Players in your game:
Single player

Specifications:
RTX2080ti non-overclocked, max quality settings, 2560x1080
i7 7700k @5 GHz, 3600 MHz RAM

EDIT: NVidia driver is up-to-date, ReShade is completely removed, PC freshly rebooted.

WEIRD, there is another part of that strange shadow, another rectangular shape, slightly smaller/more upwards on the screen. It sometimes cuts in from the left into the “normal” part of the screen right of the border visible in the above image. This depends on the direction I am facing on the map! :open_mouth:

Weird indeed. Have you tried with a lesser resolution, see if the issue remains? Or messed around with the settings, shadows etc?

Not so far. Will see what I can do.

EDIT: Still present on 1920x1080 scaled or with proper aspect ratio and Low graphics preset.

Coming from the console version, that looks really wide FoV to me. Does reducing it make any difference to the effect?

See above. Does not affect it.

I’ve messed around with my settings, trying to reproduce the issue but no luck. Has it always done this, or did it start recently? :thinking:

Edit: Y’sure it’s not FOV related? Like if you’ve forced the FOV beyond the ingame settings?

GZ has no FOV slider, and I have not messed with FOV in any ini file so far. Might still be the ultra wide display though. GZ might read that from the OS whether it be used or not.

:wink:

But, I getcha. Might be the display, I’ve heard some newer games have trouble with them. But if you’re still unsure I could poke a dev about it?

The more you know. :slight_smile:

I did not mess with it, was on 80. Turned it down to 50, the shadow had a different form. Was something small and irregular in the bottom center over my gun.
