The idea

Please add native 48:9 aspect ratio support for three 16:9 monitors side by side, including:

5760×1080 (three 1080p monitors)
7680×1440 (three 1440p monitors)

The goal is a genuinely wider horizontal view, preserving correct proportions rather than stretching or cropping a 32:9 image. Keeping the HUD and cutscenes centred within the middle monitor would be ideal.

This would let triple-monitor users play across all three screens at their native combined resolution.

Anything else

I tested Hookshot on Linux using Gamescope with a 7680×1440 virtual display, but the game did not expand to a true 48:9 view.

The current source appears to clamp the ultrawide camera ratio to 32:9 in host/hos_main.c and reject custom output resolutions wider than 32:9 in host/nn_applet.c.

This request is specifically for a wider aspect ratio, distinct from #1686, which requests a higher-resolution 32:9 output.

Thanks! 48:9 for triple-monitor setups (5760x1080, 7680x1440) is now listed in the feature requests collection #1007 (32:9 came in v2.0.12). Closing in favour of the tracker.
