Lost in Random ultrawide and wider workaround
🕑 Added 2023-02-09 16:51:27 +0000 UTCAccording to PCGW, this game supports ultrawide and multi-monitor resolutions without limitations. In practice, like a few other Unity games, it merely defaults to your current desktop resolution but permanently locks to its supported resolutions if you touch the resolutions slider in the options.
I downloaded the game and documented a workaround in response to an inquiry on Discord, but I think it wouldn't hurt to make it into a proper guide that can be preserved.
So if you do happen to have touched the resolution slider, do the following:
- Exit the game.
- Open regedit via Windows Search and type \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Zoink Games\Lost In Random in the address bar.
- Right-click the Width and Height related values and Delete. Alternatively, though at the risk of losing some game progress data, on the navbar just delete the whole Lost in Random folder.
- In the file explorer, go to %USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Zoink Games\Lost In Random\ and open GameSettings.sav in an app like Notepad.
- Modify the resolutionHeight and resolutionWidht values to match your preference.
That's it, although touching the resolution settings in the game will keep resetting the resolution.
It's worth noting that the game poorly scales its UI, so some (seemingly non-crucial) elements may be partially out of view or always visible at 32:9, as with my patcher for Tunic.
