I'm preparing to remove the BETA reference to Widescreen Fixer and make it a regular release.
There are a few features I'd like to implement first and I need some input. I will also be listing some things that will and will not be fixed upon release, and some future fixes I have planned.
Input needed:
I am going to add support for specifying your own aspect-ratio or resolution. How will this work with bezel management? I have yet to use any form of bezel management solutions from ATI or NVIDIA. Should I only include the ability to set your own resolution? Should I include an option for custom aspect-ratios? The main thing I'm concerned about is how bezel management is handled. If all you do is set up the bezel management in the control panel, and it gives you a resolution, then you should just need to input that resolution. I only have TH2Go (thanks again, Mach1.9pants) and have no bezel management solutions, so I have no idea what users need out of Widescreen Fixer in that regard. (Redundant sentence much?)
Items fixed/added/changed upon release:
[list]
[*]Version numbers now
update automatically based on SVN revision and build number.[/*:m]
[*]The hotkey now works as a hotkey should. You press it once and it works instantly without toggling on/off a thousand times per second. :)[/*:m]
[*]Update checking will be disabled until I can implement a better solution.[/*:m]
[*]An optional installer using
WIX (
There's a slim chance this won't be ready upon release. It depends on how anxious I get to release the app early.)[/*:m][/list:u]
Items needing fixed/added/changed after release:
[list]
[*]Remote updating of version.xml.[/*:m]
[*]Better update system. It should let you know there's an update, and if you choose to update, it will automatically download it and replace the file before the actual application loads.[/*:m]
[*]Include a description for modules describing what exactly the fix does for that particular game, as well as other vital information.[/*:m]
[*]Add in better error handling.[/*:m][/list:u]
There are more things I have on my todo list but these are at the top of the list.
I also hope to get a better web design for the site up, as well as a new icon for Widescreen Fixer.
Any input, thoughts, comments, criticisms, etc. are appreciated.
