c9twoshot commented 3 years ago

i installed this per the instructions but after trying to open it via the new launcher it runs for half a second and closes and it never opens the launcher SysSetup_log.log install_log.log

these are the only logs i have available

Okay, everything looks okay in those log files. Could you right click on the launcher shortcut, select "Edit" and paste the contents of the launcher here?

That all looks correct. Can you confirm that RiotClientServices.exe is in C:\Riot Games\Riot Client\ ?

c9twoshot commented 3 years ago

yes i can confirm that it is

crocokyle commented 3 years ago

That's odd, okay could you try to right-click on your original Valorant shortcut, select properties, and paste the Target: value here? It should match up with the last line from your launcher:

"C:\Riot Games\Riot Client\RiotClientServices.exe" --launch-product=valorant --launch-patchline=live
c9twoshot commented 3 years ago 
"C:\Riot Games\Riot Client\RiotClientServices.exe" --launch-product=valorant --launch-patchline=live

yea it appears that it does

Okay, something is going wrong with the launcher bat file execution I guess. Just as a test lets try to edit your launcher again and overwrite it with this code:

echo Patching Valorant screen resolution...
copy C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\VALORANT\Saved\Config\26fd0418-ff34-537c-b027-6400fb9ec9d2\Windows\GameUserSettingsSrc.ini C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\VALORANT\Saved\Config\26fd0418-ff34-537c-b027-6400fb9ec9d2\Windows\GameUserSettings.ini
echo Killing your Windows taskbar until game has closed...
echo Launching Valorant in Ultrawide
"C:\Riot Games\Riot Client\RiotClientServices.exe" --launch-product=valorant --launch-patchline=live
pause

This should give us a better output and stop it from closing before it gives you an error.

Ok so it opened the game and I was able to play in ultrawide on Windowed mode but Fullscreen would default to 1080p this is what the CMD prompt says.

Okay, it looks like adding logging to the launcher might have caused problems. I'm going to see if I can fix that.

As far as the windowed mode goes, that is the workaround at the moment. It should appear as if it's in fullscreen (no borders or gaps), but it is going to render your desktop in parallel which will slightly reduce performance. It is a lightweight game so it shouldn't be too bad, but I should probably add a disclaimer for this in the readme. Unfortunately, that is the only method I could come up with without modified the binaries and tripping Vanguard.

Launcher logging should be fixed now in the releases.
