Ultra widescreen Fix 21:9

By Ghazzgul

First go read this "Dawn of War Widescreen Fix
By Ricyn" Guide

before reading this

I have found how to make it work for 21:9 screens

i followed the guide above with some changes to it

and HEX values for 21:9 i found here
http://www.wsgf.org/article/common-hex-values

screenheight=1080 made into 1080
screenwidth=1920 made into 2560

W40k.exe = MUST stay ABAAAA3F Or it will look Waird
Platform.dll = 26 B4 17 40
spDx9.dll = 26 B4 17 40
UserInterface.dll =26 B4 17 40

Then i downloaded this camera mod to fix the zoom
http://www.moddb.com/games/dawn-of-war/addons/camera-zoom-mod

hope this will help you

and all credits go to the original creators i just made some changes

Thanks man. I read another guide first that said the opposite of this line from yours
"W40k.exe = MUST stay ABAAAA3F Or it will look Weird"
It looked weird indeed lol

The search within Platform.dll returns negative, there isn't a code like that for me. Its a 21:9 2560x1080

I've just been playing with this on Soulstorm with the Unification mod and the minimap is fine as long as you leave the core .exe alone (in this case soulstorm.exe). All I did to get it running nicely in 3440x1440 21:9 was change the values in the soulstorm directory spDx9.dll and userinterface.dll from ABAAAA3F to 8EE31840 (platform.dll doesn't seem to need changing with Soulstorm) and in local.ini change the screenheight to 1440 and the screenwidth to 3440. Hope this helps someone

@typharius I have NEVER seen a widescreen 21:9 50 INCH tv in my ENTIRE life.

This is a fix for 21:9. Read.
