What does Widescreen Fixer say for the left hud position, hud width, and base address?

It's not working because the game was patched.

Whenever there is a new version of a game, the tool will stop working until the offsets are updated.



That's what I thought, but figured it would be best to provide more information then not have enough (c;

I have the latest patch you guys have done and it's working flawlessly. Thank you both for all the hard work your putting into this.

Howdy,

I really appreciate the tool. I've been using it for a year in various CoD games, and I'm excited it'll finally let me play SWTOR in widescreen. When activating it today, the HUD is off to the right by maybe 100 pixels? It's infinitely better than the default, but the minimap and quest log are caught in the split between monitors.

Hopefully useful information:

Surround, 5760 x 1080, no bezel correction
Running fixer as an admin.

The tool reports:
Left HUD Position 2068
HUD Width as 1920
Base Address of 0x270000

Also, I'm sure this is a limitation of it, but is there any way to move the chat windows outside of the central monitor? The biggest reason I wanted to go surround instead of just playing on the center monitor was to be able to drag chat windows over there.

Ooops -- hitting the gear icon next to the game and correcting my resolution (taking out the bezel?) fixed the HUD. Thanks for the great product.

I am sorry to say...but that is not possible...because the whole render area for the hud is the resolution of one monitor.. so basically you cannot go with the chat on another monitor...
I guess you can still disable the fix and have everything in the original state and drag the chat window to the central monitor and for party frames use the Operation frames that can also be dragged:)
It will be like this until they actually implement a way to position everything on your screen so we won't need any tool to center the hud;))

Best Regards

There is plans to make the whole HUD modular, so you can move things around the way that you want. I have not seen anything that would say when it will happen though. It was something they said they were working on in the beta, but since release I haven't seen any official word on it.

Patch 1.0.2c was rolled today! Can anyone try the tool with the new version? and tell us if its still working?
I am at work at the moment..still alot till evening when I can fix it (If Dopefish doesn't release it sooner:)) )

Fixer seems to be working

Fixer seems to be working with patch 1.0.2c in that the game spans across all screens and there are no errors or crashes.. I just got in to the surround setup yesterday and I have spent a pretty good chunk of time fiddling with it. You guys seem to have your hud centered on the center screen but I have not been successful in achieving that. In Widescreen fixer my standard res is 5760 x 1080 and my corrected res is 6056 x 1080. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

The fix is still working. No update needed.

If your resolution is a bit off, just click the gear icon next to the game name drop down, and adjust your resolution. Mine was a bit off yesterday, I guess it was assuming bezel correction, and once I told it my resolution was 5760 it works like a champ. And still works today.

I have to disable it on the galaxy map to get tooltips, and I can't double click on my character at the selection screen to play. I have to click and then click play. Pretty minor issues, though.

Double-clicking your character seems to be hit or miss. Even without the fix, sometimes I just can't double-click. I already got into the habit of clicking play.

Maybe its me. But I put the .dll in the root folder with the application. I hit * while playing and it does nothing. I'v used widescreenfixer for many other games so I understand how to use it. Maybe its because were in patch 1.02d. But I am unable to get it working

Widescreen Fixer still works

Widescreen Fixer still works with the latest version.

Does it list your HUD width on the tool itself?

Even if you do not enable it, it should still list the width of your HUD.
