The modification of the video8.cfg file did the trick, but I have a new issue.
My 1920x1200 pixel screen now shows exactly the same width of view as a 1600x1200 display, but it shows considerably less real estate up and down. I don't see some critical instruments, and there's less windshield for dogfighting.
Is there any way to WIDEN the viewing ANGLE in normal view so that I keep the same up and down view information as before but expand my view on the sides? This would be simply ideal. Otherwise, 1920x1200 is not a good res for running the game. It is kind of like running the game in slightly zoomed-in mode all the time.
Thx,
