Multiplayer:

Just an update after reading the review today, there is a way to fix the resolutions in multiplayer mode, well at least this worked for me. Running Vista Ultimate 64 bit:

Go to Directory\SCDA-Online\System

Open Default.ini:

[WinDrv.WindowsClient]
WindowedViewportX=1680
WindowedViewportY=1050
FullscreenViewportX=1680
FullscreenViewportY=1050
MenuViewportX=1680
MenuViewportY=1050

That worked just changing that for me, then I went back and edited this part:

[SDLDrv.SDLClient]
WindowedViewportX=1680
WindowedViewportY=1050
FullscreenViewportX=1680
FullscreenViewportY=1050
MenuViewportX=1680
MenuViewportY=1050

Not sure if that second part had any effect, I tested it playing online and everything looks great. Let me know if this helped anyone. Wish people still played this online >_<

3D Solution

Single player anomalies

Opsat stretchs.
The zoomed sniper is unuseable in triplewide, videos and menus are stretched across all three screens, game looks correct though hud items are also stretched, but very playable.

Multiplayer anomalies

None
