guys I need help. I'm about to buy widescreen lcd display but my decision is conditioned with Heroes V game. If this game had a native and true widescreen support with correct aspect ratio I wouldn't hesitate but unfortunately I recieve contradictory reports about the subject.
I know that on this forum you've listed game as 'stretched' but I've asked a question on nival forum and I really don't know what to think of it ? Look at this link: http://forums.nival.com/eng/showthread.php?t=29121

Is any one of you widescreen gamers have correct aspect ratio in this game (H+) ? please let me know

thanks in advance

HOMMV has native WS support, if you can select the resolution in windows you can select it in game.
I run the game @ 1920x1200 smoothly and doesnt look streched or anything to me.
When i get on my homecomputer tonight i can post some 1920x1200 screenshots.

As promised some random screenshots
These are all @ 1920x1200 and every graphics option set to max
Just some screenshots during the opening campaign, if you want some specific screenshots let me know and maybe I can fix something :)

thank you very much MisMatch, I'am obliged.

Unfortunately your screenshots shows that game is stretched in wide resolutions. I didn't want to believe it but now I see.

in this topic you can see screenshots with correct aspect ratio:

If you’re not satisfied with the aspect ratio you can always select a 4:3 resolution and let your videocard handle the scaling.
Personally I think 1920x1200 looks good enough to play with it

I was thinking of checking out this title myself.

Thanks for posting those pics. Hm. Looking at it, i'm not sure that I would be bothered by the stretching myself, but it is definitely something to consider. Are you a purist, or do you mind a little stretch? :wink:
