How to enable Ultrawide Cutscenes in Assassin’s Creed Mirage

Welcome to our step-by-step guide on enabling ultrawide cutscenes in Assassin's Creed Mirage! By following these simple instructions, you'll be able to fully enjoy the game on your ultrawide monitor. Ultrawide monitors have become increasingly popular among gamers for their immersive and cinematic experience. Unfortunately, not all games natively support ultrawide resolutions, but with a little tweaking, you can unlock the full potential of your monitor. In this guide, we will walk you through the process of modifying the game's binary file to enable ultrawide cutscenes. Let's dive right in!

To begin, you'll need to download and install HxD, a popular hex editor that allows binary file modification. HxD is a lightweight and user-friendly tool that is widely used in the gaming community. You can easily find this tool by doing a quick search online and downloading it from a trusted source. Once downloaded, run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install HxD on your computer.

After installing HxD, launch the application by double-clicking on the desktop shortcut or searching for it in the Start menu. Alternatively, you can press Control + O on your keyboard to open the program's dialogue box.

In the HxD dialogue box, you will need to browse for and select the game's executable file. The executable file is the main file that runs the game. If you're using Ubisoft+, look for either "ACMirage.exe" or "ACMirage_plus.exe" depending on your setup. Once you have located the correct file, click on it to select it and then click the "Open" button.

With the game's executable file loaded in HxD, you will now need to open the Replace feature to start modifying the file. To do this, press Control + R on your keyboard. This will open the Replace feature within HxD.

In the Replace feature, you will see a search box where you need to enter the hex values "39 8E E3 3F". These values represent the resolution of the cutscenes in the game. To enable ultrawide cutscenes, you will need to replace these values with the resolution of your ultrawide monitor. It's important to input the correct values for your specific monitor model. You can find the resolution of your monitor in its specifications or by searching online. Once you have the correct values, enter them in the search box.

To apply the changes throughout the binary file, you will need to activate the Search Direction option "All". This ensures that all instances of the hex values are modified. Next, click on the "Change everything" button to modify all instances of those hex values within the file.

After making the necessary modifications, it's time to save the modified file. To do this, go to the "File" menu in HxD and select "Save" or simply press Control + S on your keyboard. Choose a location to save the modified file and give it a name that you will remember. It's important to keep a backup of the original file in case you encounter any issues or want to revert the changes in the future.

Now that you have successfully modified the game's binary file, it's time to launch Assassin's Creed Mirage and adjust the in-game settings to match your ultrawide monitor's specifications. Navigate to the settings menu in the game and locate the resolution and aspect ratio settings. Change these settings to match the resolution and aspect ratio of your ultrawide monitor. By doing this, you will ensure that the game is displaying properly on your monitor.

If you encounter any errors or issues after modifying the game's binary file, don't worry. There are a few troubleshooting steps you can take to resolve them. First, try verifying and repairing the game files through Ubisoft Connect. This will ensure that any corrupted or missing files are replaced. Additionally, experiment with different display modes available in the in-game display settings to ensure optimal performance. Some games may have specific display options for ultrawide monitors, so be sure to explore these options to find the best fit for your setup.
