There is a new fix available that enables you to use bump-mapping on high on new GPU's and more (see own legs, hud fix)!

Some usefull things to add:
• if you want to add your own custom resolution which is not already included (so you may select it from options menu, no more editing ini files) open XinterfaceCtmenus.int file located in GameData\System folder with notepad, you will see this:
[CTGraphicsOptionsPCMenu]
Options[2].Items=("640x480","800x600","1024x768","1152x864","1280x960","1280x1024","1600x1200","1920x1080","28 80x1620","3840x2160","4096x2304")
now add for example "1600x900" and you will have that selection in game options.
• you still need to hex edit engine.u file to change FOV for other than 4:3 aspect ratio if you like to preserve vertical coverage. You may find that 00 00 cc 42 value is recommended for 16:9 ratio throughout the web (PCGW etc...) but I find the value 00 00 cb 42 to be vertically identical to the default FOV in 4:3 ratio. See attached images for comparison.
