Well I got it to somewhat work with TH2G 3.75 Ratio it looks right but the game heavily glitches. I don't know if its my system not able to handle it or not but the first screen is fine but as soon as I get outside everything pretty much disappears.

I turned all the settings down and still same thing happened. However! It did work so that's a step in the right direction! Keep up the good work!

At 3.75 I see way too much of the character and the aspect ratio isn't correct ... he is squashed down a bit.
I also get the glitches ... objects disappearing /repeating.
Take a screenshot at a non TH res and then compare it to a TH one.

The 1.1 patch is out.

http://www.pandemicstudios.com/mercenaries/patches.php

It seems like they haven't take it public yet, found some forum post there that they had removed it already :(

yeah I saw that too and I don't see any specifications to what they are "Patching" :?

When it was up, the patch notes just said "Added most 4:3 and 16:9 resolutions", so unless they're being vague, that still doesn't give much hope for 16:10 ones.

I downloaded it but it wouldn't work which is perhaps why they pulled it. Error message every time.

Bah. The 1.1 patch did add 16:10 resolutions, but the aspect ratio is still rendered at 16:9. Everthing's vertically stretched.

Racer_S, any chance we can get an updated fix, please? The patch fixed some other problems I had, so I like that, but the aspect ratio is obnoxious.

For 16:10 open Mercenaries2.exe with a hex editor and search for

AB AA AA 3F 39 8E E3 3F

and change the last four pairs to

AB AA AA 3F CD CC CC 3F

You lose a little vert vs. 16:9 but not as much as default 4:3.

Less Old

This does nothing for the sucking however.
