Thanks again Racer_S! :D

Now I can finally get going (I'm starting over with the patched version).

Hi, Could you tell me the FOV setting for 1440x900 please. Thanks in advance :D

1440x900 is 16:10, so use:

Cfg.FOV = 105

Try turning off the "nVidia Scaling", and use "Do not Scale" instead. Then you can use the monitor's 1:1 pixel mapping (assuming it supports 1:1).

With the 8800's, you can't turn off the nVidia Scaling with current drivers :(, but I thought other cards weren't affected?

This morning, I decided to install the patch and start over, but I didn't know the FOV hack would be affected :(.

At least I kept my old saves in another folder, so I can reinstall and continue with WS if I want, but I think I'll wait and see if racer_s updates his fix.

The screen is way ...

The exact FOV to use for a 16:9 screen is:

Cfg.FOV = 111.002536

And this truly is a terrific game, both single and multiplayer!

For standard widescreen users (like me), who are probably wondering what the exact FOV for a 16:10 screen is, I've used X-ray Doc's formula to work it out ...

Yes, but I think it still requires you to edit config.ini, to fix the FOV

For 16:10, use:
Cfg.FOV = 105

Hi,
I recently bought a 2407WFP, so I'm rediscovering all my old games in widescreen format :D. This website has been a great help so far, so I'd like to say thanks to everyone who contributed. :)

I searched these forums for help with CMC 4, and I found the registry hack to allow widescreen ...
