Current Features:

 
1. FOV (Field of View)
- This feature allows you to change your FOV.

- When changing the FOV, the weapon position is kept in relative position to the screen.
- While adjusting, the degrees (width x height) are displayed
 
2. Weapon Position
- This feature allows you to change the way you hold your weapon.
- Each weapon has its own position
 
3. HUD Options
- Allows you to turn on/off all HUD elements, including those ignored by the command "show_hud".
- Allows you to scale the HUD to fit the screen's aspect ratio.
- Allows you to turn on/off the chat messages.
- Allows you to turn on/off the death reports (i.e. Beaufort was killed by Dippy)
- Allows you to display your kill/death reports as HUD messages. (i.e. "You killed Broseph (12)" is displayed in the HUD rather than the chat text)

Love it. You don't suppose one could set up monitors around a whole room, and create a 360 panoramic Halo view, do you?

The method used to scale the HUD will cause it to become grainy when the screen is too wide. But it works really well for the resolution in the screenshots (1024x480), which is wider than 16:9.

When I come up with a better method, yeah, it will support multiple monitors better.

Nothing I'd really use, but good job still!

I'm guessing this isn't Vista compatible, as I cant get it to work.

i have vista and it worked for me, but it doesn't work with the active camo fix.

[Kornman00]

What active camo fix?

[Zeph]

Yeah, nevermind, xfire doesn't like this very well.

What active camo fix?

DXTweaker, when i loaded ce through dxtweaker with the dll files in my ce directory i got gathering exception data. Only tried it once but when i tried loading the normal custom edition exe it worked fine.

edit: tried it again with the same results.
