Widescreen Gaming Forum

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

well...i have it...and i have 2 tell u...it is great!!!...i use 1440x900 resolution

you say its great ?... I belive you but what about aspect ratio and stretching ?
can you post a screen ?

tell you the truth it is a native widescreen game... it runs smoothly in 1680x1050 set up in game options...

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.

I will appreciate this

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:

thank you once again

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:
