Summary0002656: Crash on vid_setmode to monitor's native resolution
DescriptionI have an ultrawide monitor that crashes when calling vid_setmode to the native resolution. vid_listmodes returns the mode.

I am using the latest non-beta Nvidia drivers on windows 10 with a 980GTX Ti.
Steps To Reproduce1. Launch zandronum, bring up console.
2. type vid_setmode 3440 1440
3. Observe crash
Additional InformationI have submitted a 21:9 ultrawide code patch to ZDoom which may be useful in supporting ultra wide screen aspect ratios. It is awaiting approval on their forum as of this report:

Do you mind checking if this crashes in GZDoom r900 andGZDoom 1.8.6, too?

Interestingly, it crashes in GZDoom r900, but the mode succeds in GZDoom 1.8.6.

In GZDoom 1.8.6, the aspect ratio is wildly incorrect and no vid_aspect cvar setting helps much. The attached patch in the zdoom forum fixes that issue.

Ok, then what about zandronum 3.0 beta? Latest is here.

That works, though it falls back to software. I'm not sure how to use vid_setmode to force hardware?

At any rate, the aspect ratio is... very bad. The attached screenshot shows what you get.

I attached a code patch that adds explicit support for 21:9 monitors, including in the UI. It was originally written for the most recent ZDoom (origin/master in their repo as of yesterday).

ZDoom added your patches in these commits:
[1]
[2]
[3]
[4]
[5]
[6]

with some adjustments from randi:
[7]
[8]
[9]

So, you have to wait for Torr to pull these changes.

[edit] not to forget graf's adjustment for gzdoom: [here]
