Anyone know of a patch/mod that fixes the stretched Hud in widescreen resolutions like 1280 x 720 in Halo pc? I already got the ugly fov fixed. Please reply if you know what im talking about.

hmmmm, not sure. I know that fixing my screen for 1680x1050 so that my MP chat-box showed up involved editing the 1200editbox.ksml file. Not sure if a similar thing could be done to change the scaling for widescreen. Can I ask what was wrong, and how you changed, the FOV?

Well I was trying to make a video for youtube and thought of making it HD (youtube uses 720p)
So I scaled my resolution to 720p windowed mode, apparently Halo didn't support proper widescreen, and the field of view was all F****** up, so I got this program called HaloThirdFov from Racer_S. Got that fixed, now the only thing that bothers me is the hud. It's stretched out
and the crosshair is more of an oval instead of a circle. I was wondering if you can set the hud in a screensafe area like in H2vista (not sure if its called that) or just somehow fix the hud to it's original state.

Ah, i c. Yeah HaloThirdFov only changes the perspective of the screen, not the scaling of the HUD itself. I don't think I've ever seen anyone post about how to change the HUD scaling....
