Widescreen mod/patch

[Monika's_BFFEx0255]

I don't know if it's possible to do this but is there a way to implement higher resolution options than 1280 x 724? It's not a huge problem for me, but I know of quite a few other older games that have been patched with widescreen mods and I was wondering if the same could be implemented into MS:C.

Cant we already set the game on widescreen in the options? or its doesnt work properly?

What FER said... there's widescreen option in the video options for half life. (which also shows up to ms:c since it's a mod)

In case ya hadn't noticed, all my screen shots are wide screen - true of a some other folks as well...

If your widescreen resolutions aren't showing up in the drop down, once you've set to wide screen, it maybe your monitor isn't detecting right. You can try to add forced custom resolutions through your video drivers.

On nVidia's that'd be ControlPanel->NVControl Panel->Change Resolution->Customize... (Leave Scan Type "Progressive" and Timing "Automatic".) Not sure, off hand, where that'd be on ATI/AMD, but something similar.

Well this is embarassing...

I think the problem is with my monitor because it didn't show up correctly so I'll follow your nvidia solution.

Sorry to waste your time.

Only pro's play on 800x600, windowed of course. Because I like to squint when I play.

Don't forget about the FoV command if you're playing in widescreen resolutions.
default_fov 102 in the console, for example. (That's the fov I use in most games at 1920x1080. Some games seem a little more fisheeye for some reason though).
