Ramen Shop Simulator ultrawide resolution fix is not really about the resolution setting. On an ultrawide monitor in fullscreen the bottom of the screen is cut off, and because the button that confirms a resolution change sits in the lower half of the screen, the resolution cannot be changed from the menu at all. The game becomes unplayable: you cannot check out at the konbini and most of the text is off screen.
Ramen Shop Simulator ultrawide resolution fix: what goes wrong
The failure has three parts, and they compound:
- The bottom of the screen is cut off in fullscreen on an ultrawide monitor.
- The confirm button for a resolution change sits in the lower half, so the button you need is on the part of the screen you cannot see.
- The result is a game you cannot finish. You cannot check out at the konbini, and most of the text is off screen, so buying stock and serving customers both become impossible.
The same thing happens at 5120x1440, where the settings buttons are pushed off the screen entirely rather than merely half hidden.
Once you are back in the menu with the buttons reachable, the rest of the options are in the graphics settings guide.
This is a layout problem in the menu, not a problem with your display or your graphics driver. Ultrawide support is on the list of things being looked into, and the main menu on 16:10 screens has already been fixed.
Why the menu cannot save you
It is worth being explicit about why the obvious fix does not work. Changing the resolution is exactly what you are trying to do, and the control that would let you do it is the thing that is off screen. Any attempt to fix this from inside the settings menu runs into the same wall.
The reported behaviour on a 16:9 screen at 1920x1080 is different, and it is worth distinguishing because it is a separate complaint: the user interface is laid out as 4:3 instead of 16:9, and the text becomes very small and thin. Nothing is hidden in that case — the layout is simply the wrong shape for the aspect ratio.
The workaround that works today
Until a fix ships, changing the resolution means leaving fullscreen:
- Leave fullscreen so the whole window fits inside the visible area of the screen.
- Change the resolution from the settings menu, where the button is reachable again.
- Watch the windowed mode limitation, which is the catch: windowed mode has its own problem of not being switchable once the window has been maximized.
That last point is the part that catches people out. The workaround gets you into the menu and out of it again, but a maximized window cannot be switched back without leaving the game again.
If you are not sure what is worth changing once you are back in the menu, the graphics settings guide covers the quality presets and what the menu does and does not offer.
