75 isn't that odd, really. :) Halo uses an FOV of 68, and Deus Ex 2 used (pre 1.2 patch) an FOV of 80, before they lowered it to shift the HUD further out... I think it's 69 or something, now... Oh, and thanks for pointing out the FOV. :D |

I tried changing the fov and anything but 75 makes the screen look strange. Anyways, finally finished the game. Was a pretty good experience with the exception of MANY MANY HORRIBLE GAME STOPPING BUGS (which I had to cheat to get past). |

I've not encountered any bugs that meant I couldn't get further, yet. Although, admittedly, I'm only about half way through. :D The only thing that really gets on my nerves is the occasional jerk in the gameplay: it'll be smooth as anything, but when you engage in coversation, it suddenly jerks and judders. Very confusing. I think they lied a bit about the min specs, though: I've got a log, and Bloodlines chewed up 970-odd out of an available 1024MB of RAM, and all of a 2GB pagefile. I'd really hate to play this game on the 'min spec'... 384MB RAM? :shock: I'm wincing just thinking about it. ;) Also, I think this game was honestly one of the more scary ones I've played. Doom 3 was just dark, it wasn't scary. Well, not after the first zombie dude, anyway... ;) Heh... this was my 500th post. :D |

i looked through all the console commands and didnt see anything resembling heightwidth settings... does anyone know how to change res? the registry really doesnt seem to matter if i change it. |

I'm guessing the res's are coded into the .exe, then. Much like NFS:U and NFS:U2. :( How can one game using an engine have so many WS options, and yet another out at almost the same time (Bloodlines and Half-Life 2 both use the Source Engine, if anyone didn't know that by now... ;) ) can't... :? |

any chance of someone doing an .exe hack for this? even 640x480 would be nice. As it is, I get a tiny 4:3 image with redblue .convergence issues |

Well it is too bad it doesn't support widescreen (how hard could it have been), but thanks to this thread i am happy with 1600x1200 stretched to a 16:10 display using only fov of 95. I couldn't get the anamorph var to look right. A little bit of tunnel vision but much better than default stretch. As far as the red/blue convergence issue, are you sure that is not intentional. I see that effect whenever i am looking at text on a computer screen within the game (like a computer i am hacking within the game). I thought that was just to add realism or something. Is the only time you see that effect when you use the pc's within the game? |

no...this is common on any game that i run that isnt 640x480 or a widescreen res (856x480, etc). so, since this games resolutions are so limited, i cant use the ones i need to get rid of the problem. the only solution i found was to use -windowed option on the command line when starting the game... then i could have a window almost same size as the screen but its chopped a bit on the sides and bottom and the window is sized by the resolution chosen in-game. so again, its not ideal but at least better than looking at everything like it needs 3-d goggles to look right. hope someone hacks the exe to allow custom res. :) |

If it looks like you need 3D goggles, maybe 'stereo' video has been turned on somewhere? 'Cause I can't honestly think of a reason why there should be that sort of thing happening... :? |
