Overview
Resident Evil 5 renders at ultrawide resolutions, but pre-rendered videos stretch and the UI scales incorrectly at high aspect ratios (WSGF 'Limited'). Lyall's RE5Fix corrects video playback and UI scaling and adds custom resolutions. Post-fix HUD/cutscene layout values are a best reading of the fix description.
