Solutions & Issues
Widescreen Solution & Issues:

Go to \scripts. Open PersistentSymbols.ini. Find these lines:

persistent extern INDEX sam_iScreenSizeI=(INDEX)xxxx;
persistent extern INDEX sam_iScreenSizeJ=(INDEX)xxx;

Change them to set your resolution (the first one is your horizontal value, the second is your vertical value).

Now find this line:

persistent extern user FLOAT plr_fFOV=(FLOAT)xx;

Change it to set your FOV. I recommend 100 for 16:10 resolutions and 105 for 16:9 resolutions. Hor+ is dependant on your plr_fFOV setting, and it does not seem to be cheat protected. The servers I joined allowed it to be changed.
