Game will not accept custoum resolution...after 1.201 update

[GrendelsDad]

Just as title says when I try to select custom resolution with fullscreen off it defaults too 640x480 or whatever the lowest setting is?  I  am looking for fix now, if anyone else has same problem let me know please, maybe we can figure it out.  FYI 5252x1800 is my resolution over 3 monitors.

I was using 3500 x 1080 without trouble. The thing is, every time you go the graphics settings screen it will reset it to a standard resolution. You have to edit startup.cfg again.

Thanx I will try that asap

Even with editing startup.cfg, I cannot get the  load screen to properly scale.  Have to reset it to 1080p to see any menu items on opening screen.  Bummer since the 4k resolution worked fine yesterday.

Problem persists after update to 1.201b.  Any resolution above 1920 x 1080 expands view to block menu items on load and other screens.

Hey lads I am running  DSR on a Benq 1080.  Have you ticked Fullscreen mode ?

Hello Jay, thanks for your post.  My issue is i need to have fullscreen unchecked to run in "windowed" mode so i can stretch resolution across 3 monitors with a PLP setup.  I have found a workaround for me.  Start the game with the launcher and make sure i tick my custom res. of 5252x1800@60hz.  As long as i donot change any graphics settings the resolution will hold.  if i go to graphics settings i have to start from launcher and select resolution again.  This works for now.  I also tried editing the startup and the setting works that way too but if i change any graphics settings game defaults to small res(640x480?) and i have to change again.  So to claify the issue i am having now is that i cannot change the resolution ingame to a custom resolution...i can only select a native resolution of my monitor?  This was not an issue before patch so not sure what changed. No big deal as the work around is fine for now.  Hope this helps if anyone else is having similar issues.
