Try it out and let me know.

It works okay here.

It's based on a couple offsets I found and an offset that helifax found, so he gets half the credit. :)

I think it should pretty safe! As we don't actually affect the client (in anyway related with the content of the game) it should be safe. I have never heard of somebody getting banned because he used a tool like this. I might be wrong thou:))

There's always a risk unfortunately. I hope no one ever does get banned because of it but I can't make any guarantee.

I will be using this myself so I'll let you know if anything happens.

Post by dopefish »

Which version of the game do you have?

Did you install via retail, download from their site, or via Origin?

I bought mine retail but I installed it by downloading from their site.

When you start Widescreen Fixer and choose the game from the list, without enabling it, it should show the left HUD position, the HUD width, and the base address. What does it show for you?

Because of the patch today the game's version is now 1.0.2

Test version updated to support v1.0.2.

The HUD offsets might not be static so try it out and let me know if it works for you or not.

Post by dopefish »

For the settings, you just need to set them to your resolution, and your corrected resolution if you use bezel management.

If you do NOT use bezel management and have three 1920x1080 screens, then set BOTH Standard and Corrected resolutions to 5760x1080.

If you do use bezel management, have three 1920x1080 screens, and your corrected resolution is something like 6056x1080 (which is mine), then set the Standard resolution to 5760x1080 and the Corrected resolution to 6056x1080.

The settings probably aren't detailed enough and probably confusing. If you have suggestion on how to word it better and/or make it more user-friendly, please let me know. Thanks.

Post by dopefish »

The index one you can ignore. It should fix itself next time you close and start the app.

The other one I thought I had fixed. Are you replacing the copy on your harddrive with everything inside the archive file? With the test version it's best to overwrite all existing DLLs because of how much changes.

You can pretty much ignore both. I'll work on fixing these when I get a chance.

Sure. In the future, you typically just need to paste the top section of it (the stuff between all the asterisks). You can also PM me it as well to keep it less cluttered here.
