ARK: Survival Ascended – Ultrawide 32:9 Field of View Fix (Less Zoomed-In)

October 28, 2023 Volodymyr Azimoff 0

A quick fix for ultrawide monitor users. By default, the game is too zoomed-in at wide aspect ratios. This simple tweak will fix it!

The Fix

Naviage to this folder on your computer.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\ARK Survival Ascended\ShooterGame\Saved\Config\Windows\

If you have installed ARK in a different location, please adjust the file path according to where you installed it:

Open Engine.ini in your favorite text editor app. I recommend Notepad++ which you can download for free.

Add this at the bottom:

[/script/engine.localplayer]
AspectRatioAxisConstraint=AspectRatio_MaintainYFOV

Save the file and exit! Load up the game!

Please Note: If you have adjusted your FoV in-game, it may be too wide now. Try something like 50 and see how it looks. Your weapon should take up a lot less space on the screen now, and the game should look great!
