Cry Of Fear: Widescreen Fix

The gun models will still be enormous at high resolutions. To fix this, add this second command right after the FOV one (separate by a space):

In the same launcher menu, manually select your monitor's native resolution (e.g., 1920x1080, 2560x1440, 3840x2160). Apply and close the launcher.

Launch the game. It should now look correct. The above method works for 99% of 16:9 monitors, but ultrawide (21:9, 32:9) users will still have stretched UI elements. Here’s how to fix that using a community patch.

Right-click Cry of Fear in your Steam library → Properties → Launch Options . Paste the following command: cry of fear widescreen fix

Your final launch options should look like this: +fov 90 +viewmodel_fov 70
