Widescreen Halo (1280 X 800) with annoying FOV!!!

Hi!

I've added 1280 x 800 as a custom res in my display properties and was able to select that in Halo PC.
The res is fine but the FOV is really messed up! When switching to this res, you can easily notice how a significant portion of the gun gets cut off. About one quarter of the gun (the lower part) doesn't make it on screen. Changing back to a norm 4:3 res fixes it, but I want to play it in 16:10 format.

Is it possible to change the FOV in Halo???

I wish I could take a screenshots and post the differences but I don't know how with this game. :oops:

Thanks in advance!!!

I had already looked at that thread. :wink:

Racer's S FOV Hack didn't work for me! I have the latest version installed and kept the patch program open like instructed. Still, no changes were possible when pressing the + and - keys.

Any other suggestions?

Did you press * to enable the hack ?

Yep, enabled it... even changed the * key value and it still doesn't work. :cry:

Don't know what else to do. A portion of the lower (and probably upper) quarter of the screen gets cut off.

Sorry... I can't think of anything else to suggest ... :(
