Overview

The Nixxes PC port supports ultrawide gameplay up to 32:9, but cutscenes are pillarboxed to a 21:9 area, so 32:9 users see bars in cinematics. Lyall's DeathStranding2Fix (v0.0.5) removes cutscene pillarboxing, fixes cropped pre-rendered cinematics, can constrain the HUD to 16:9 and adds an FOV slider.
