Bjorn, I don't know if it was directed at me, but I tried your massive code on the other page, and the game wouldn't start. For some reason when I started it up in safe mode, it wouldn't let me select any renderers and so I couldn't start it up.

Just tell them to port the game (with the mod) to Unreal 2 engine, and let the rendering problems solve themselves.

Actually I don't know to whom I directed it at. And your result is strange aswell... Might have something to do with that I have UnrealED installed... Oh, well... Maybe take I'll take a look at it tomorrow...

I'm very sorry I haven't answered in just over a month... There is really no good explanation.
Is this still an issue or has the problem been solved?

Thanks, that code works like a charm. Now I almost have no jaggies on my laptop(I have no clue how that is possible) Unfortunately I gained some amount of lag in the process (why cant all laptops have decent graphics chips) Now I want to see if this does anything on my desktop, the video was almost perfect already, so it will be interesting to see what happens.

bjorn98009_91,
With my desktop running a nvidia 7900GS at 1280x1024 I am getting some massive errors.

Any idea as to what in the code would be causing the error?

This is caused by the game not using the correct FOV for widescreen resolutions by default (which isn't unexpected).

From the Widescreen Gaming Forum (an infinitely useful site if you own a widescreen monitor):

http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/wi ... hp/Deus_Ex

Go to <gameDir>\system. Open deusex.ini. Find these lines:

FullscreenViewportX=xxxx FullscreenViewportY=xxx

Change them to set your resolution.

Now open user.ini. Find these lines:

DesiredFOV=75.000000 DefaultFOV=75.000000

Change the values to set your FOV to your preference.

16:9=91.3154482287
15:9=87.61661884
16:10=85.2812718522

If you set the correct FOV for your aspect ratio the text on the title screen should be fully visible and you'll also have more horizontal viewing space in-game.

Again, sorry for my long delay. I bet you use the enhanced OpenGL render and that you tabbed out from the game and later back into the game. This happened to me just now as I played, seems to be a bug with the OpenGL render.

Actually that is somewhat right, for some reason, it seems to be starting minimized. I never would have thought that would be the problem. Any idea as to how I can keep it from starting minimized?

Are you running fullscreen or windowed? Also check if the game resolution is your native resolution, ie. the resolution you have on you desktop.
