Boo EA. They never care about that in Need for Speed games.

Played through in hood view... In Ultrawide I preferred a less "optimized" HUD to keep the minimap in check:

Code: Select all

GstRender.ScreenSafeAreaWidth 0.666666

It's so sad to get tunnel vision on third-person views when the bulk of the game is actually UW- and MM-friendly. Rivals sans Flawless WS was the same. Ghost Games, wake up !

It seems it’s possible to get it working through Flawless Widescreen app, just need help with getting the game approved and working on it since this game is similar to Rivals

I don't have this game, so I need someone who can share account with game for a while or donate a game key.
I can try to fix FOV without the game, but then I need NeedForSpeedPayback.exe memory dump:
  • Install - http://www.ntcore.com/files/ExplorerSuite.exe
  • Run C:\Program Files\NTCore\Explorer Suite\Task Explorer-x64.exe as Admin
  • Startup game and Alt+Tab it
  • In Task Explorer click right mouse button on "NeedForSpeedPayback" and select "Dump PE"
  • Upload "NeedForSpeedPayback_Dumped.exe" file

I made a trainer for increase FOV, but without game I can't test it, so not sure will it work at all.

21:9 scales perfectly with this version of the trainer. Haven't spotted any issues at all so far, both singleplayer and online.
Well done!

Hey jackfuste, I could score you a key from https://www.greenmangaming.com/games/ne ... d-payback/ just make sure you are from NA. It does not say a specific region so it should be fine anyways(check out the link and see what region it shows or if no specific one). I have been waiting for them to fix it but it seems like it will never happen cause EA doesn't care.

I have been working own my own game for a while self funded and my funds are pretty tight but I have been wanting to play NFSPB in 5760x1080 since it came out. So pm me your email and I will hook you up with a copy so you can look into it and fix it if you can. From what I gather it is totally just a FOV issue.

Thanks dude :rockout:

[ update ] : just sent you the key for the game, a massive thanks for all your help we all appreciate it!

  • Run it and install at least one plugin from "Available plugins"
  • Copy to C:\Program Files (x86)\Flawless Widescreen\ all files from this archive:

Damn that was fast! Works perfectly, a massive thank you. I have been dying to play it and now I finally can, It looks amazing in 5760x1080 :rockout: so good.

Thanks again, the community really appreciates all your work.

Is there a solution? :wave:
