Just checking in to thank racer_s, it really works great! I found the game pretty good so far, but now i enjoy it a lot more for some reason.

Switching off the hack makes the game feel downright claustrofobic again.

Don't suppose there's anything similar in terms of a fix for the xbox 360 is there?

This game makes me feel so sick :(

Hello,
First time poster here. For some reason whenever I hit numpad * to enable the fov settings it closes the game out instantly. I am using the latest version of the hack with what is listed as the recomended fov settings for 16:10 ratio I play at 1920x1200
Thanx for any help I have googled and everything looking at forums and see noone mentioning it.

Hello ...
Are you using vista ?
Is it the Steam version of the game ?

I don't mean to be disrespectful to NightRaven but his version of the tool will not fix the vert- aspect of the FOV as it only adjusts the horizontal.

Actually it should. Vertically it should display the same fov as a user on a 4:3 ratio screen (using a 1.0 factor). Then the horizontal fov is adjusted to fit the screen aspect ratio.
If you want to see more you can of course just use + (without worrying about the the aspect ratio).

See the following:
Default:


Fix with factor 1 (same V-FOV as 4:3, using a factor of 1.067 = V-FOV of a 5:4)


with factor 1.1:


and 1.4 ;)

I'm also using vista 32 and steam. Just dumps me back to desktop without a warning as soon as I press *

Tried launching without using steam and I get the same problem. I guess the version you download with steam doesn't like the hack :(

well could you please try my modded fix and see if that works? even if not it should not crash the game but might display an error in the "Fix" status filed if the memory patch location is not recognized, i.e. diff. version of executable.
