    Widescreen issues

    I made some earlier post about text distortion in-game. I think I may have found the problem. I am currently playing on a widescreen laptop. Since I believe in-game text is an image, the widescreen may be the reason the text cannot display correctly. Does anyone agree and is there any way to fix this?

    Text isn't an image per-say. Otherwise your graphics card would have to render each letter as an image, and that would take up more GPU time. What is most likely happening is your image is being distorted by the widescreen (hopefully there will be a fix for this 1.03) resolution. As of right now, I'm not sure how to fix this. You can try forcing a resolution but that will most likely stretch the game as well.

      Is there a reason why the resolution only effects the text?

        What resolution does your widescreen support? If you want to run BF2 with proper widescreen you have to right click on the BF2 shortcut -> properties -> Target and add these: +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 768. Replace the numbers 1280 x 768 with whatever your widescreen supports. The complete line should then be something like: "C:\Program Files\EA Games\Battlefield 2\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 768.

        When you go into the game with these settings the resolution will not show in video properties but I have tested it and it works.
