Seems to work correctly and installation is also as simple as it gets. For approval do please upload the .mix straight to the Hive workshop or in a normal .zip as some users might not be able to open .rar files.

RenderEdge is a famous and great program, as we know. The experimental and basic versions have been well known by modders and players. Now we really desire a formal release of RenderEdge with fully developed features, not the experimental or basic.

Please continue your excellent work. The world is waiting for it.

This fix puts Blizzard and their first official widescreen solution (introduced on March 2011 with Patch 1.25b) to shame.

Also, amazing support by the developer for previous OSes and game versions (nine, no less!).


All in all, simply outstanding and a must-have for those who need it.

The UI does not seem to totally stretch for me, @ ultrawide with 3440x1440 - is this someting of the fix file or is there just no more UI content? :)

Hello i've to reinstall the client in 1.26 and downloaded this for the first time, but everytime i start the client, this message appear. I got the Visual C++ 64 that includes 2015,2017,2019 in one pack.

I want to know if someone else got the same error, or if the widescreen fix work and i just need to ignore the message. Or if need to install the x86 version.

Edit--

I got the Visual C++ x86 and the message doesn't appear anymore.
