UltraWide 2

Play Core Keeper at up to 32:9 resolution

Adds support for a variety of screen aspect ratios up to a maximum of 32:9, with original 21:9 and 16:10 support retained.

Configuration

On first run the mod creates a config file at: %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Pugstorm\Core Keeper\UltraWide2_config.json

You can paste that path into File Explorer's address bar to jump there.

<table> <thead> <tr> <th>Setting</th> <th>Values</th> <th>Default</th> <th>Notes</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>mode</td> <td>"safe" or "full"</td> <td>"safe"</td> <td>safe keeps a streaming margin so terrain at screen edges pops/skews less. full pushes to the absolute 32:9 ceiling for maximum horizontal real estate, at the cost of more pronounced edge artifacts during movement.</td> </tr> <tr> <td>safeMarginTiles</td> <td>0 – 24</td> <td>4</td> <td>Only active in safe mode. Higher values give cleaner edges but more letterboxing on very wide displays. The engine streams a 64-tile-wide window around the player, so the world view ends up 64 - 2 × safeMarginTiles tiles wide.</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>

Edit the file and restart the game for changes to take effect. If the file contains invalid JSON the mod will log a warning and fall back to defaults.

Note: Even at higher safe-margin values, some edge shimmer can remain during fast movement. This is inherent to how the game streams terrain at runtime and cannot be fully eliminated by the mod.

Installation

To install the mod you can either subscribe to it on mod.io or download and install it manually.

Mod.io installation

Subscribe either through the website or the in-game [mods] tab.

This mod requires Elevated Permissions to work — you will be prompted with that information after restarting the game (mod id: 6040598).

If you subscribe on the mod.io website, you still need to open the [mods] tab in game for it to download and install.

Updating

Go into the game's [mods] tab and click [collection] at the top of the screen. The [UltraWide 2] mod should begin updating automatically. Restart the game once it finishes.

Manual installation

Download the file from the mod.io website, unpack it as a folder into: CoreKeeper_Data\StreamingAssets\Mods

inside your Core Keeper installation directory.
