[quote]Anyone seen Dopefish??

Yeah I think he looks a little like this

;)

Yes that is him.....pleeeeeeeze Mr. DF find time for the 1.1 fix :)

rstang281 · Post by **rstang281** » 24 Nov 2008, 02:30

Is there any chance that DF shared any of his development with anyone here? Maybe some one else has a fix for CoD5 v1.1. It has been almost 3 weeks since the release of the game/patch 1.1 and still no fix or update.

Is better to wait the patch 1.2 release... there are a lot of people that CODWAW (pc version) work very bad!!! (crashes, blackscreen, ecc. see forums on callofduy.com)...

Great game...would be much better using the other 2/3 of my setup.

Post by **dopefish** » 11 Dec 2008, 21:00

Yeah. I hadn't gotten around to it. I only have multiplayer fixed for v1.1 at the moment. I took a vacation and I got back last week so I'm still recovering. ;)

Sorry, I forgot about this. I've had MP support for 1.1 working since the day the 1.1 patch came out. I was just holding off on releasing it in hopes of getting 1.1 SP working.

Anyway, I'll probably release a new version later tonight. I'm trying to backport the way I do the aspect ratio in CoD5 back to CoD4 (so maybe CoD4 will work online).

This is my changelog so far:

* Added support for Call of Duty: World at War v1.1 (Multi-Player)
* Added a new method for Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare that might let it work online. THERE IS NO GUARANTEE AND YOU TEST THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
* Added support for 17:10 (1024x600)
* Due to adding support for 17:10, I discovered a bug using 3 x 16:9 with BioShock.

That would be godly of you.

Post by **dopefish** » 11 Jan 2009, 00:31

Been trying but it still kicks me every time. :/

The way the calculation is done in released versions is that it redirects the writing of the aspect ratio to another area of code. In this area, I actually modify the game's code to correct the aspect ratio, and then I let it write the value out.

The way I just tried to do it is within Widescreen Fixer itself. I don't have it redirect the writing of the aspect ratio, but instead I have it write the aspect ratio out to an empty area of memory. Then in Widescreen Fixer, I read in that value and perform all calculations internally, and then I write the value out to where it was supposed to go. So the only modification of the game code is one line where I change where the aspect ratio gets written... and PB still kicks me for corrupted memory.

It really seems like there's no hope for it.

Apparently I missed something entirely awesome.

Things are looking good in my mind.

Time to test..........................

Post by **dopefish** » 11 Jan 2009, 00:58

So far so good.... using the exact same method now as in CoD:WaW. :)

Everything is looking good.

I just got back from a rebuild and noticed, is there no CoD:WaW SP 1.1 support?
However I am enjoying going back to CoD4 @5040 MP :)

Post by **dopefish** » 13 Jan 2009, 15:10

Nope. Something changed in v1.1 SP that I haven't figured out just yet.

You can still play single player using the v1.0 exe. The changes made to the game in that patch mostly only affected MP. So just make a backup of your SP exe and replace it with a v1.0 exe and use that.
