Thanks ,great idea for the game.

Would prefer a zip/rar file but after reading your description
i see why you've done it as an installer.

You're welcome! Let me know if there's any issues :)

Yea I understand. I'm like that myself, but advanced users can unzip it and install it manually if they want. But instructions on how to install the letterboxing package properly is what prompted the installer in the first place. It seemed hard to explain, so I ended up with an installer.

Ah ,cool ,nice to know.

What about ultrawide ?
Someone mentioned it on another forum so i thought i'd inquire .

I don't have an ultrawide screen myself but some do.

Hey, just noticed this as I was finishing an article.

This is ultra-wide. Supports from 4:3 up to 48:9 and that would be equivalent to three (16:9) 1440p monitors next to each other.

I'd very open to working directly directly with ultrawide gamers. Hopefully with aspect ratios and resolutions different from my own. I'm committed to ensuring it works properly for them.

Technical support should be in private message, or on Discord. (I don't get a notice if someone posts a new post here, only if they respond to something I wrote)

I hope that helps!

Just did some more testing and you did put quite a work on the hud!
Must have taken a lot. Didn't find any errors.

I really appreciate that you preserved the natural look of the game while fixing the aspect ratio issues.

Impressive work!

Wow, now this is not only a (Ultra?)Widescreen mod, but it's been merged with the essential AI and Water relection fixes, everything you need bundled in 1 package!! Thank you for making the vanilla experience so easily available for everyone on modern setups, amazing job!!!

Thank you :) I had not seen your message because I took a break from FarCry. I'm back now and work is resuming.
