So is this the current only FOV fix?

Set your Windows Desktop to a 4:3 res.


Does it actually work?

No ... currently there is no way to gain horizontal FOV.
At best all that will do is add to the vertical FOV.
It takes the aspect ratio from your desktop but it does not add to the horizontal FOV no matter what you do.
Horz+ would be needed to fix the FOV in widescreen.

Not to side track us... but i can't believe the thread was closed in the official ubi forums? Thread bumping? The guy that it was blamed on didn't even do anything offensive...

Anyway enough ubi forum rubbish, just had to get it out of my system.

I just had to register so I could say: Thanks for the fix Racer_S! WGF never lets me down.

I can't try it out right now (at work) but I will as soon as I get home. Anyone have suggestions for 16:9 FOV numbers to use?

Thanks! Awesome work, just a few questions

Does it have to be running in the background?

Do I have to set it before each play session?
