can you please add proper 16:10 support? forever grateful. by the way i used your ACRogue 16:10 and that worked perfectly, awesome job.

Thank you very much! It works now. May I ask you how did you do it? I mean I guess you hex edited the exe right? Or not?

I know it is lot to ask but can you fix the ac black flag too? Same issue middle monitor for some reason works and the two sides are blacks. Thanks again! Or if you feel you just tell me how to and I will do the rest. Some guy here suggesting using hex editor and I am interested in the process. Thanks again for your time! )

wow.. thank you very much Sir! working.

UPDATE

Okay there is a problem with this exe jackfuste and i hate to do this to you because you have been so good and generous with us. The issue is, whenever i press a few buttons my game zooms in like im using the naval telescope, happens when i am on land happens when im on the ocean. Zooming in almost always seems to be triggered by using the "interact" button or using mouse1 or mouse2 in conjunction with other key-presses, it is a game breaking problem only happening when loading the game using your 16:10 exe. how unfortunate.

i did not realize this sooner but, come to think of it i believe your hacked AC Rogue 16:10 exe had a similar issue. what happens for me in that game is all single press keybinds for selecting weapons behave like rapid fire key-presses. Up until today i thought it was an issue with how ubisoft ported the game, but now i believe it is caused by your hack. As for the status of rogue i will have to confirm this later when i reinstall it and while it does suck a bit it is not not gamebreaking like how this is but i am curious and eager to confirm if the rapid key-press bug is in fact caused by your alterations.

Hi jackfuste, is it possible to have the ACFC exe for resolution 48_9 please?

jackfuste, here is an example of the zooming bug
my character keeps doing using your mod

then i restart the game with the normal exe and it stops doing that

@jackfuste: no dice with this one (eyefinity 3x1920/1080), only middle screen showing the game, the two others stay black..
It's the stand alone version (uplay) of ACFC..
But as the game seems a cool one i will stay with it and play on one screen

By the way a big thank you for your kindness and your work for us jackfuste

thanks jackfuste, this one is working with no ill effects

Wait, so Assassin's Creed Rogue doesn't natively support triple screen surround/eyefinity out of the box and instead has these black boxes on the side monitors? That's extremely disappointing since I recall almost all Ass Creed games since 2 have supported triple screen natively, including the other recent ones Black Flag and Unity. I was thinking of picking this one up but since it doesn't support it out of the box I might not.

Is there a way to increase the FOV of this game? It'd be really cool if someone could figure out how to do it, i know that CheatEngine worked for AC Black Flag's FOV, not sure about Rogue though.

CheatEngine table here - http://forum.cheatengine.org/viewtopic.php?t=580175

Ok, but is there a way to insert CheatEngine's settings into the game for it to launch automatically? its a bit bothersome having to open the program and activate it every timebefore playing. Im a bit new to this so if you know of a specific guide on how to do this it would be helpful too. Thanks in advance.

Can someone re-up the files?

Hi there,
I have the same issue ( for Assassin's Creed Freedom Cry) and the fix archive is corrupted. Can somebody help me with a good link to download the fix!?
Thanx in advance!

Hi jackfuste,

I appreciate your excellent work on the Assassin's Creed Rogue FOV. I have tried several downloads but so far cannot use without horizontal black bars - I'm sure this is pilot error on my part.

I am using an Nvidia Gforce card and my resolution is 3840X2160 on my 16:9 60Hz monitor. If you or someone else would confirm that I can use your wide screen .exe on my system I would appreciate information on how to accomplish this.

Thanks, raf

Anyone who has successfully achieved this, please advise how. Thanks.

Well, this wouldn't technically be a widescreen fix, but you guys know how to make games work with awkward aspect ratios.

I have a Surface Book, and it has an aspect ratio of 3:2. The only game I've been able to get working on it so far is Morrowind, and I had to use a well-known tool that I'd used before to get 16:9 resolutions working.

Specifically, I want to play this game at 1200x800 on here. The native resolution of 3000x2000 would be unplayable in terms of performance, and the fact that I would barely be able to see the screen anyway. But I really want to use the native 3:2 aspect ratio because letterboxing cuts off too much of my already tiny 13" display.

Well, if anyone else has the same problem I did, I figured out a really clumsy way of fixing this... that really clever guy named Jack who was posting a lot of fixes earlier did most of the work for me, really.

I basically just downloaded his 4:3 and 5:4 fixes, and used fc /b on the commandline to run a binary comparison between two v1 fixes. I found that the difference between them was essentially nine bytes, so I started setting them to random values to see what happened. I'm still not exactly sure what most of them do... but I found the one that did what I wanted.

Essentially, I took his 5:4 fix, and changed the byte at 02353A9A from A0 to C0. I found it totally on accident after changing A0 to B0, and noticing the pillarbox bars got significantly narrower. So I just went one more step with C0, and the bars were gone... the display seemed to fill my 3:2 screen perfectly. Since this is essentially a hack of a hack done by someone stumbling around in a hex editor, it might not as solid as the original fixes or have the correct FOV type stuff... but it should work if you're desperate to get rid of the letterboxing and pillarboxing on a Surface Pro, Surface Book, or other weird 3:2 display that nothing supports.

Since I've always got great help here, i wan't to give the community something back
Some dude uploaded the working files, here's the link:
I use them, they work just fine besides the thing that you can't connect to ubi servers with it...
Tested on viruses with Bitdefender - clean.

The link is broken unfortunately. I still can only play Rogue and Black Flag on the center screen. It bugs me a lot because it used to run fine on three monitors until I downloaded AMD Crimson, which was necessary because I couldn't create an eyefinity group anymore with Catalyst. Anyone else still having the same problem? It is surprising how little information I can find about this. Has Ubisoft released any information about this?

Hi,

Does anyone have the 21:9 fix for this game along with the fix for the standalone Freedom Cry?

Much appreciated if anyone can help by uploading them.

Cheers

Fixes for Freedom Cry and Rogue can now be downloaded from the AC4: BF Detailed Report.
