By Sym
Quick Flawless Widescreen's "DOOM (2016)" patch fix for anyone trying to play the game on 21/32:9 displays and getting the "Could not find AspectFix1 injection point, DOOM may have updated to a version that is no longer supported." error.

The fix
  • Open a new/empty tab in your browser

  • [... with Steam running...] Type "steam://open/console" in the URL field and press ENTER; Steam should open its console in the client

  • Input the command "download_depot 379720 379721 907965064786099828" in Steam's console and press ENTER; this will start the download of the last version of the game that supported Flawless Widescreen's patch

  • Wait for the download to be done (indicated by a message in the console saying that the download is complete, may take a minute)

  • Once the download is done, go to your Steam installation folder (e.g.: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\") and into ".\steamapps\content\depot_379721"; copy this folder's contents (CTRL+A and then CTRL+C), which should consist of 5 files for a total size of approximately 164 MB

  • Paste (CTRL+V) these files into your DOOM installation folder (e.g.: "D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\DOOM"), replacing the existing ones

If you did everything correctly, Flawless Widescreen's patch should now work properly, congrats, enjoy, cya.
