    • 0005 and 0003 for 1280x768
    • 0005 and 2003 for 1280x800
    • 0005 and 0004 for 1280x1024
    • 5605 and 0003 for 1366x768
    • A005 and 8403 for 1440x900
    • 4006 and 8403 for 1600x900
    • 4006 and 0004 for 1600x1024
    • 4006 and B004 for 1600x1200
    • 9006 and 1A04 for 1680x1050
    • 8007 and 3804 for 1920x1080
    • 8007 and B004 for 1920x1200
    • More values available here
  4. If you can't edit the file because of no permissions, right-click the file, click on Properties and uncheck "Read only".
  5. Press Ctrl+F and search for ABAAAA3F.
  6. Press F3, replace the ABAAAA3F value with:
    • 0000A03F for 5:4 screens
    • CDCCCC3F for 16:10 screens
    • 5555D53F for 15:9 screens
    • 398EE33F for 16:9 screens
    • 54551540 for 21:9 screens
  7. Press F3 three times.
  8. Do the same replacement as before.
  9. Press Ctrl+F and search for 400000003F.
  10. Click after the 40 value.
  11. Press Ctrl+R and select "Floating point number".
  12. Search for 0.5 and replace with one of the following values which represents FOV. However, the higher FOV value you set, the more objects on both sides of the screen will disappear.
    • 0.46875 for 5:4 screens
    • 0.6 for 16:10 screens
    • 0.625 for 15:9 screens
    • 0.666666 for 16:9 screens
    • 0.875 for 21:9 screens
  13. Save the changes.
  14. Run CTConfig.exe and set the resolution to 640x480.
  15. Widescreen resolutions cause cropping on bottom parts of the menu and HUD. To fix this issue, open the GPU Control Panel and set scaling to fullscreen.
