Widescreen Gaming Forum

Restarting the game or your computer will not change how it behaves.

It scans for the hotkey press every 1/10 a second. If you hold the hotkey down it will actually toggle the fix on/off/on/off/on/off/etc. I will try to restore the previous behavior where the hotkey would check if its pressed and held down, not just pressed.

HUD Left will say 0 if the fix is disabled because the left-side of the HUD is all the way to the left, which is 0.

The important this is that the HUD right is the horizontal width of the game resolution before you enable the fix.

Still running game and fixer. Nervous about shutting it down in case it does not start back up properly.

game running YES
fix enabled YES
aspect ratio 5.6
hud left 2064
hud right 3984
base address 0x400000

v. 1.5.387 sp
display count 3
detected resolution 6048 1080

Its workin but for how long? Wont know til I shut her down and restart the fixer and game again, and after spending so much time trying to get it to work, I am in no hurry to close it off. Guess I'll be playing COD MWW3 for the next while untl I finish it again.

I will keep you informed of my journey and how it progresses

CONTINUING....

Played COD MW3 for a couple of hours to let the fix sink in (sounds crazy but just me) Then I decided to load Call of Duty Black Ops, and the fix is still working :twothumb

We will slowly reload everything and see if it continues to work. Not sure what I did to make it work, but hey, I'll take it!

I uploaded r371. I made a small change to the Unmanaged.DetectDisplays libraries. If you were getting crashes before with these libraries, try this build and let me know if it still crashes.

Dopefish, I tried the r371 and still having the Unmanaged.DetectDisplays issue here. The last version that I was able to run, and am still able to run, is 2.3.59. (This is with COD MW3, Black Ops, WAW). All still work with this older version except for MW3. I personally don't think any of the v3x releases have worked (all have crashed right away). With all of the v3x releases, the program starts (no ui) with just the icon in the taskbar. It stays there for a few seconds. If I move the mouse over it the icon goes away. The event log shows:

Faulting application name: Widescreen Fixer.exe, version: 3.1.365.0, time stamp: 0x4f469b49
Faulting module name: Unmanaged.DetectDisplays64.dll, version: 2.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4f469b26
Exception code: 0x80000003
Fault offset: 0x0000000000013308
Faulting process id: 0x1284
Faulting application start time: 0x01ccf29659ca785a

Hope this will help. Thanks

Tealc,

Can you go to here and try each revision until you find one that doesn't crash?
http://www.widescreenfixer.org/old.php

Start from the newest revision and work your way back.

One thing to test is when Widescreen Fixer opens up, there's a hidden button in the lower-right corner of the main window that will pop up the detected information. Press that button in each revision to verify not only that it doesn't crash, but that it also shows valid information.

additional sidebar note: SWTOR WSF Enabled makes the hud and all bars disappear. But it doesn't crash WSF.
