Ultrawide Monitor

Anyone have an ultrawide Monitor? Do you know how to fix the CAS camera? Whenever I'm in 3 to change the hair and facial features,the UI blocks the entire face. I had it fixed at one point, but it got messed up recently.
  • Hi all,

    This was resolved in today's patch:

    • The CAS UI does not scale/arrange well on displays with extreme aspect ratios (e.g. ultra-wide displays)


    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new post so we can continue to investigate. Thanks!

    Have you tried this one over at MTS?

  • I use that one linked above. It isn't perfect for sure, but it helps. I don't have ultra wide though, so that may make a difference. I know I saw exactly what you are looking for, it was a mod to actually move the ui over to the right, there were 2 options, one for wide and one for ultra wide. For the life of me I can't remember where the heck I saw it. :s I thought I had the page bookmarked because I wanted to try it, but I don't. That makes me sad, I have been trying to find it again for a while now. :'(
  • Hmm...is that what I had? Ha! I have tried just about every camera file and none of them work. Maybe I need that mod and that's how it worked before. I seem to remember something like that, but heck...it's like a set it and forget it type of thing.

  • Oooooh I wonder if that is the one I saw?? It looks like the box is moved... I am gonna try this one myself! Thanks!

    Edit: That is the one I saw!! No wonder I couldn't find it again, the site is gone!! Thank you very much @Shae You are awesome! Here have a cookie! :cookie:

    @Cinebar this is something you want to check out. This is the mod I was telling you about before. (Yes it is a mod and goes in downloads) FYI 300 moves it just to the right of the sim, 500 moves it further over. I like 500 myself. :blush:

    This wasn't exactly what I had before, but it definitely did the trick! Thanks a billion!
