Graphics feature State WSGF Notes
Widescreen resolution
Run moha_setup.exe again to configure the resolution. Game was designed for 4:3 aspect ratio; 16:10/16:9 resolutions are Vert-. At resolutions higher than 720p, the black background of the meeting room does not cover correctly, allowing to see NPCs in T-pose.[6]
Multi-monitor
Run moha_setup.exe again to configure your resolution.
Ultra-widescreen
Image is Vert-. FOV can be increased to compensate but this requires an external mod. See Field of view (FOV).
4K Ultra HD
Some scaling issues with HUD and loading screens, nothing that makes the game unplayable. Key binding screen may not function correctly at 4K due to improper scaling.

LateralAmplitude=0 // Multiplier for how much the scope "drifts" horizontally.
VerticalFrequency=0 // How quickly the scope drift goes through it's pattern
