I did my tests, as well.

This game is now hor+ in-game. :)

The shots were taken in the exact same place.

All menus and everything else are still stretched, but the game itself now uses the proper FOV.

Thanks folks for giving the beta a test drive. From what we got thus far, hor+ is good news. The interface is a minor annoyance but it's good to hear that we are no longer penalized for having a widescreen display. It's too bad this little thing can't be backported over to BF2.

One more thing... can you guys test the sniper rifle unlock to see if they filled in the sides when using zoom mode? I could have sworn that the side weren't filled when using that rifle.

Pity that to activate support that you need to modify the shortcut. At least it's better than having to deal with the pathetic +szy and +szx args workaround.

I think you still have to modify the shortcut with the +szx and +szy, but that the +fullscreen1 command changes to +widescreen1

No, all you need is +fullscreen 1 or 0 (if you want to run it in windowed mode or not), and +widescreen 1

Setting +widescreen 1 will show all the widescreen resolutions in game.

Sorry, didn't know.

But you don't need fullscreen 1 or 0 in the shortcut. If that's exempt it will run in fullscreen by default (or at least that's what my system shows).

Really doubt it, I think it's only a BF2142 patch.

1.50 Patch for 2142 is out with "Widescreen" support. Perhaps a regrade is in order?
