in fact i removed the entire profile. It seems that in-game the models of the game (weapons/car,buildings, so all the graphisms...) are not stretched but the HUD (weapon bar, mini map, life bar,...) is stretched!! And the resolution seems to be really in 1680*1050. Does the HUD is stretched for you too? (excuse my bad english , i'm french :wink: ) |

I have a question: I can get widescreen to work fine by appending the info to the executable for BF2. This also works in Special Forces. But, when I launch BF2 (as opposed to Special Forces) and then decide to play a Special Forces map, the widescreen option does not work and it reverts back to stretching the resolution. This also happens if I launch Special Forces and then decide to load a non-Special Forces map. It is annoying because I have to restart the game using either executable to get the widescreen to work. Anyone know what is causing this and if it is fixable? Thanks |

Hi newbie to widescreen here. Just ordered samsung 215tw 21inch 1680x1050 arrivng 2mrw (thurs), previously been playing on 17inch lg l1710b. I've read the stuff about editing the command line to get to run at 1680x1050, and that bf2 just crops the top/bottom off the image etc etc. But since i've previously played at 1280x1024 will i be "gaining view" if I play at 1680x1050 with my new monitor ie the extra width - or will it just stretch the same image i had at 1280x1024 and I still lose some of the screen top and bottom? if so is it better to play still at 1280x1024 with black bars? Also i read in this thread that BF2 is designed for 4:3 aspect........ does that mean that i will be able to play in 1400x1050 (ie 4:3) on my new monitor with black bars - (which would look nicer than 1280x1024 that i've been used to) does BF2 support offically 1400x1050 as a resolution? any help would be greatly appreciated |

slickric21 ... Welcome to the WSGF ... 8) ... But since i've previously played at 1280x1024 will i be "gaining view" if I play at 1680x1050 with my new monitor ie the extra width With any widescreen res you will not be gaining view of any sort in fact you will be loosing view from the top and bottom. (the width stays the same) If you play with any 4:3 res you will be able to play it stretched to fit or with black bars without loosing any view. Here are 3 comparison shots ... click em ... 4:3 http://www.paddywak.co.uk/Screenshots/display.php?picref=BF2/BF2%20-%201.jpg 16:10 http://www.paddywak.co.uk/Screenshots/display.php?picref=BF2/BF2%20-%202.jpg 4:3 stretched to fit 16:10 http://www.paddywak.co.uk/Screenshots/display.php?picref=BF2/BF2%20-%203.jpg If you play on non Punkbuster servers there is a new tool to alter the FOV adding view to the sides and not cutting the top and bottom off ... ... :D ... Find more info and get the tool in this thread ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/6535t=0 |
