Here's an interesting problem. Forza Horizon 5 won't go to 21:9 aspect ratio even though the game detects 5760X1080. (lemmy.world)

I recently booted the game up and forgot about the problem. Here's the thing. The game was able to do so on my old 2TB super cheap NVME drive. But I upgraded to a WD Black 4TB drive and that when the problems started.

I'm sure a major portion of the problem is I have a Intel Arc A770 card. runs the game smoothly at 60fps locked on extreme settings (as long as ray tracing it turned completely off.) But Intels monitor combining software is HORRIBLE!

I have tried the hack of using SRWE to get around it, but even doing that the screen still defaults to 1920X1080.

was just wondering if anyone had any other suggestions for getting my triple monitor setup working again?

there's a workaround (which didn't work for me) that does that.

I will link it here: https://steamah.com/forza-horizon-5-triple-monitor-setup-guide/

OP did say he tried to use SRWE but, nevertheless, looks like forcing windowed mode was the correct answer!
