Hi all
Before anything else I'd like to thank everyone who has helped with the various FOV fixes here! This is amazing work you guys, I really respect you taking care of Ubisoft's mess again and again and thereby making the game playable for everyone using 21:9 and upwards! Finding this thread gave me hope and made me give the game a try.
Unfortunately, I'm too late to the party and they broke it again. While it would be practical if someone made a new fix for us, I prefer the "teach a man to fish" approach, especially considering the short expected lifespan these fixes have here... thanks for that, Ubi
. So here is my request:
Could someone with the expertise (maybe jackfuste or czarman or anyone else willing) please explain how they figure out what needs to be changed after the game gets patched?
I've used CE before (I think I went through the tutorial up to step 8 (multilevel pointers)), I'm moderately experienced with programming (albeit only high-level languages) and am familiar with computer logic. I am willing to invest a couple hours to learn what I'm lacking, if it means I can get the CE trainer to work, or, what seems easier at first glance, understand
how to find what needs to be changed in the FC64.dll.
I already tried editing the new dll as suggested by czarman, I found 2 matches for
47 23 01 E8, neither at the old offset, and neither managed to unlock the FOV slider (tried changing them individually and simultaneously). None of the trainers I found work any more either, and unfortunately that's as far as I got on my own. I'm sure I'd be able to dig deeper if you guys could give me some pointers, right now I just don't really know what to look for.
So yeah, hope you experts see this, any help would be greatly appreciated!
