Tech guy saying what we have found out here is about all there is.

Ive been told there are ways around it we havent thought of yet. Been told to check the CAL, TWL, and planetbattlefield forums because I guess there are some answers floating around. Lets go a huntin ;)

LOL lucky ;). Ya I know the game itself looks nice but I wanted it to look nice in ws too before I would keep my new 2005fpw. Since I cant have both like you, you know any good 24" CRTs lol

lol that sucks. I was hoping youd say its still really nice ;). Im going to wait a little bit longer and try to get answers from BF2 insiders, if there isnt anything Ill probably do what you said and return it and get a bigger 4:3 CRT or something.

I hope this isnt what my BF2 guys told me when they said ws would be supported, it wouldnt be stretched BUT you lose some top and bottom. Is losing those portions a huge thing though while playing?

Ahh I see. So if I played it on my dell 2005fpw at its native res which is 1680x1250, it would not be stretched but it would cut off some of the top and bottom to compensate?

Me too :). Forgot to ask, is there a way to see the stretching without being on a ws monitor, even if it is just pics? Because the comparison pics you posted, the ws one looked ok to me even though the only person I could see was way in the background.

Ah ok. I have the same spec comp as you except only one card so...I just got the 2005fpw dell so Im not sure if I can run it at 1900x1200. If there isnt a solution to BF2 and stretching I will probably return it since its the only game I plan on playing. I was told by ppl within BF2 ws would be ...

Paddy, with the top and bottom cut off is everything still stretched looking? Does it look ok to play as if thats the best solution?
