Ahh, that is a shame for Steam buyers. :(

I trust Steam for a few games (anything Source based), but I am reluctant about using it for games like STALKER. I originally bought Stalker retail on DVD, and damn that thing needed patches and mods!

It may not be working in the normal retail version of the game either ... anyone got it yet ?

Same problem exists in the retail version as in Steam. It shows up fine, with the menu centered and shrunk, but after choosing the language it resets the aspect ratio!

There needs to be a way either to disable choosing the language or to force set the physical aspect ratio after choosing the language.

I hope someone figures something out soon, since I don't want to play it until it works properly in TH2Go :).

I know what you are saying ... I love the demo and can't wait to play this in TH ...
So near and yet so far ... :(

I tried setting PhysicalAspectRatio to 4.000000 in game.cfg, then write-protected the file, but it didnt help.

One thing I did notice though - No matter what aspect ratio I set in game.cfg, it always returns to whatever value I set using the in-game options, meaning it's storing that value somewhere else?

I Fixed the Aspect Ratio in Jericho ... :D

IMPORTANT : In game the aspect ratio must be set to 16:9 ... so ... set the Aspect Ratio to 16:9 ... FIRST !

Download this file ... Profile.rar ... approx 100kb

Make a backup of your original found here ... C:Documents and SettingsAdministratorMy DocumentsCodemastersClive Barker's Jericho
Then replace that original with mine from the rar ... :D

When you start the game up it will say your profile is corrupt ... click ok and it will make a new one that will say it is at 16:9 but in fact it will be right for TripleHead ... :D

A screenshot from the Steam version ... but it should work for the normal retail version ...

Ooooh, that's cool. If more Steam games were easy to fix like that I would buy more I think.
