Widescreen resolution

Just Cause is only able to run in 4:3 mode without modification. To allow any custom resolution, use the Universal Resolution Changer.[1] All game elements work in wide-screen, though cut-scenes, the in-game PDA, and some other elements may appear stretched.

Multi-monitor

See Widescreen resolution for the changes needed. Interface elements are very stretched but 3D elements have the correct aspect ratio.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/6880/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (6880) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
