Mass Effect 3 - Final - no multi(like demo)

[valcan_s]

Hey Guys, just started playing the final version of Mass Effect 3 it suffers the same issues the demo had(before fixed), so I am sure a modified version of widescreenfixer will do the job.

If you have the game pre ordered and pre loaded you can play it now:

proxy --> 222.118.167.142 port 80 just change this in your connections settings in IE, unlock the game then switch back the proxy and play.

Yes, it's unfortunate isn't it?

It's quite a serious offender in terms of FOV, etc. Everything is clearly in "See Everything From Your Couch" mode.

The funny thing is, even if you -wanted- to sit back a ways on your PC to play, you would need wireless KB/M combo to do so, because there is no gamepad support either. (I'm not usually a gamepad fan, but if I start to get nauseous or dizzy from the offending FOV/Resolution, then I plug one in and sit back. Assassin's Creed i.e., is really bad in that regard because of the vertigo inducing wild camera, even in eyefinity.

Ok...I've waited about 5 seconds which should be plenty of time for Helifax to make his fix....HELIFAX!!! :P :P

Hehe:)) Fix is done;)) Still need some tweaks here and there but fixed:

- Centered HUD the same as in the demo. Some markers might not be properly alligned
- Fixed the following FOVs: Normal, Running, Cover. I like the closeup for AIM though so I will not modify this
- Fix still needs to be enabled once you reach the MAIN MENU, or when REVERTING to MAIN MENU

Not Fixed: Scaling of persons in menus:)

Still writing the plugin for WSF. I have the N7 Digital Edition from Origin. Others with other type of packages be advise IT Might WORK OR NOT ;)) I will release the plugin tomorrow evening, after I have it properly working.

Best Regards,
Helifax

hahaha I knew it! The wiz...Although I'm pretty sure this would have warranted a sick day to complete it and get it out :P So it looks like I'll be waiting till tomorrow to play this bad boy! Thanks by the way :)

until that, however, use this:

http://www.mediafire.com/?5j74c4n4c4b4h05

modified coalesced.bin, made by my humble self, increases fov, and doesn't break zooming.
some "user input" is required during conversationscutscenes though.
available in fov 75-110, easily modified to fit your requirements. see readme file for more details.

is this for multi monitor? or single? Because I'd say the full release will be the same as the demo in the fact that nvidia uses have zoomed in menus after the main, so I can't create/import characters etc. So unless this works on the menu's also then I have to wait :( I'm not going to play single...I can wait :)

A gentleman and a scholar. Well done sir. Well done.

I uploaded a new version of Widescreen Fixer that adds HUD centering for initial game release v1.00. Helifax also sent me some preliminary FoV fix with it but I didn't have a lot of time to look at that and implement it yet. I'll work with him more on it tomorrow and I'll release a new plugin then.

Thanks - but when are you supposed to hit * on numpad? It says to wait at least till the main menu, i wait till my games loaded and im out in the real world - but it crashes everytime. Running Radeon 6970 in Crossfire. It natively supports Eyefinith (probably Nvidia Surround), but the menus and character status (when upgrading) is totally unusable.

Hopefully you can get it to work at let me know how to do it :)

Appreciate the hard work.

I have the same problem with my single HD5870, crashes when the fix is applied but the plugin hasn't been finalized yet. Kinda sucks seeing as both the config tool and in-game settings allow you to change to eyefinity resolutions but then the menus are just all zoomed way in. It's like they made it compatible at the last second but then forgot to test it out lol.

Looking forward to getting this fixed up!

By using a combination of CK's fov fix to set the fov to 100 and the hud fix provided by dopefish i am able to play the game at 3XL with no fov/hud/zoom issues , with the exception of the weapon mod screen.

The only problem I can find is the weapon mods arent displayed or selectable for each gun when choosing your deployment,

This is at 6050x1080 using Nvidia 3d surround using 4 x 580gtx's on 3 x acer HN274

I also did not encounter any issues with any cut scenes when using the above methods,

My game exe also reports it is version 1.01 not version 1.00, and is the origin N7 version (en_US not Russian).

I would take some screenshots but whenever i hit print screen it provides me black blank screenshots back (very interesting - may be to do with the 3d, will try turning it off)

[Syonco]

Yep same problem, game crashes when enabling the plugin.

[helifax]

Yep same problem, game crashes when enabling the plugin.

If the plugin for the Demo version worked. It should work for this also. I know that at some point people got crashes due to AMD's sucky drivers.....
Also, the game should work natively withEyefinity with no bezel correction for the menus. This fix works for NV Surround as I dont have Eyefinity, nor I suspect to crash the game...

Re-try with the latest drivers from ATI (leaked ones or something) and make sure that is not a driver problem.

Screenshots as promised ;) (tried to make these as generic and spoiler free as possible!)
