Need a little help? Gun Sight Distorted?

[JG26_EZ]

Look for this in your conf.ini

[window]
width=1920
height=1200
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=0
Use3Renders=0

Height and width should be set to your monitor's resolution.
Enable resize and save aspect should be set to zero.

This should work for you.
Good luck.

Thanks JG26_EZ, will give it a whirl and hope it works. When I find/am given the solution, I will post it here for all. Much Appreciate the help guys.

I've got $500 riding on it

width=1680
height=1050

If the plane is looking stretched somehow, than I suppose, this is not the correct resolution. You said, its the monitors native one, but I tend to doubt that. Try other 16:10 resolutions like 1920:1200. Or better a 16:9 one (1920:1080).

My conf.ini is correct.
Here it is:

[window]
width=1920
height=1080
ColourBits=32
DepthBits=24
StencilBits=8
ChangeScreenRes=1
FullScreen=1
DrawIfNotFocused=0
EnableResize=0
EnableClose=1
SaveAspect=0
Use3Renders=0
WideScreenFoV=1
UIColor=0
UIDetail=0
UIBackground=en

However, in game, and in menus, it seems things are "fat". planes seem shorter then they should be, gun sights are slightly elliptic.
There are no black bars.
Take a look at this image of an F6F. Do these proportions look kosher to you?

Honestly it does seem a little "F4F-ish"...meaning a dab fat.

I think y'all are on to something here...My squadmate is a "Serbian Student" and I have emailed him this link to your help. Have not heard from him in a couple of days, pretty sure I will this weekend. Will let y'all know what worked. We much appreciate your interest and time.

Yes they do -the roundel on the fuselage seems fairly round. But it is difficult to judge from that perspective. Look at it from directly above, and measure the spanwidth and lenght of the plane, divide, rotate 90degrees and measure again, divide -compare. If the image is skewed, both measures should be significantly different.

If your monitors resolution really is 16:10 then try setting it up as such, use height=1200 or a different combination of width/height that does come up to 16:10.

My monitor is 16:9 and switching from 42" to 47" didn't help
