How to play in widescreen/ultra widescreen and 60 fps (and beyond)

Overview

How to play in widescreen/ultra widescreen and 60 fps (and beyond) using Nuclear Throne Together mod.

First things first

How to Install

• Open your Nuclear Throne steam folder. One way to do it is by right clicking the game on steam, select manage, then browse local files. (On older steam client: right click the game on steam, select properties, go to local files tab and click browse local files.)
• Extract the Nuclear Throne Together mod to that folder. Choose replace the files in the destination if windows ask for it.
• Run “NTT-Assemble” executable.
• Next, create a text file named startup on the nuclear throne steam folder.
  

• Open it and paste the following code on the file, then save.
  – For 16:9 and 60 fps
  /gml game_set_size(426, 240) /gml q=60 room_speed=q current_time_scale=30/q

  – For 21:9 and 60 fps

  /gml game_set_size(560, 240) /gml q=60 room_speed=q current_time_scale=30/q

  
  – For 16:9 and 144 fps

  /gml game_set_size(426, 240) /gml q=144 room_speed=q current_time_scale=30/q

  – For 21:9 and 144 fps

  /gml game_set_size(560, 240) /gml q=144 room_speed=q current_time_scale=30/q

  If you want the game to run at any other frame rate, you can do so by changing q=60 to your preferred frame rate. So q=120 for 120 fps, q=100 for 100 fps and so on.

• Play the game by running NuclearThroneTogether.exe (You should probably create a desktop shortcut for it so you can start the game easier next time)

Closing

One important thing to note is the fps command will make the system requirements for Nuclear Throne even higher, especially on the CPU side. So if you don’t need the 60 fps you can remove the line:

From your startup.txt and just use the command for the widescreen/ultra widescreen.

Hope this guide is useful for you guys. Peace.

Edit: Added 144 fps option. Thx to saxe for the comment and rowan_u for confirming it works.

Edit 2: Regarding multiplayer, YellowAfterLife said:

startup.txt does not load automatically in multiplayer since side-loading is disabled on game start.
The process is as following:
– Start multiplayer, get to campfire screen
– Each player does `/sideload` to enable loading mods/external content
– Any of players does the commands or `/load startup` to load their startup.txt
