AussieTimmeh, thanks for the DR update. Are all SP anomalies unchanged though ?

Can anyone take new comparison screenshots using the fix ?

I get the following error using the latest version of the plugin:



When I click "ignore" I can get to the config menu, but resolution and screen count options are greyed out (and blank). The fix works in-game (Origin version) but the FOV option does not work (seems to use 130 no matter what I set), and the error concerns me. Running Windows 7 x64 with all relevant updates installed. Other games Widescreen Fixer supports do not give me any such errors.

Have you tried to ignore the error and disable automatic detection in the config of the plugin and manually set it up?:)

Thanks for the quick replies! Unfortunately I'm not sure the advice will help. I haven't previously installed Widescreen Fixer (newest version is the only one I've ever used), and turning off automatic detection doesn't help - the screen count and resolution boxes are still greyed out.

EDIT: Never mind! I didn't realize the plugin came with the newest version of Widescreen Fixer, and had been installing an outdated one on top of it. This version works just fine. Sorry about the mix-up.

Hello I can get this to work just fine but I'm not sure of what FOV to pick. I'm looking for something just a smidge more zoomed out than the default is. 130 (which is what widescreenfix is automatically set to) is way too far out and my character ends up tiny. I'm a using a single 1680x1050 monitor (which is manually set up in the configuration).
So what should I set the FOV to? And if you don't know then could you at least tell me what the game's default FOV is so that I can work my way up from there?

For a single screen the FOV is about 65. However, it's about what feels right to you. Just grab the slider and drag it lower to a value you find acceptable.

I know it's about personal taste but I just needed some sort of starting point so thanks :)
If anyone knows more specifically what the default FOV is rather it just being around 65 then you answer is still welcome as well though.

I tried quite a few settings and one that worked great for me is indeed odd for single monitors, but it works great for me whether I'm using 3 or just 1 monitor. My settings are 170 for the FOV, uncheck automatic, display set to 3, resolution 5760 by 1080. Here's the odd part, go into the game, enable it, load your game, run forward a few steps for it to kick in, then disable it. The screen pulls back farther when I disable it and the distance is just right for how I want my view. Granted, everyone has their own personal preferences, so some people may not like that view. :)

I said about 65 because it's not a consistent number. It's a float and it's usually somewhere between 65-75.
