Hi guys - have written a app to fix FOV/Zoom and move the helmet position - it was written on windows 7 64bit, have not tested it on any other machines so milage may vary (deffinatly let me know), see screenshots below.... the fix also effects the cutscenes as well as you can see in the video down the bottom ....

Original View:


Examples of modified FOV and Helmet location:

Hey guys ... HaYDeN and joker0222 ... welcome to the forum ... :D

@ HaYDeN
Great work on your FOV fix ... :twothumb
I don't have the game yet so I can't test it but it does look good ... :mrgreen:

Does the addressing need to be shown ?
I imagine it will confuse many people ... most would only need the FOV and the Helmet value fields ... no ?

Anyway ... cool stuff ... 8)

also ...
It looks like they fixed the FOV ... see this post by SiRkIt ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=64&t=18382&p=184028#p184028
But I like your helmet positioning ability ... :D


::TrueWS


@ joker0222 ...
Why not try HaYDeN's fix ?

I posted my question before HaYDeN.

But i had to wait for approval by mod. :wink:


EDIT: I tested it, but it don´t work for me.
i can start it, and it finds BS2.





but i can´t make any change.

i start the game, then Alt+Tab and start the fix.
Back to the game, pressing * and then 0 on Numpad for FOV.
But nothing happens, when i press + or - on Numpad
Numlock is on.

Same with helmet adjustments.
I have Win 7 64 bit.

@joker - did you try the latest version? [Update to support 1.001 - http://www.mediafire.com/?qgwzmtznzne]

is this the retail version or steam out of interest? 1.000 or 1.001 [check the EXE properties to find out]

Ehh? I still don't follow your logic. By looking at the post patch image, it looks like 16:10 will get the most viewable picture as that is the biggest box in the picture. If not, then I think that representation on the picture was made illogically.


You quoted my post but missed the part where I said "(The text is also backwards for 16:10 and 16:9)"

They simply labeled them backwards.


Those pictures on the bioshock website dont make any sense. 16:9 vs 16:10 shouldnt allow you to see more the horizontally, only vertically, yet in their picture, 16:10 has more horizontal viewable area but the same vertical height practically as 16:9. Whats goin on? 2k doesnt seem to know anything about widescreen :hide


It's all right. The pre-patch images are accurate and the post-patch images are correct. The only problem is that they mixed up the label for 16:10 and 16:9. 16:9 is wider than 16:10.


Dopefish the 16:9 screenshot they used for that example is obviously prepatch. 16:9 could get wider depending on how they implement it, which is largely up to the soul programmer that has it assigned to him.


It's just what I said.


--


The patch is out and it's exactly what I said. :)

If you used 16:9 before, there is absolutely no difference post-patch.

If you used 16:10 or 4:3 before, you now see less.

i Have the retail version.
now, i tested the updated version. but no change in the end.
i play version 1.0 of the game because i have some problems with the patch

if i try your updated tool and choose 1.000, nothing happens and the values for FOV and Helmet doesn´t change.
if i choose version 1.001 i can change the values in the gui of the tool with +/-, but there is no effect in the game.

my native resolution is 1440x900

Strange, the only other thing I can think of is something changing the module base or some other influence, does your hardware support and run in DX10? anything that changes/influences the memory addressing will break it.
