Right now the demo only goes up to 1280x960 resolution. Are they going to include a 1680x1050 in the full release? Really want to make use of the Dell 2005 and I hate how stretched out the game looks in the 1280 mode.

right click onthe BF2 icon and go into proporties and have it look similar to this

"D:\Program Files\EA GAMES\Battlefield 2 Demo\BF2.exe" +menu 1 +fullscreen 1 +szx 1920 +szy 1200

obviously just put in the resolution you want to run.

+fullscreen 1 +szx 1680 +szy 1050 for WSXGA+

or

+fullscreen 1 +szx 1280 +szy 800 for WXGA


here is the thread

Give credit to the folks on the widescreen gaming forums for this find.

heres how to fix the FOV for widescreen aspect ratio. In the menu's its a little streched but in game its fixed.

So go into your Battlefield 2 Demo\mods\bf2\Settings\' directory and edit the 'VideoDefault.con'. Look for the line that reads 'renderer.fieldOfView 1' and change it to 'renderer.fieldOfView 1.1'
