Hey, this is my first widescreen report, not sure how to grade, but I've posted the solution and as much as I could find.

==Game Information==
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell. Runs on Unreal Engine. Does not follow usual Unreal/Deus Ex .ini methods

No native widescreen support; maximum in-game resolution is set at 1600x1200.

==Version==

Using Steam copy, should work on all versions as far as I'm aware.

==Method==
.ini change

To change to a higher resolution you must edit splinter cell/system/SplinterCellUser.ini

Go to this section:
[Engine.EPCGameOptions]
AnimatedGeometry=True
ShadowLevel=0
LightMapsLevel=0
TextureLevel=0
Resolution=1920x1200


FOV change is implemented here in the same file:
[Engine.PlayerController]
DesiredFOV=85
DefaultFOV=85


(If you put decimal places in with the FOV it will crash the game upon launch)

==Screen change==

4:3 gameplay screenshot (FOV 75 @ 1600x1200)

16:10 gameplay screenshot (FOV 85 @ 1920x1200)

16:9 gameplay screenshot (FOV 91 @ 1280x720):


==Supported resolutions==
List of widescreen resolutions the game successfully ran at: 1280x720, 1280x768, 1280x800, 1440x900, 1680x1050, 1920x1080, 1920x1200.
List of widescreen resolutions that were not tested:
List of widescreen resolutions the game fails to run at:

==Singleplayer anomalies==
FMV videos play at 640x480.
The in-game HUD stretches depending upon FOV.

==Multiplayer support==
No Multiplayer.

==Cut-scenes==
As far as I can tell cut scenes are affected exactly the same as normal gameplay.
The FMV's play at 640x480.

==Grading==
I'm not sure how to grade the game.

This seems to be the Steam version, though? Is it any different to the non-Steam version?

Based on the DR's, I don't see any differences. AFAIK, the only game that really has a "Steam version" where any of the programming is actually different from the retail version would be Half-Life, and its mods such as Counterstrike.
