Scorpion: Disfigured - how to mod ?

[ztorm]

Not a 1C game, but I can't find an official forum for this one and I guess some NecroVisioN/Mortyr/Vivisector fans might be interested in Scorpion: Disfigured, too.

S:D is "Vert-" so I'm trying to mod it for proper widescreen/surround support, and although it seems much easier than modding NecroVisioN was, S:D is apparently locked for .lua modding.

The value of the camera's vertical FOV is stored in
Scorpion-Disfigured\data\data.bzs\cameras\camera1.lua

However any change either has no effect, or causes the game to crash.
I tried hex editing the file, putting a custom file in various subfolders of the install rep or savegame folder, to no avail.

The only settings I was able to mod are stored in plain text in scorpion.prop. Nothing helpful in there.

Can anyone give me a hand ?
