Widescreen Fix?

[Violet Maniac]

I use a 2560 x 1080 monitor to play games and I realized that my resolution causes most things on the hud to get cut off to the point where I can't read them at all. So I tried looking for a fix but got nowhere, so I was wondering if anyone here knew if there was a way to fix it.

This issue has been raised several times over the years, with no fixes being mentioned in any of the threads.

This is indeed the solution, thank you so much!

It's crazy that the devs don't make a simple patch for this, considering how few bits of code need flipping.

I tried the hex editor fix but my attempt left will prevent the exe from working.

I uploaded a hex edited version of the ghost.exe to my google drive.

Just download and overwrite the ghost.exe in games directory and it should work.

Tried the provided widescreen fix ghost.exe but I'm getting crashes when loading. Main menu works OK, it crashes immediately after any savegame loads up. Thanks for trying to help though what the menus look like for me: https://i.imgur.com/kKykbfo.png

Also tried the flawless widescreen application menu fix but it didn't help the menu cutoff.

This seems like it could be a really fun game but I don't understand why so many games have so much trouble with just setting a UI X by X it's simple algebra we all learned in 7th grade. I get it ..... at the time the game was released maybe 5120x1440 was not a popular resolution. But please. stop making menus based on a resolution. edit: good job on the rest of it!!!!!
