Daylight

Warning: this game is cursed. Developed by now-defunct Zombie Studios, the technically clunky first-person adventure struggles to turn its repetitiveness and randomly-assembled corridors into an engrossing experience. The first title built with Unreal Engine 4 to be released, Daylight is also the ominous sign that a new era of UE-powered Tunnel Vision might be upon us...

Solutions & Issues

Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues

Native Vert+ support.

Ultra/Super-Wide (21:9/32:9) Specific Solution & Issues

Native Vert- support. Use the .ini edit detailed below for Hor+ gameplay.

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution & Issues

An .ini edit is required to bind a fixed FOV to a key.
In Steam's game properties, use Browse local files... to open Steam\steamapps\common\Daylight\Engine\Config\BaseInput.ini

Add the following line under General bindings:
+ExecBindings=(Key=SpaceBar,Command="FOV 140",Control=False,Shift=False,Alt=False)Save changes, run the game, then hit Space to apply the fixed FOV.

Feel free to replace SpaceBar with any other input from this list.
140 is just an example, use the FOV Calculator to determine the right value for your resolution. Default HFOV is 75 for 16:9.

Outstanding blemish: FMVs are Vert-.
