

FAQ

Resolution: common questions

Does 4:3 stretched make enemy hitboxes larger?

No. Stretching makes the rendered image wider on your display. The game's hitboxes remain the same. A narrower aspect ratio also shows less horizontal field of view.

Does fewer pixels guarantee more FPS?

No. Reducing pixel load can help when the GPU is the limiting factor. A CPU-bound system may gain little. Use the same map and repeatable benchmark to measure the difference.
