Widescreen Grade: C
Multi-monitor Grade: C

Read Full Detailed Report - Tribes: Ascend

Tribes: Ascend is a free-to-play multiplayer-only first-person shooter part of the Tribes franchise. It is developed by Hi-Rez Studios. The game features a class-based loadout system. Each loadout specifies what type of armor the player has, along with what weapons and items they carry. Loadouts only supports three weapons at a time; two in-hand weapons and one melee object, along with either grenades or mines and a pack.

There are three possible sizes of armor to choose: light, medium and heavy. Players can select which loadout to use when either when first joining a game, respawning or at an inventory station. Loadouts may be acquired either through an upfront payment, or through playing the game and earning experience, which can be used to purchase classes, weapons and upgrades. Paid-for loadouts are available to the user instantly, while those who choose to unlock them through playing will have a much longer wait. Upgrades to armor and weapons can only be purchased by experience points.

When I get around to fixing it I will gladly send them the source code for the plugin if they want.

That would do it, I was largely trying to clear it with them as to whether or not they would ban people for using such a fix, their answer is effectively that depends on the fix itself.

It looks like there hasn't been any progress on a fix for this from Hi Rez. I have started a thread on their forum about it and if we can get some traffic to it they might listen. Here's the link.

Read the detailed report itself, it will tell you how to force the res to 1680x1050, also, they have said they will fix Triple Monitor setups, but its low priority fix so it'll be some time before they get around to it.

@Any of our developers, I would appreciate it if someone could do a quick FoV hack *if it is quick that is* don't worry about the menus and HUD, I need to make special video I and would love to have tribes in the background.

I did this already, it's just a shame we have to go in and edit config files in order to play a game at the "correct" resolution.


EDIT: Also made a thread in the official forums.

Prior to the most recent patch the only thing that didn't work was the HUD, I've not had the change to test it since yesterdays update.
