Ultimate fix for the cursor problems + widescreen support

[fgsfds]

I ripped fixed exe from the GOG version. I hope they don't mind.
Also included dx8 to 9 wrapper for a proper VSync support

Just unpack this .zip into the game folder:

There's also a universal (ultra)widescreen fix by me.
Unpack it to the game folder as well, no further tweaking is required.

Alternatively, use Steam Superheater. It can install these fixes automatically.

Finally, that was easy fix. I tired to find any solves around the forums and didn't help. This is actually works as WIndow 8.1.

Thanks you so much!

Thanks for this fix it definitely works with the mouse thing on my windows 7 64 bit now, before he would just keep walking towards the dark area infinitely.

However is there a reason why the sound is muted after applying this patch ? i thought i lost the sound but i could definitely have accidentally hit the no sound configuration. Just in case anyone get confused of the lack of sound go into audio options and select something else than no sound, i just chose 3d emulation from the realtek onboard thingy.

Nice! This fixed the cursor for me! Thanks a bunch! I'll let you guys know if I run into any other issues.

A brilliant idea. Thank you very much! First time this game has worked right for me, since the year it came out

Can some of you confirm about this fix working with windows 10 and does the game run easily and well on W10 ?

Im currently 2 missions into the game and i feel like im forced to complete it before the 29th juli this year, since thats the deadline for the free windowws 10 upgrade. Im currently on Windows 7-64 bit.

I would rather just uninstall it and wait for the upgrade if it runs without problems on W10

Perfect on Windows 10, thanks! Now I need to track down and try all the mods I have saved. Still have the boxed version of this amazing game :)

[monrocito]

Also, if you have a problem enabling vsync even if it's forced in the drivers, unpack contents of "vsync" folder into the game directory.

I would love it if you would please spell out the directions for a player who really wants to play but is really, really bad with downloading stuff and... stuff...

tbh, if you're still having problems with it, you're probably better off just refunding it and then buying it here https://www.gog.com/game/freedom_force - This has all the fixes already included

This worked for me, hallelujah.
