📋 About This Mod
This mod removes the letter box from the game's cutscenes and cinematic camera. This is the black bars you see during cutscenes, as well as the side bars.
For widescreen users, this also removes pillarboxing (the side bars) from the mentioned areas above as well as the pause menu, shop menus, and photo mode.
Unlike the other mods, this mod does not require you to run an external app everytime you launch the game, treak values for different screens, or require you to press a key to un-softlock.
Removes letterboxing from cutscenes and cinematic cameras, plus pillarboxing for widescreen users in pause, shop, and photo mode. A quality-of-life UI mod with 216 endorsements, last updated December 2024.

✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 216 endorsements and nearly 10k downloads.

⚠️ Cons
