So even though some things work the same for everyone other thigns we'll have to come up with setups that work on your setup
But it's not that big of a deal
Where I at a part in Normandy have a shield formation shoot out at me with spears out and get pushed around by the rumans making it hard to move around it to grab a potion
I'm probably going to release the widescreen patches for XXL 1 & 2 tomorrow. I've fixed XXL 1 properly now, so there is no hacking the camera position anymore. Everything (except the menue) is opened up to the sides, including the map. I've also managed to get rid of most of the disappering on the sides issue in XXL 2. The menue is still a bit messed up when you first start the game, but fixing that isn't really worth my time at the moment.
It also lets you do this.

Once I'm back on regular Wi-fi I'll share it alot
@pyramidensurfer Does the patch also play around with the view distance? I know from the GC version that the game actually renders quite a bit more than you actually see on the screen because it's clipped outside the view frustum. I don't know on which level you actually adjust this kind of thing but is it possible with reasonable effort to extend the far plane to increase view distance?
It doesn't at the moment, but I might try adjusting that in the future. My time is fairly limited in the next few weeks though, so it might take quite a while.
Id love such thing as a view distance increase in the gamecube version
That would mean taking screenshot for the map
So high that 3D distortion on borders would be almost inexistant.
Hey @pyramidensurfer I just shared your video to ELB and they love it
Hopefully Olympic games has widescreen implemented already and even allow custom sizes like 21:9 (this works!)
Now... I'm back on Windows but it's a Virtual Machine
ANd I haven't fixed that Direct 3D issue yet ( not even Project64 works atm )
If only I had a gamecube shaped controller for the Wii U or a custom imput config, I would be running on my Wii U with CGN version
