Widescreen resolution for SpellForce 2: Gold Edition

[0z2y]

I use this method by GoG user DeMignon and thought we should share it here as well:

1. go to My Documents\SpellForce2 folder
2. open config.xml using any text editor, I recomend Notepad++
3. search for screenheight="XX" screenwidth="XX" and set them to your desktop resolution
   (e.g. screenheight="1050" screenwidth="1680")
4. Optional: Adjust the field of view (FOV)
   1. start a game
   2. bring the console by pressing Ctrl + ] - if that shortcut don't work, read SpellForce 1 Console Commands
   3. for 16:10 resolutions type:
      UI:SetCameraFOV(0.94)
   4. for 16:9 resolutions type:
      UI:SetCameraFOV(1.027)
   This will adjust the field of view, however not for the cutscenes.

This method can also be found on the WSGF forum from a 2011 post, so probably they are who to credit...
