Baseline (Widescreen) Solution & Issues
Patch 1.0 only :
Racer_S has finished the FOV Tool for Stranglehold ...
Thank you to him and all that donated ...
First to get the resolution ...
I needed to add ... -ResX=3840 -ResY=1024 ... to the shortcut target line.
So that for me it reads ...
"C:\Program Files\Midway Games\Stranglehold\Binaries\Retail-Stranglehold.exe" -language=eng -ResX=3840 -ResY=1024
This green bit may not be necessary in widescreen as it may already do the widescreen resolutions.
Now start the FOV tool ... you can adjust the FOV values using the Numpad + and - keys ... as it says on the tool.
Suggested values for the FOV hack (leave the Width FOV at 1) :
0.65 for 16:9
0.63 for 16:10
1.09 for TripleHead 3840x1024
1.21 for TripleHead 5040x1050.
Leave the tool running and start the game.
Once in the game Press the * key on your Nubmer Pad to enable the FOV fix.
The game menu screens are horz+ without the FOV tool ... so with the fix enabled they will have a particularly wide FOV and are up-side-down.
To disable for the Menu screens if you want to ... Press the / key on the Number Pad.

For Hor+ gameplay in surround you need to use the FOV Tool made by Racer_S (see Attachment below). This tool does NOT work with patch 1.1.
