Thank you, I will do the same if I get it.

So sorry for the late response!!

Well the aspect ratio for that resolution should be 7.166666667.

In binary32 float you should get 111.001010101010101010101 with 7 being 0111 in binary and our fractional value being 001010101010101010101.

Move the decimal over and we find that the exponent is 2 and the fully formulated significand is 11001010101010101010101 in raw binary. Bias your exponent (2+((2^8)-1)=129) and you have 10000001.

Your raw binary should be 0 10000001 11001010101010101010101 (spaces for readability).

In hex, that is literally 40 E5 55 55 so reversed, your actual value should be 55 55 E5 40

So, Tontondavid, it looks like your math is good. As to why it's not working in practice, I'm really not sure. Obvious question but, are you using any bezel correction you might not have accounted for?

I'm having issues with the fix, and could use some help:

I copy and paste jackfuste's modified file for 48:9 into the game folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\MGS_TPP) when I run the game, the aspect ratio is perfect, but it looks like the game is at a lower resolution-graphics look fuzzy...

I tried switching to Fullscreen in the in game menu, but the aspect ratio is stretched 3 times more than it should be if that makes sense.

What am I doing wrong here?

I played for hours with it last night before posting it. After updating to 1.0.0.6 beta did you patch mgsvtpp.exe for your aspect ratio?

You wrote "the 005 widescreen fix is working fine with the 006 beta" in a previous post which makes me think you copied Jackfuste's 1.0.0.5 exe back in after updating to 1.0.0.6 beta.

Pretty much the only thing changing from version to version is the exe. If you put the 1.0.0.5 exe back in after opting in to the beta then you just downgraded the game. You will have to manually patch 1.0.0.6 exe for your aspect ratio (tutorial -> http://www.wsgf.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=160680#p160680, or wait for 1.0.0.6 to officially be released and Jackfuste to upload new patched exe's) then you can use the cheat table I uploaded. Basically if using the 1.0.0.6 cheat table on 1.0.0.5 exe it will patch the wrong parts in memory and probably crash like you are seeing.

Thanks for your reply! Don't apologize please, you are helping a lot of people here. I was able to finally figure it out. It is really dumb but it may help others:

What happened is that I indeed modified it correctly, however, in addition of selecting full screen, you must ALSO change the resolution! I was under the impression that once you patched the game, you could not change the resolution inside the game because when I first tried it, I did not select full screen, so I could NOT change the resolution and thought it was "hard coded" by the patch.
BUT, once I switched to full screen, I was able to change it to my bezel corrected resolution and BAM, it works beautifully now.
I now have to figure out how to fix the markers.

Hopefully this helps someone else.
Cheers.

I have been trying to see how to fix the marker using the cheat table but it's way beyond me. Can someone explain quickly what needs to be done?

I have installed cheat engine. I did some of the tutorial and tried to find where to make the changes but couldn't.

Seems like 1.0.0.6 has been released.
Would someone be able to publish the EXE + marker and I'll gladly donate.

The 1.005 fix for 21:9 still works for me. Try replacing the 1.006 .exe with the modded 1.005 .exe and let us know if that worked for you as well.

Donate to wsgf.org/jackfuste if it works.

Additionally, thanks jackfuste and ekrboi for providing a tutorial and example on fixing this ourselves. I'm sure jackfuste can take it from here when he get's back online for all the other aspect ratios that still need a fix.

First of all, thanks for the 1.06 fix! I just tried using the marker fix, and I got an image like the one attached! The marker fix works, but the edges of the scope don't reach the edge of the screen. Using the 21x9 3440x1440 Steam version!
