Widescreen Gaming Forum

Totally good enough. Thanks Master.

Salute Helifax

Latest Steam patch (3rd Sept 2014 - v1.?) breaks Widescreen Fixer. Obviously a plugin update is required .... Hope Helifax isn't done with the game, it's beautiful.

I'm in.

I have always wanted to run my centre 23" in Portrait to be able get just a little more vertical view. Have been able to do it with SoftTH, but it's only DX9 ... and has to be man-handled game-by-game.

So sorry for the late reply ..... I've been away.

No good heli .... there is no change to the symptoms.

- You start a conversation
OK
- You press the workaround key - Do you see the FOV changed?
Yes
- You press Enter (and blindly select a conversation). Once the conversation is ...

Yes ... I've tried all combos & variations of fix on/off and work-around on/off. No dialogue.

And yes, I do agree that the solution you are seeking is far superior, but as it stands, it's just not playable with the patch version. I appreciate the fact that you would rather hack away (:-)) at a ...

I think someone has already suggested this helifax, but why not make it the same as your hack from the original version .... that was good enough!!

I appreciate that you are doing more fancy stuff with memory here, but it doesn't really matter at the end of the day.

Opening menus are now fixed. No more distorted garble.

Dialogue in conversations still non existent. I'm still experimenting with work-around.

Closer helifax, closer :-)

Hi helifax,

Thanks for this ... working on the Steam patched version at 5040 ... however I am having the same issue as Falcon1.

Have tried different keys mapped for workaround etc ... still no dialogue.

Yeah good one Badman ... modifying the .exe on the disk and not the running program. Now using CE.

Thanks again dopefish.

Outstanding. Thank you.

Are these offsets? or hex values within the .exe?

Wait, just had a look with Hexworkshop ... they're not offsets or values. What are they Dopefish?

P.S. I'm also having a look in the .exe using PE Explorer and can see some virual addresses that correspond to ...

The "...CryostasisDataScriptsdescriptionweapon.cfg" file has a good effect on weapons FOV ... not perfect, but good.

Addendum to my previous point 3 (courtesy of Simian_ from the Steam forums): -

Open your autoexec.cfg (it's in the game folder) and add these lines:

d.consoleh = 1
r.showlogos = 0
r.fov = 95
r.aspectratio = 1.777778
c.camdist = 45

Save the file. START A NEW GAME. Your old game ...

This is simply one of the best horror games ever made.

The atmosphere has been mentioned over-and-over again in other reviews, but there is something more.

This game (from a computer science and engineering perspective) is brilliant; from the advanced Physx water and ice effects, to the ...

Silent Hunter 5 (This would be massively popular with the SH community .. the image flips > 2200pix hor ... it's the holy grail)
Silent Hill: Homecoming
Saints Row 2 ..... FOV
Rogue Warrior (Even though it's crap ... its hilarious wih Mickey Rourke)
Dangerous Waters (Please Please Please ...

Daemon785 .... sorry ..... didn't mean to exclude you.

Use "opencoop" if you want to play either Doom3 or RoE (the expansion) in coop ... I have it all working perfectly in triple (with heaps of gfx mods)

PM me if you need help.... or anyone else for that matter.

If anyone wants to know how to fix "The Dark Mod" :) ...

1) Extract all files (binary.conf & gamex86.dll) from tdm_game01.pk4
2) hack gamex86.dll (Float 9 -> 4 ... four occurrences)
3) create a NEW tdm_game01.pk4 that includes the hacked dll and the original binary.conf
- just use 7zip to ...

GOG 1.1 is AOK ... working perfectly now!!!!!!

HaYDeN .... PM Sent.

P.S. (Of-Topic) Your Graw 2 WS Fix is singularly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen :-) . I know you have rolled it into Flawless, but outstanding effort. It was one game that the community eventually gave up on ... then BAM, here comes HaYDeN.

How do you find ...

GOG 1.1 ... ATI 5040 x 1050 ... Flawless 1.0.3 .... Eyefinity Broken

But fullscreen bug is fixed, and Framerate improved ........ perhaps because of Catalyst 11.5b Hotfix (Crossfire optimized)
