The patcher will work by scanning the entire binary file and identifying 39 8E E3 EF and changing it automatically.
Well, it seems to be good plan (and it's working, thanks!), but for some reason it's not a solution for ratio 5:4 (or 4:3).
If I understand it well enough, value "39 8E E3 3F" in exe just means "my native ratio is 16:9". So, placing values exceeding ratio 16:9, we are making sure that exe supports it (that is in ordinary way - not so).
But, for example, 5:4 ratio (1280x1024) is already supported and not exceeding "native" 16:9. It means, that replacing sequence "39 8E E3 EF" with the value regarding 5:4 ("00 00 A0 3F") doesn't make big deal for exe because, well, its already included (with letterboxing, of course).
I think Jackfuste did changes not only in "39 8E E3 EF", but in something else. Or, maybe, Jackfuste did his magic with some tricky values, because when I replaced my exe with his - well - it's just works. Thank you.
