Tool to easily get true stretched res in Valorant

BetterValorant

Stretched resolution in VALORANT

This is a forked version that you can now have keybind to on/off the true stretched res.

I keep this as forked version for now as the change is just a preference level imho.

Original repository -> l1m0n3/BetterValorant

Premise

According to my experience, this stretch method only be enabled in-match, meaning when u jump outta match and return to menu, the stretch get automatically canceled. So u likely have to re-enable everytime the new game(match) starts. It's such a drag so I made it easy to on and off the feature. No clue what makes this happens but menu window tries to resist the true stretch ends up letterboxing.

How to use

1. Valorant in-game setting set your "Display Mode" to "Windowed"
2. Valorant in-game setting, set your "Aspect Ratio Method" to "Fill"
3. Launch BetterValorant.exe
4. (initial setting prompt will show up at first launch)
5. press \ key to enable/disable true stretch and = key to quit the software.

So basically, everytime u hop into match, u press \ to get true stretched res, and press \ once u go back menu.

my recommend resolution is 1280 x 960.

FAQ

Q: How can I use a different resolution? It automatically applies previous resolution setting.

A: Delete the config file at %userprofile%/Documents/BetterValorant/config.txt or you can edit the file directly.

Q: My Anti-Virus blocks BetterValorant.exe! This is a virus!

A: No, it's just a false-positive. But if you got the exe from somewhere else but here, it might be containing a virus. You can compile the code by yourself so you won't get any viruses.
