its possible that OFP won't work with widescreen monitors (which I assume that you are using), it did come out in 2001 after all.

However Bohemia Interactive recently re-released operation flashpoint as 'Arma: Cold War assault' which is the same as Operation Flashpoint just with a slightly modified engine (I think it supports widescreen)

It won't cost you anything to download and you just need to enter your Operation Flashpoint cd key.

I run Win7 64 bit and I have played both OFP and CWA just fine on a 1080p monitor. Check your resolution settings and ensure that if you have a 1900x1200 monitor, that you are not running at 1920x1080 and vice versa.

That's a 16:10 ratio IIRC. You may need to edit your cfg file if you haven't tried it already. Try using "fovTop=0.625000"

---------------------------------------

In your \users\*username*\userinfo.cfg file you have two values:

fovTop=0.750000;

fovLeft=1.000000;

This is set up for 4:3 scaling, which is correct for the following:

0640 x 0480 - VGA

0800 x 0600 - SVGA

1024 x 0768 - XGA

1600 x 1200 - UXGA

2048 x 1536 - QXGA

You should adjust the scaling to 5:4, ie

fovTop=0.800000;

for these resolutions:

1280 x 1024 - SXGA

2560 x 2048 - QSXGA

For widescreen displays, your scales may vary.

04 : 03 - fovTop=0.750000;

05 : 04 - fovTop=0.800000;

16 : 09 - fovTop=0.562500;

16 : 10 - fovTop=0.625000; // 1920 x 1200 WUXGA, 3840 x 2400 WQUXGA

Here are some HDTV formats, use the scales posted above:

1280 x 0720 - 16:9

1920 x 1080 - 16:9

But if you have a plasma screen your direct inputs may vary, unique fovTop values are listed below:

1024 X 0852 - .83203125 - 32" (81.28cm)

1024 x 1024 - (1:1) - 42" (106.68cm) & 43" (109.22cm)

1024 X 0768 - (4:3) - 42" (106.68cm) & 43" (109.22cm)

1365 X 0765 - .56043956 - 50" (127cm), 61" (154.94cm), & 63" (160.02cm)

1365 X 0768 - .562637362 - 50" (127cm), 61" (154.94cm), & 63" (160.02cm)

Afaik you have to edit these in Notepad, there is no direct method. Some of these resolutions are admittedly esoteric, I just included them for reference.

For multimonitor displays, your

fovLeft=1.000000;

will normally equal your number of displays.

The only exception to all this is if you use your displays in portrait mode, or multimonitors in portrait mode. In those cases, you would swap the values of the two fov settings.
