I know this patch just came out a few hours ago but how do you configure the game to use widescreen? when i go to option video, it shows the old 4:3 resolutions. 800x600 and 1024 x768.

I've been using that shortcut edit bullshht for widy but i want to see if it looks any diff supported natively (heard that the shortcut doesn't cchange the hud).

I thought they would have changed that with the final release.

The only "support" I found for widescreen resolutions in the game so far is the narrowing of the field of view when driving the apc.

This isn't real wide screen support. It's the same stretched out image you get from your monitor or video card. The native resolutions look much better without any scaling.
