Dbc is already set to wide and the blp is already shrink from a higher resolution to 1024x2048, also tried with other variation from source resolution shrink to 1024x1024 then 2048x2048.
My guess is that the ratio from the stretched blp is not uniform because of the source resolution loadscreen I made.
Png was made on 1675x2992, will try other format tonight before shrinking them to power of 2 size blp.

1920x1200 wide screen works with no bar, 2560x1440 wide screen bars appear, I'll have to change source template for that second resolution I suppose. Jeez gotta double the works <:11_PepeHands:1301382507736076411>

Well template won't change anything, base game resolution for the loading screen is 4:3, wide screen seems to be just a lazy x1,2 to the length to get the 16:10 ratio.
If anyone knows a way to support both 16:9 and 16:10 or have adaptative wide screen let me know please.
For now I'll stick to the 16:10 ratio, unfortunately for 16:9 rendering is a bit off.

Nothing can be done in that regard as it is an old client, it has its limitations, but if what you want is to remove the black lines, what you would have to do is modify the client as Wow Ascension did.

Second option is to set game in 16:10 resolution and enable windowed mode, maximized, disable resize. But it's just a way to mitigate that issue and ignoring it for now <:11_PepeHands:1301382507736076411>

Yes, it would be for now... the program I told you about is an improvement for the visual interface, it increases the resolutions to almost 3840x2160, but anyway... if you need help, I'm here I'm finishing this
