Cobalt Core Windowed

Allows a resizable window in Cobalt Core.

Installation

  1. Download XInput1_4.dll and place it into your Cobalt Core installation directory.
    • C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Cobalt Core is the default.
    • It must be placed in the Cobalt Core main directory. It won't be recognized in a subfolder.
  2. Launch Cobalt Core.
  3. Set the in-game setting to fullscreen (if it's not already).

Usage

  • Press the tilde key to toggle between crop-to-fit and letterboxing display modes.
    • It's located above Tab (`~ on a standard US keyboard).

Additional Info.

A log file Windowed-Hook.log and config file Windowed-Hook.ini will be generated on first run.

All window positional information is saved and restored between relaunches of the game app.

How To Uninstall

Remove or rename XInput1_4.dll.

Information

The code uses a minimalist hook-injection pattern to add functionality to the game.

It adds a workaround to display the window correctly and be resizable without modifying the base game.

Notes

There's a rendering cutoff if the window is larger than the fullscreen resolution.
