Even if it doesn't, players can download a program called Widescreen Fixer. You tell it your aspect ratio and press the ; button once you're in BF2; it adjusts FoV to the correct view.

So long as you use version 1.32, which has been submitted to and approved by EvenBalance (so pb won't kick you for using it), it's fine.

v1.32 available here:

Nah it seem doesn't cut it. In my case it would only change the FOV whist unscoped.

Mmm? You sure about that? Pretty sure that the FoV fix remains whilst scoped; it certainly does whilst using ironsights.

Quite sure. I tested it again with both ironsights and scopes. I used some in-game objects to check if the F.O.V was changing. I'm using v1.32 of the widescreen fixer.

Suprises me, it appeared to be adjusting the FoV when I was tinkering with it last night.

Either way at risk of skating on the thin ice of the NDA, I've used the grenade launcher textures from the video in-game and they worked fine on a 5:4 monitor. The marked ranges of 50, 100, 150 and 200m all worked fine, with no pre-practice I was able to sling rounds to within a meter or two of an attack marker.

Might work less well at 16:10's FoV, but it's certainly okay at 5:4. I'd like to be able to check it on a 16:10 but I can't at the moment.

Well here's the original texture that I made for 16:10. As you can see it is a fair bit bigger that the 5:4 one.

EDIT: The ice is probably breaking under my skates.

would it be possible to release a 16:10 reticle for people like me that use that aspect ratio or will it screw with pb if it is on the client side??

Dont ask them to hurry up, try to work someday in the BF2 editor, it is very hard and complicated. They do all this work in their free time and for free.

The profits made from that go towards server costs etc.

Wow! I would like to see some more new animations made by you, Chuc. Not to mention those sexy new models! Absolutely wonderful!

But the thing that really made my day wasn't the beutiful animations or models but the new PLA Type 07 camoflauge! At last the PLA gets some well-deserved loving. Now about that Type 99 MBT and JS 7.62mm sniper rifle... :wink:

That's a possibility, but they could have recorded the footage without sound being captured. ;)
