Even if it doesn't, players can download a program called Widescreen Fixer. You tell it your aspect ratio and press the ; button once you're in BF2; it adjusts FoV to the correct view.

So long as you use version 1.32, which has been submitted to and approved by EvenBalance (so pb won't kick you for using it), it's fine.

v1.32 available here:

Nah it seem doesn't cut it. In my case it would only change the FOV whist unscoped.

Mmm? You sure about that? Pretty sure that the FoV fix remains whilst scoped; it certainly does whilst using ironsights.

Quite sure. I tested it again with both ironsights and scopes. I used some in-game objects to check if the F.O.V was changing. I'm using v1.32 of the widescreen fixer.

Suprises me, it appeared to be adjusting the FoV when I was tinkering with it last night.

Either way at risk of skating on the thin ice of the NDA, I've used the grenade launcher textures from the video in-game and they worked fine on a 5:4 monitor. The marked ranges of 50, 100, 150 and 200m all worked fine, with no pre-practice I was able to sling rounds to within a meter or two of an attack marker.

Might work less well at 16:10's FoV, but it's certainly okay at 5:4. I'd like to be able to check it on a 16:10 but I can't at the moment.

Well here's the original texture that I made for 16:10. As you can see it is a fair bit bigger that the 5:4 one.

EDIT: The ice is probably breaking under my skates.

oh cool! A widescreen fixer! Gotta try that one out this afternoon!

Hitperson · 07-14-2008, 07:28 AM

would it be possible to release a 16:10 reticle for people like me that use that aspect ratio or will it screw with pb if it is on the client side??

Finally some respect for us Grenadiers.
