[quote]Version 1.05 is supposed to have a widescreen fix, can anyone confirm this?
More like a widescreen hack. It adds a couple of widescreen resolutions but, the hud is still messed up. Look at my new post for the 16:9 hud fix.
Yea, darnit!!.. i was happy to see "widescreen support" on the v1 ...

nah i mean with bf2142 i can force it to run 1680x1050, which is my native resolution. bf2142 doesnt support widescreen, so max res for me is 1600x1200. there is a command that forces it to run 1680x1050. no stress on monitor. just pain in the arse that it has to be done like that.
Aight!, thx ...

yeah but his is a WS monitor. i think he has specific drivers tho, therefore he can select 16x12 adn the monitor must auto-adjust the aspect ratio. i dunno. i can force it to work in bf2142, im happy with that for now. :)

cheers for all the replies aswell
Doesnt it wreak the lcd monitor ...

That does look cool. Rainbow Six Vegas for the PS3 uses Ageia Physx liek GRAW2, and you an see some differences. Even small things like papers fylign in the wind.
Are u sure abt Vegas uses Ageia?... didnt hear anything abt it tho.

Very strange ... if I set it to Auto with three screens I get the correct aspect ratio for three screens ... so why wouldn't it do 16:10 ? ... :?

Right clicking on the "renderer_settings.xml ...

Try setting it to "Auto"
I juz tested it, when i set to "auto" it set at "4:3"...

Oh well, i guess i have to play it at "16:9", and it definately looks better (doesnt look scretched) compared to "4:3".

So, actually GRAW PC doesnt have "16:10" afterall?... (juz wanna confirm this.. :oops ...

Hmmmz.. well, the first time i heard abt this "Games for Windows" label.. its to show its Windows Vista compatible... :oops: :roll:

I have latest drivers Forceware version 93.71 and i have clicked Fixed aspect ratio on. Now when i run game on 1024 x 768, it gets stretched horribaly to both sides of the screen. With fixed aspect ratio on this shouldn't happen.

[quote]you have to got to the "Ghost Recon Advanced WarfighterDatasettings" folder (where you installed the game) and edit "renderer_settings.xml". You'll find a resolution entry there if I remember correctly; just change it to be 1680 x 1050 in the way it is already set, and it will be all good ...

Adding "Widescreen "0"" to autoexec.cfg removes letterboxing.

Paddy : did u add "Widescreen "0" instead of the typo of "Widescreen "0"" ?.. :oops:

Cheers :wink:
