I've had the game since its release but I avoided playing it or trying anything, hoping for the devs to release an update. It's only today that I decided to disassemble the exe and look into it. Took me about 5 to 10 minutes to remove the pillarboxing.

Download the modified exe here, put it in WorldWarZ\en_us\client\bin\pc\ and overwrite.

Edit: Updated the main link to the April 20 hotfix .exe version just in case. The original modded exe still works.


Thank you so much Man, works perfectly! Awesome stuff, now if they could only add a FOV slider then the game would be perfect :rockout:

Some screens 5760x1080 multi screen 3x :

Makes no sense why the team locked it on purpose seems insane like usual, anyways massive thanks Rose :cheers: really appreciate it!

[ Update ] I also updated the game to the April 20 hotfix and the new fix works perfectly as well, so 100% do that if you have the game they fixed a bunch of stuff in the patch don't use the old build.

About the FOV there is a fix posted on this page by l0wb1t

http://fearlessrevolution.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=9243

I created a table with only this script and uploaded it, in case you find it easier (you need to install Cheat Engine 6.x first)
https://www.mediafire.com/file/0zirrb3p ... od.ct/file

Like i said i didn't write this script l0wb1t did, so thanks him if you want to, not me.

Thanks. It works online as well, although it might become bannable if the devs decide to start cracking down on the abundance of people that use other hacks to gain an unfair advantage. Keith of PCGamingWiki also uploaded the CT there.

Using the modified exe breaks online. Am I the only one?

Are you sure it's the latest exe, not one you might have had from before?

I can confirm online mode is not connecting anymore after modifying latest executable with your patcher. :thumbdown:
Widescreen without black bars works fine though, but only offline:(

wwzRetailEgs.exe file version: 0.1.0.13120
md5 prior patch: 0A669A62FFFC13CDEBAF97A0EED23DF0
md5 after patch: 71A6BBFA148E53BA6B6CCE0D0ECB60F8

**edit**
found the issue
Never launch the exe directly, always start the game via Epic Launcher, then you'll be fine & online even with latest uws pached one :rockout:

Cheers,
Nord

In my experience (also from Metro Exodus) you will indeed have to launch the game through the Epic Launcher, but only once after every patch. After that one time, I can successfully launch the game through the .exe (this was for Metro Exodus though, I always use the shortcut that got placed on my desktop for WWZ, not the .exe directly).

Alternatively, try out this patcher that may also work with future game versions - no guarantees:
