Widescreen Gaming Forum

UPDATE:

Guys I have been using the fix and have not gotten banned (knock on wood) so far. Thanks

VAC bans are delayed. You won't know if they're banning for it for 2weeks to 2 months.

Not saying you are banned, just saying you won't know if its bannable yet.

Those of you that are worried, please read this : http://www.reddit.com/r/DarkSouls2/comm ... about_vac/

In short, Valve will not respond whether a mod is bannable or not. However, their statement says that the ONLY thing they ban for are mods that give other players an advantage over others.

My interpretation of this means that they will only ban when they know something is 100% a cheat/bannable offence. I think using FWS is safe. Again, this is my opinion based on no concrete facts.

Where is Helifax,will Helifax create fix for DARK SOULS 2 or METAL GEAR RISING REVENGEANCE nothing new from him...

I am still around:) Just been busy with other stuff;)) and didn't have time for other things:) There is no point in fixing an already fixed game;)) So;))

Metal Gear Rising Revenge - I didn't even had time to install it ... yet:))
Dark Souls 2 - I used Hayden's fix and it works perfect for me...haven't played more than one day though:))

I do have Resident Evil 4 fix laying around...but didn't had time to make it in a plugin also:)) So:)) atm pretty busy;)) Thx for asking though ^_^

I use Widescreen fixer because with Flawless Widescreen fixer i always have some problems..That why i ask for Dark soul 2 and metal gear......never mind glad u still around

Why not be proactive and try to figure out why?

Am
I still the only one to have tried 5x1?

I tried the fix as well and it doesn't seem to work.

Fix enabled alone would allow the game to run normally (Black Boxes on monitors 1 and 3)

Aspect or HUD Fix causes all text to disappear and black boxes remain.

****UPDATE****

I was able to fix the issue. I found that I had Flawless Widescreen installed under C:\ while all of my steam games were in E:\
Despite pointing to the location in the settings it seemed to bug out being on a different drive. Re-installing FW under E:\ fixed it all up.

+1. Nowhere did I find instructions that told me I needed to do any of this. The following instructions should be put on a post somewhere on the first page, to help those having issues:

1)If your Steam Library is across multiple drives, add all the directories under Settings > Configuration > Steam Path Matching.

2)If you still have issues, move widescreen fixer binary files and whatnot to the same drive as the game you need to patch.

EDI:
Looks like I broke it. It was all correct but when I finished posting this and re-launched, it squeezed everything to the center screen.

HaYDeN knows about it, see the Flawless Widescreen forum: http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.ph ... 87#p152587

i just tried to use it then... still failing..

must be someone else on this planet besides hayden who can help him out.. must be a headache trying to do everythin for everyone on your own..

can someone post up the version that does work ? i cant find a roll back option to get rid this breaking stuff

I’ve been using FW v1.0.12 with the Dark Souls 2 plug-in released on the 26th of April. It worked perfectly for my monitor 1280x1024 and I had disabled auto-update to prevent any problems. “Why mess with it, if it works, right?” But today I needed to download a new plugin for a new game and I had to update to download the other plugin for some reason.

The new Dark Souls 2 plugin gives me a bug where some text on some action prompts is out of place. I think it’s from the updated plugin because the bug is present in both v1.0.12 and v1.0.15 of FW.

Now I need the plugin from the 26th or the 27th don’t know which one I downloaded last before I turned off auto-update. I’m not worried about VAC bans. If someone has these versions of the plugin please post them or send them to me.

Please I’m kind of bummed out because it was perfect and I just knew something like this would happen. Next time I’ll remember to have a second folder with a second FW for other games.

Edit: After some fiddling around I think what happened was that the fix for party members broke the text on other menus with Hud fix on, when I disable Hud fix it gets a bit better but then I have a different issue where stat bonuses don’t display directly under the stamina bar.

I need the plugin from the 26th of April, since that one worked for me and I don’t care for the party members name bug. I don’t use summons anyway and I like having Hud fix on.

Hi, new update 1.11 has broken the fix.....Hayden please

Hello, there was an update last week and it broke the game, any help would be appreciated

Snap! Same issue
