This tool utilizes SUWSF to manage the patching of the game with the new resolution, and it also uses the Ultimate ASI Loader to load these changes. The primary patches are specified in the SUWSF.ini file.

I haven’t come across any issues with this tool myself, but my testing has been limited to 16:9 resolutions. It would be interesting to see how it performs with other aspect ratios.

Special thanks to the user on /v/ who demonstrated that resolution editing was possible. It’s unfortunate that such a fundamental feature had to be added through modding.

Zusätzlich, there’s another plugin in development on GitHub that appears to offer similar features to this tool. It’s worth keeping an eye on it for potential user interface (Benutzeroberfläche) improvements in the future.
