My girl, she shot me in the chest and left me for dead. Or worse. And I got the worse. Now I get sprung by accident and everyone wants me to be their fixer. They call me, invite me into their homes and businesses, and meet me on lonely streets. I would say no, but I cannot talk. Life sucks that way.

Widescreen Support

Method

Native support for widescreen resolutions. For Hor + get the "GTA3 / GTA Vice City FOV Hack - v1.0" from http://www.tocaedit.com/.

The hack functions like a trainer. It needs to be running when the game is running to work.

These are the settings to use...

16:9
Field of View (FOV): 16
Height Stretch: 1.777

16:10
Field of View (FOV): 10
Height Stretch: 1.6

When you are in-game press the "*" key on the number pad to activate the hack. You need to do this each time you load the game.
