4-12 wish list (Merged)

[Pips]

Has any consideration been given to increasing the size of the pixel (if that's the right word) for distant aircraft? I know a lot of guys (including me) fly online in 1024x768 res so that we an spot distant aircraft (bogeys) and position to advantage - even if we're not sure if they are friend or foe.

The sad thing is that once your used to getting the best from graphics in 1680x1050 res or higher, 1024x768 is just awful!

Just wondering how much work is involved in adding widescreen support and higher resolutions? I tried tinkering with the config files and it kinda works, but all the visual clues in open pit (plane pointers/arrows/labels etc) are off. Maybe there are other issues but I haven't noticed.
My point is that most (if not all) modern Dispays are widescreen so it would make sense to update the game to support these resolutions - at least the 16:9 ratio. For instance 1920x1080 since it's probably the most common one.

I would like to add my voice to support higher resolutions, FOV fixes and widescreen support. Almost everyone is now at least using a widescreen monitor, while many are venturing into triple screens with the advent of Nvidia surround and other widescrren graphics displays. Modders have come up with various solutions, but it takes time, and it would be great to see a native support for Nvidia and crossfire.

Come to think of it this would be my number one wish above all else, so it’s a very big plus 1 for native wide screen for me as well.

I always use 1920x1080 and the narrowed vertical FOV that results from using this resolution can be a tad annoying, and it’s especially noticeable in the already very limited FOV of the Hs-129.

I also like to Shift F1 on landings and take-offs so I can see more of the instruments, but at 1920x1080 even that is still is not enough (I like to be able to see the three green).

Alternatively if true native wide support can not be provided could the end user be able to increase the max FOV to regain the clipped vertical FOV at 1920x1080, or at the very least make this an option for the Shift F1 view?
