From d817125cfec1a408d9e0c0dd034c2165b8bec467 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Niels Saurer Date: Sun, 25 May 2025 00:50:17 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Update FAQ - stretched instances I ran into this in Elden Ring with [this handler](https://hub.splitscreen.me/handler/CgTFu6jc83pMKPZBy) and the most recent Nucleus Co-op app. For documentation/searchability purposes: I have three monitors, 1440x2560, 2560x1440 (usually primary) and 3840x2160. Despite following all troubleshooting steps I was able to find, having two instances in left/right splitscreen on the 4k monitor resulted in stretched and extremely low-res instances. Setting the 4k monitor to primary before launching the instances fixed both issues. --- docs/FAQ.md | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/docs/FAQ.md b/docs/FAQ.md index 7d0a50d..c889cbb 100644 --- a/docs/FAQ.md +++ b/docs/FAQ.md @@ -219,7 +219,7 @@ Some handlers save to the Nucleus Co-op environment folder located in `C:\Users\ ### 23.- Why is Nucleus Co-op resizing the game instances incorrectly/the instances look stretched? -Try setting your monitor scale to 100% in your monitor/TV resolution settings.

Note that not all games support custom or ultra widescreen resolutions.

If the instances are all running on a single monitor, try setting that one as the primary monitor in the Windows display settings. ### 24.- Why is Nucleus Co-op showing an error message that it can not find a file when launching a handler?
