[REL]WideScreen Mod: First Beta Release (Jan 21, 2009)

[Rubini]

Here. Look that the tga dials are yet streched. See about in the first post. What is already done is all 3D views. Now we need to finish working on the tgas/tdc, intro, etc. Notice the pics before and after the mod:

It sounds very interesting. Can this idea be used for hires playing, not only on widescreen? I use hires patch now for playing 1280x1024 resolution on 19" LCD, but it makes circles oval (ratio 4:3, should be 5:4)?

Hi Jaxa,

Yes, it works with any wide screen 16x9 resolution! Stock or using high resolution mod. It´s also possible configurate it to others aspects...but I guess that the 16x9 is most common one, no?

In time...do you had time to try that SMission?

Sounds very good but I use my own combo of GWX 1.03, and many single mods, since the menu_1024 ini file is different for each super mod will you be releasing the details so we can mod our own versions?
Thanks.
Edit: Would it be possible just to use a search & replace or maybe easier to edit the guage images, deliberately adjust out of scale?

Now this is a gem! Must have.

Hi mate!
Do you know a good TGA man? Will be need to adjust all static (intros) TGAs, UZO/Periscopes/Binocular, nav map and others masks and finally the non 3d dials, pointers, etc. Please someone!

Reece, I just ried to adjust the uzo view and it´s button until now. But ye will be possible make a search, copy and paste on the non 3d gauges and scales...i myself also have a heavy modded menu_1024, so I also needed to work on mine.

My idea is make a basic one for GWX 3.0 for example, then we will learn all the tricks and then will be more easy to adjust any other non 3D gauges.

We need a good menu_1024 man... Someone?:hmm:
