Note: I have not tested this yet but it looks good.
IF YOU ARE GOING TO USE THIS DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK - THIS HAS NOT BEEN OFFICIALLY SANCTIONED BY EA/DICE OR PUNKBUSTER

REGARDING PUNKBUSTER
I have been communicating with EA and EvenBalance over the use of this program. I've gotten responses from both that say this program is allowed on PunkBuster-enabled servers. It's not any kind of official announcement and the use of it is subject to change. In other words, this program is OK to use for now. If anything changes regarding its usage, I will update here.

Please be very careful as the Punkbuster lot may actually change their stance on this and it could lead to your account being disabled.

Did you play with the update slider a bit? Apparently if it is too low it can mess it up.

Nah only found it this morning and I am in my office - will have to wait till I get home unfortunately.

I have no idea - I would guess that it works in conjunction with the command line. It just appears to resample the display and correct the FOV.

I have had exactly the same issue with the zoom focus - it is certainly an issue - so much so that I am not actively using it altho the game looks so much better at native res with the correct FOV.

1.4 Patch is not out yet but I guess that not even this would be enough to convince DICE and EA that widescreen is not so much of an advantage.

Been using this for a little while now, makes a hella difference and brings a whole new feeling of speed to the game.

My buddy is a WSGF regular and knows the creator, hes told me that the creator of this has e-mailed and had confirmation from Evenbalance that it's totally legit etc and is safe to use.
Been using it for a good while now and I'm safe so go ahead have a real FOV WS users.

Deleted does your buddy know if the creator has a sights jitter fix in the pipeline?
