Ultrawide UI Overhaul (21x9 and 32x9)

DESCRIPTION

Ultrawide UI Overhaul adapts Cyberpunk 2077’s user interface for 21:9 and 32:9 displays. Menu backgrounds and selected UI layouts use the full physical screen instead of remaining confined to the central 16:9 area. The mod also coordinates the game’s black side pillars so loading screens remain clean.

Works well with Ultrawide Scanner HUD.

FEATURES

- 21:9 and 32:9 layout support for the main menu, pause menu and in-game menus.

- Full-width world map.

- Support for inventory, backpack, revised backpack, cyberware, character, journal, settings, mod settings, native settings UI, crafting, stats, gallery, shards, save/load screens and related menus.

- Support for Stealthrunner menu.

- Black pillars are restored during startup and loading, then removed at the appropriate menu/world states.

- Compatible with Cleaner Main Menu and Pause Menu and Preem Menu.

REQUIREMENTS

- RED4ext.

- Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET).

- A 21:9 or 32:9 display. Other aspect ratios are not supported by this release.

INSTALLATION

1. Open Ultrawide-UI-Overhaul-v1. 2. 0.zip.

2. Copy the bin and red4ext folders.

3. Paste them into your Cyberpunk 2077 installation directory.

4. Allow Windows to merge the folders.

5. Launch or restart the game.

The installed files should be located at:

Cyberpunk 2077\

├── bin\x64\plugins\cyber_engine_tweaks\mods\

│  ├── UltrawideUIOverhaul\init.lua

│  └── BlackPillarsCoordinator\init.lua

└── red4ext\plugins\BlackPillarsRemover\

└── BlackPillarsRemover.dllOr install with your favorite mod manager.

UNINSTALLATION

Delete these three folders:

bin\x64\plugins\cyber_engine_tweaks\mods\UltrawideUIOverhaul

bin\x64\plugins\cyber_engine_tweaks\mods\BlackPillarsCoordinator

red4ext\plugins\BlackPillarsRemoverOr uninstall with your favorite mod manager.

COMPATIBILITY AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Most of the UI changes are applied dynamically at runtime through Cyber Engine Tweaks rather than replacing the game’s original UI archives. This greatly reduces the risk of conflicts with other interface mods.

Mods that completely rebuild the same menu widget hierarchy may still require a compatibility update.

The included RED4ext plugin is version-specific and currently supports Cyberpunk 2077 2. 31.

If the game has been updated, disable the native DLL until a compatible build is available.

WHAT'S UP NEXT ?

Future updates may bring support for 32:9 displays.

I’m also considering a more ambitious 2. 0 release that would make better use of the additional screen space by expanding content-heavy menus such as the Backpack, Crafting, Shards and Journal interfaces.
