Vista 32bit user here, works like a charm. just want to tell people to make sure they checked wich version they are using, demo or retail... at first i had no results until i noticed retail was checked when i was actually running the demo. Once demo was checked, bingo. works A1. thanks for the fix.
Works great for me in retail 1.0 on XP SP2. I'm playing in 1600x900 (even though I have a 4:3 monitor) and eyeballed the correct settings by doing the following:
1) Equip the wrench.
2) Decrease Hieght FOV until the tattoo was clear on my wrist.
3) Walked over to where there was something perfectly round (wheels along walls work rather well).
4) Decreased Vertical FOV until it looked perfectly round.
I ended up with these values:
Width: 0.766
Height: 0.804
Might not be mathematically correct, but it looks right to my eyes anyway.
Hmm, could we do some testing visually as to see what would be the "official" FoV for certain Resolutions and Aspect Ratio's using the hack. ?
I think finetuning from my 16:10 settings is the way to go. I might do it myself when I can get arsed to play to demo again and get the wrench and stuff :P.

I have done that, it still didn't work, and I just got an e-mail from play.com telling me my order has been posted !! I really hope it works for the retail version as its just doing nothing with the demo at all :(
Really sorry to sound like I'm moaning, I really do appreciate your hard work Racer & Paddy, but it's so frustrating seeing everyone gettting it to work while I can't!
I just played a bit. And when you enter the stairs in the demo where you have your first combat, there is a door (which you open with the lightning bold) with a round object on it. With switching between my settings and the default ones I spotted that mine is still a bit horizontally stretched. Only a couple of pixels though.
Awesome work getting this tool out, and faster than 2k!
So can I use this tool to play at a lower resolution stretched to fill my monitor, but with the FOV changed so that it looks normal? Just trying to make maximum use of my WS monitor, but also trying to smooth out the framerate a bit by decreasing the load on my GPU.
