Perhaps you need to search for your .cfg file in your United Offensive directory. I have yet to install United Offensive. I am still too busy playing the first CoD. When I install UO, I will make sure to follow up with the details here.

Try to look in your United Offensive folder for that default .cfg file, though.

i've tried this but it doesn't seem to work or i'm doing something wrong.

i also have a dell 2005fpw, so i should be able to use the same settings as UrbanSmooth smooth gave, but after editing the .cfg file and when I start cod i get a blank black screen and nothing happens.

i have it hocked up to a ati x300 graphics card.

would it be possible for someone to post up a link where it might be possible to download the cfg file, as playing in a window sucks.


regards,

luke

Just click through the black screens. They are the start up screens. There should be three of them. After that, you should be able to get to your main menu. If not, explain your situation in more detail, please.

Ok, I got United Offensive single player to work! All you do is go to your Call of Duty directory, open the 'uo' directory, and open your 'uoconfig' configuration file. Search for and make these settings like so:

seta cg_fov "106.63912823033217994834067183241"
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customheight "1050"
seta r_customwidth "1680"

Save your changes. Open United Offensive, and the first three intro movies should be blank. Click through them. If you change your graphics, audio, or performance settings in United Offensive, make sure you Apply Changes, close United Offensive, open the config file, and change your custom settings back to your desired fov, height, width, save the settings, and open United Offensive again. It should work!

That would be for a 1680 x 1050 resolution (Dell 2005FPW). If you want to use a different resolution, make sure to change the fov according to the formula at the top of the thread.

Take it easy, pal, take it easy! Just follow my directions step by step, and it should work out for you.

I dont have the fov line in my .cfg. Ive searched, and its not there. 1920x1200 doesnt seem to work either, even though Ive changed it. And yes, I did put -1 too.

If the fov line's not there, use 80 as the default fov, or fov1 in your equation, and add the new fov line, the fov that you come up with, using the equation at the beginning of this thread, to your .cfg file.

Do this:
Open Call of Duty single player, of Call of Duty: United Offensive single player. Go to your main menu, and change all the settings that you want. Apply changes, and exit the game. Open your .cfg file and make the necesaary changes for fov and custom widescreen resolution. Save your .cfg file! Open CoD sp again, and it should work.

Remember, you may have to click through three blank screens. That usually means it's working.

The FOV line is still not there. What is annoying is that this has worked in the past, when I played it last. 1920x1200 doesn seem to be working either, it loads up 800x600, and is that when I tried the game.

edit, I used textpad, and the fov line was there. Changed it, and its now working. Is your fov number the same for 1920x1200?
