[quote]Dopefish, widescreen fixer is GREAT! I've used it for MW2, and now for MW3 as well. For the most part it looks great running @ 5760x1200, but all of the INDICATORS (objective markers, team death markers, and countdown overlays) are stretched out and don't stay within' the center monitor.
PLEASE HELP!
I know what you mean... The INDICATORS being stretched make it very hard to play certain game types like Domination and what not. I find that the stretched indicators of the different Map points (A, B) block your vision to a point where it is near impossible to play that game type. Also it would be nice to see a normal size hit maker and score indicator when you get a frag.
ANYWAYS, I want to thank Dopefish for all his work he has done. It looks great so far for MW3! I am sure he will fix the Indicators and what not in the near future ( I hope :) )
There's definitely things that need fixed still, like the text being centered and certain popups (like scoreboard) not being centered.
That may be dopefish, but in the grand scheme of things I think the big rocks have been moved! WELL DONE! The game is now effectively playable with your "experimental version" of the plugin Here's another link to it for good measure: http://www.widescreenfixer.org/g.codmw3mpexp.7z.
By the way, it may be worth while to note that within the VIDEO Settings area, then ADVANCED VIDEO Settings, the IMAGE QUALITY should be set to "Native" (I don't remember this parameter being included in any other COD game. So I included a screen shot to limit confusion). If this isn't set to "Native" the look of the game was ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! (for me, and many I've spoken to). So those of you having issues, CHECK THAT FIRST!
As for the centered score board, and pop up stuff, I'd consider that a bonus. Can't wait to see that, but TOTALLY SATISFIED with the current state of things. LOOKS GREAT!
First of all, I would like to thank Dopefish for the new plugin! Domanation is playable now.
I am playing MW3 at 6048x1080 and a lot of my icons are 'falling of' the middle screen. For example I can't read the score and part of the map is behind the bezels (bezel compensation). Is there any way it would be possible to centre them or change there position?

In a future version of Widescreen Fixer I am adding support to configure for bezel correction.
That would be great. Am I correct in assuming that this version will be released within 1-2 weeks? It should be posted on the front page if you ask me.

I usually don't update the front page until I have something definitive to post. The release date is a rough estimate. I usually post updates and progress within this thread, though, so as long as people are checking this thread they'll see news.
I'm actually working on the main application itself right now.
I just released a new version of the MW3 MP plugin. It's identical to the experimental one I posted before but has correct disabling features (I omitted them from the experimental version).
This one should replace the experimental one if you used it.
First I'd like to thank Dopefish for this little gem as it enabled me to do something I thought impossible: enjoy MW3. For that only I will be making a small paypal donation.
Now my situation is a bit special as I only have one 5:4 monitor and play at 1280x1024, which isn't really "widescreen". However the MW3 widescreen fixer utility enabled me to fix the FOV and more importantly: to get rid of the ugly crosshair in SP and enjoy the campaign.
The inability to remove the crosshair is what convinced me not to buy COD black ops, so I was wondering if the same miracle was possible for that game? Will the current version of the widescreen fixer black ops SP plugin get rid of the crosshair? And if not, would it be possible to release a no crosshair SP plugin? If that's possible then I will gladly buy the game!
I have a problem with my WFS, I tried different games but it only finds 'steam' so i cant activate it in the game (mw3 is one of the main ones i use it for.)
This may be an odd question - but are older versions of WSF available anywhere? My brother has an un-updated version of Modern Warfare 2 on his system, but no internet. The latest WSF doesn't work with his version (seems there are two mw2 sp revisions).

thales actually requested a plugin to remove the crosshair so I did one just for him. Since it seems to be more popular than just him, when I do release a new version of Widescreen Fixer with more options, I will add in the ability to remove the crosshair. I hope to revisit all old CoD games and add in more functionality for each one.

Also, I'm aware that there's an update for MW3. However, Steam has not downloaded this patch for me yet. I've tried to force it to update but I still remain stuck on v1.2.359. As soon as it updates I will work on a fix.

Thank you! Is there an approximate ETA for that new version?
Thanks very much! Doesn't appear to go back far enough though. Do you have any older than 2010? I believe mw2 was 2009, but I'm not sure which version of single player came on the retail disk. All versions of WSF tried say game running: YES (unsupported version) or similar.

They updated it to 1.2.361 and then rolled it back to 1.2.359, nice to know Quallity Assurance is doing their job, lol.
The guy with the 5:4 resolution, how did you fix your FOV ? i mean does it still look streched in any way ?

I just selected 5:4 in the widescreen fixer utility and it looks normal. It was really out of proportion before. I just look at the circle in the EOTECH sights, if it's elliptic it means that the game is still stretched. With the fix it's a perfect circle.

I do not have any versions older than that online. You can go into the settings of Widescreen Fixer and disable the option to show only the latest version. This should show every version of MW2 supported. What's the exact version of MW2 he has?
When Widescreen Fixer says Unrecognized, that's all that it means. It does not mean unsupported. It's just saying it does not recognize which version of the game is being run. The fix may or may not work still.

That probably explains why I still have yet to receive 1.2.361.
I've released a plugin for L.A. Noire. See the details in this post: http://widescreengamingforum.com/forum/forums/gaming/requestdiscuss-game-solutions/18152/la-noire-any-chance-fix?page=1#comment-235111
