[quote][quote]could someone help me? when i use widescreenfixer for black ops the hud is centered and menus are look great but the game is still stretched. did i put something wrong? i used 3x 16:10 for settings. hayden's fix works for me but the hud isnt centered

Interesting. Is Steam the only way to use Black Ops? What country are you in? Could you send me your .exe files? Does it not work for both SP and MP?


havent tried sp only mp. what exe files do you need? you can pm me an address to mail it to. currently the only way i made it work properly is to use haydens to load it up and yours to get the hud to the middle. im in canada.

Edit: dont know if this affects anything but my game was activated way way too early i think.. i somehow was able to play the game when it said 18hrs left on steam

Can you try telling steam to validate your files and see if it replaces any of them?

If not, you can zip up the two exe files and upload them here:

Thanks.

uhm i dont really get how the widescreen fixer works...or im expecting too much. at the main tab i put in ratio of my monitor.
so, does it matter what i've set the in-game option to?
and the greyed out numbers on main tab, what do they mean?

what i really wanted to do is up the fov in cod:bo ...is that possible? i mean, the fix is nice, fov is a little higher with it, but i would like to have an even higher fov (im used to values from 90 to 120, depending on game and calculation method)

edit: im on a single monitor, 16:9 ratio btw

Hmm, was working fine this morning but I think they patched Black Ops and now the widescreen fixer isn't working again. When I enable it, I lose all menu and HUD elements. You can't even exit the game properly and have kill it in task manager.

Or is it just me?

Yes, the patch today seemed to screw up the Fixer. We'll have to wait for the nice guy Dopefish to make an update I believe.

Yes, the game was patched a few hours ago and the current version of WSF will no longer work properly. All HUD elements or Menu options will disappear.

Sit tight and wait for an update. :onethumb

(Any posts after this - please don't just post "it isn't working". We know! Be patient :) )

SP fix was great - thanks so much for fixing the annoying text stretching. Playing the campaign across three monitors is just something to behold.

I sure wish I could find a strait answer if this could, or could not get you VAC banned. There are so many thoughts on the matter out there. all the different thoughts on it has me kind of paranoid now. Valves description of what gets you banned is so vague and open for interpretation. what I would like is some of these folks that say they know someone who has been banned using the WSF. to point out there source.

I just released some updates:

[list]
[*][Game.Call of Duty Black Ops MP] Fixed position of misc. items in Black Ops MP.[/*:m]
[*][Game.Call of Duty Black Ops SP] Fixed position of misc. items and videos in Black Ops SP.[/*:m]
[*][Game.Call of Duty 4 SP] Fixed a bug with Call of Duty 4 that would make it show updates twice.[/*:m]
[*][Game.Wolfenstein] Added in Steam detection of Wolfenstein.[/*:m][/list:u]

More items should be centered in Black Ops now, including videos in SP.

A note about the videos, though. They are 16:9. If you use 3x16:10, the video will go over to the side monitors. I'll see what I can do about this later.

AFAIK, no one has ever been banned using this on MW2. I used it for months, and I've been using it now on Black Ops since its release. There's always the chance it could (incorrectly) be seen as a cheat at some point though. :?
