None of the options affect gamepad use

-*AMD users can use a tool called [http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/322663-15-radeon-custom-resolution-manager Radeon Custom Resolution Manager] and add the desired custom resolution under the "other" aspect ratio category. It is recommended that you save your work and quit other open applications before using RCRM.
-*Nvidia users can specify a custom resolution through the nvidia control panel.
-{{++}} This way of altering the field of view will allow the player to regain some sense of peripheral vision, without altering the ratio between character height and image height. This preserves to some extent the original intention underlying the composition of the frame.
-{{--}} The image will effectively be cropped. Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen.
