Cold War

Profile picture for user czarman

Cold War's gameplay is based on stealth, similar to games like Splinter Cell or Dark Project. Being a journalist you are no weapons expert, so you should try to be stealthy and attack only when necessary. To help even the odds, you can create useful gadgets out of items you find, improvising things like gas grenades, anesthesia ammunition or distraction items.

2. Go to C:\Users\...\Documents\Cold War and copy Config.txt to ...\Steam\steamapps\common\Cold War (your Game root folder)
3. Edit your des. resolution in Config.txt
4. Rename coldwar.exe --> coldwar_setup.exe and coldwar.ex --> coldwar.exe
5. Now comes the hexedit part. Open coldwar.exe in a hexeditor and change the following Offsets:

Aspect Ratio: Go to Offset 1EF90 look for 00 00 80 3F and change it to 00 00 58 3F (16:10) or to 00 00 40 3F (16:9)
