Maybe it even uses subtitle font? Wonder if it's possible to change it.

Any way to make them more circular? Basically make it appear like it's not cut off by straight line.

also mouse is bugged with 4:3 resolution

Hey there,

first of all I'd like to thank you for all these great Widescreen Fixes, ThirteenAG. Keep up the great work - your fixes are amazing!

I couldn't get the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 Widescreen Fix to work.

This is what I did so far:

1. Copied the content of the archive to the THPS folder (where the skate3.exe is located).
2. Since my native resolution is 1440x900, I've created a 1440x1080 (4:3) resolution manually. Because I'm using a Radeon HD 7850, I used a tool by the name of Custom Resolution Utility (CRU) to create that custom resolution. As you can see on the following screenshot, that worked:

1. I edited the TonyHawksProSkater3_widescreen_fix.ini as follows:

[MAIN]
X = 1440
Y = 1080
HUD_PATCH = 1

Now the game looks like this:

And this is what I actually see on the screen (same screenshot):

I am using the following skate3.exe:

What am I doing wrong?

Would it be possible to add the IVRadarScaling option to the GTA: San Andreas fix like in the Vice City and GTA 3 fixes?

Apparently they are broken. I completely forgot they exist. Courtesy of Wesser's WS fix I assume.

Hello. Thanks for the NFS contribution.

I edited all the values of the file ("nfsmw_res") , but I can't get it to fit the screen. Even I slowed the resolution of my monitor. It works, but you did the previous update of the mod.

This makes me think that it works above 1080* resolution, mine is 1440x900. Thank you, I hope it has repair.

Then make it configurable in .ini like others.

Can you fix menu in GTA 3, text and logo in not centered. Thanks

Makes GTA2 compatible on modern Windows and stuff, but uses D3D rather than DDraw which your WS fix is hooking into.

After GET READY it just crashes.

I found my issue, and fixed it. Sorry for harassment.

Sniper Elite fix still in the unplayable state and I need to finish it.

It's too BIG. Like huge as hell. It's more obvious in fullscreen rather than thumbs so click on them.

Hi, i have problem with shadows for font, sometimes they are bigger, sometimes they are smaller. Option in ini doesn't do anything.

The menu is just tiny rectangle in top left corner which isn't really ideal. It'd be ideal to make the fix work only ingame.
Also the game crashes on exit when using your fix. Sometimes you need to use task manager and kill the process.
BTW the fixed London 69/61 works with your fix too so good job.

Is it possible to add a nice function to this "patch"?
When you ALT+TAB GTA:SA the window always get minimized, "SA Window" (http://www.gtagarage...how.php?id=4404) prevents the game from minimizing when it's run as "Windowed" but it doesn't prevents the game from pausing/freezing when the window is not on "focus".
Is there any flag in the RenderWare engine to set the game to be always active?
So for example... You can have the game running under another monitor and browsing the internet on another. (Useful for SA-MP)

'Widescreen HUD' is selectable in the game's mod launcher. Does this mean that only the HUD is stretched if I decide to use another mod instead?

Pretty obvious even from your screen on the website.
Are they off-screen? :D

I have GTA VC Im not sure which version it is but I know it is 3.1MB. Anyways I installed the Widescreen Fix by placing it in my root file however nothing happened and my FOV is still the same. Does anyone know how to fix this issue.

This is still happening and the culprit is the Wesser's WS fix. If you have some idea how to fix it I'm willing to test anything.

I've only noticed this problem in GTAVC, GTAIII is free of this problem. I have not tested for it in GTASA.

Since this site can't embed Webm files I've posted a link to my dropbox. It's only 6MB so nobody should have trouble viewing it.

The widescreen fix for THPS4 crashs on the french version (black screen and exit).
The US version works very well of course.

I can send the required files if necessary in order to work on a possible fix, thanks!

Without the fix the game starts with no problems.

2. you can remove shadowbuffer forcing option, there's already a fix and it is already good: http://www.jiri-dvorak.cz/scellpt/index.html

P.S.: Shadowbuffer forcing option in Splinter Cell 1 is deprecated too (see your other fix), 'cause no today GPU with today drivers can handle the old technique used in Splinter Cell 1. Best solution is forcing PROJECTOR MODE, waiting for a fix like the Pandora Tomorrow's one linked before.

it crashes upon start giving me an empty error log

Any hope to see the HUD fix in the next months/years? Resolution Fix rocks! 💃

Here's a humble request for your godlike gamefixing intervention!

Do you remember the neverborn third chapter of Deus Ex, waaaaay before Human Revolution was in work? Yes, DX Clan Wars....better known (and released) to humans as "Project Snowblind" :D

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Snowblind

I hope you remember this PS2-to-PC port.....cause - like every PS2 brutal port - it doesn't support resolutions other than 4:3 ones.....and it's just a pity cause the game is actually very gameplay wise: it's a hidden gem, buried behind the worst port ever :D
So.....here's the request(s) :v

*Enable 16:9 resolutions (hacking the engine - yes it's an early version of Crystal Dymanic Engine!) and maybe the relative correct FOV and other
*enable proper HUD scaling
*texture override possibility for community texture pack

All the Deus Ex fans will rejoice if you do your magic with PS and will be eternally thankful to you !
Thanks in advance for reading this mail!

This fix also mostly works for surround resolutions. I'm playing at 6048x1080 and the crosshair is located much farther to the right than normal, the hitpoint is where the crosshair should be. I have not tested it with San Andreas.

Here are two images to compare with.
This is the proper placement of the cross-hair that occurs when I play the game at 1920x1080:

This is the improper placement when I play at my native resolution:

Other than this, the fix is flawless for me on GTA III. Thanks for your hard work!

edited to be more accurate.

This is just a small issue that I'd consider low priority, but it'd be cool.
2013 is W8 only I think and 2012 stuff usually works in 2013 so just 2012 would be good enough.
Oh right I mean the old stuff so you don't have to upgrade all of them in VS manually.

Both

With the fix:

With Max Payne 2 Steam version, the comics are looking too narrow. Someone had mentioned this a while back also.

In widescreen_fix.ini there's only line "COMICS_MODE = 0". Do I have to create a command for changing the FOV?
EDIT: Sorry, only applies to first game.

When viewing the map from the menu, if the IVRadarScaling option is enabled, the player position ('You are here') marker becomes huge and slightly inaccurate.

The scope displays incorrect skybox FoV and adjusting scope zoom on it zooms in/out skybox ie.moon in both cases.

Because it's big and blurry.

Game only supports 4:3, and just stretches the image if you go wider. So it could use a widescreen fix.

Hi,

I'm experiencing many crashes before cutscenes and loading saves, using 1.4 version with correct crack. Also, Picture in Picture is broken, "video" goes out of bounds. Also, would it be possible to make HUD like the Xbox version? Thanks man, never would have thought that someone would truly try to fix these old awesome games! Keep up.

Thank you for this Fix, but it only works with US version. The EU version has other EXE file (and other patch 1.2).
