What bothered me the most was the disalligned HUD, but, when I found out I could fix that by also fixing the widescreen issue, I was happy I found your video. Thank you!
Thank you very much for this contribution, some might not dare to do this because they consider it too complicated, but with your guide it was easy, I just did it, and it worked very well. Who follows your instructions saving each file step by step, will not have problems. Thanks, this is the way to play DoW. Greetings from Argentina.
Still works in 2022! I am not tech savvy at all, but couldn’t stand the black bars. So I cautiously gave this a try, and it works. Thank you so much! Danke schön!!!
I recently bought the GOTY edition on Steam and everything was going well except for the resolution, I have a 21:9 ratio so large black boxes on each side. But thankfully I found this video! Thanks a bunch, your program saved the day!
danke schön ... thanks a lot for your efforts even after 5 years u still helping a lot of new players and make their experience with this masterpiece more comfortable
Was very reluctant to download some additional stuff (paranoia), but it all worked great in the end! Thanks. (edit: I did this with winter assault and it worked)
geht das auch bei Winter Assault? DoW 1 funktioniert jetzt wieder einwandfrei, danke. Aber wenn ich Winter Assault starte, ist die Radarkarte z. B. verbuggt
Just tried this with the STEAM version in 2021 and it doesn't seem to work, maybe there is a new patch on the game which is preventing this from working.
Do you have to do this for Soulstorm ect? I have done this for my goty edition on steam but not yet downloaded any dlc except for WA. Will i need to modify thos files?
I followed these steps and foud that...my game soud is kinda...absent. Any corolation with this maybe? Anyone encoutered the same phenomenon? By fucked i mean that I don't get any notifications anymore, units don't respond when clicked on, no sound when a unit or a building is finished either.
I have problems with minimap too Not so much in DoW the original, but in DoW Winter Assault my minimap is all over the place. Have you found any fixes?
First of all thank you so much for this fix, and second i have recently started studying software development and i'm curious first of all how did you find which values are responsable for the game not being able to become full screen, what is represented by those values, how did you know what to replace them with and so on, if you can spare the time to explain some technical details to a noob, the noob will be grateful
What I am setting, is basically the aspect radio of the game. I checked the default value by looking at the loaded RAM while the game is running. After that I manipulated this value in the RAM that it maps to an other aspect radio. Then it was just a matter of finding the place(s) where those values are set in the .exe and dll files. For analyzing the the game I used CheatEngine and OllyDbg. Unfortunately the TH-cam comment section is not the best place to elaborate the whole procedure. Have a look at tutorials for both programs. You might get the idea of how I did it then. I have written a program to patch this automatically. The link to the code (GitHub) is in the comment of this video.
@@epicLetsPlaysbypaddy i patched it the way you showed in the video so it works i was just curious, i shall definitely look at tutorials for the programs you have mentioned. You have my gratitude for spearing the time to answer!
Hat zwar gut funktioniert, ( auch mit 2560 x 1440p ) aber ich muss es vor jeden Spiel Neustart wieder über die Local Datei neu einstellen was Ehrlich gesagt ein bissl nervt.
Thanks for the fix, I didn't notice the captions at first and thought you where trying to make love with your beautiful voice.
Don't even speak your language and this helped me was easy to follow :D
Still works in 2024! Your programm made it way easier
Danke!

Calm down '
kleinen mädchen', the man has added an English subtitle track to the video.
Great video cheers.

Just started Dawn of war for the first time and this guide helped alot. Cheers!
Roses are red
Violets are blue
The title is english
Video should be too
If you're that bothered you should probably just learn some German, it's not that difficult.
hm, this video with a fix for my problem is in german, better go learn german!
hehe, noob.
@Razgul The Kind "learn German" for a 5 minute video.....wtf is wrong with u
There are subtitles english subtitles :)
Still works in 2022! I am not tech savvy at all, but couldn’t stand the black bars. So I cautiously gave this a try, and it works. Thank you so much! Danke schön!!!
ich habe wirklich viel gesucht, und endlich habe ich deine Video gefinden,
vielen dank, bro
WOW! Das sind mal TH-cam Hinweise die was bringen! Funktioniert für alle Auflösungen. Weltklasse Mann!

Instructions unclear, ended up with declaring war on Poland.
Bu seriously, thanks lad!
Is there some way to fix the mini map issue?
Vielen Dank es sieht so viel besser aus🥲
Thanks for the fix. Even though its 9year old video, this works on Windows 11.
The program say "Cant find ABAAAA3F", and other values it the same. Any solution?
make sure you change to hex-values I had the same issue.
@@rldeputy I did and it’s still saying can’t find
@@TheDdty the program he is using is an older vison i had to look up how to change it to hex-values i recommend looking it up as i had to
What am I doing wrong? I followed this step by step and nothing has changed. Please help
My God, it's worse. How can I only make the first file, now in addition to being black, the bands on the side flash. please help me!
Viel Dank von Denmark, freunde!
"ABAAAA3F" kann in keiner Datei gefunden werden? Was kann ich tun?
I didn't know about the subtitles, but extremely easy to understand, even if German is at best a 4th language for me.
Danke Danke Danke!
Danke Schön! This fix works like a charm
its good but... its make new glitch with mini map size and its almost block reason of mini map... and i still dont undestand how fix that
It worked thanks for this contribution but.
Do I paste the extra files in the official folder of the game?
Das video ist sehr nutzlich
danke
Any fix for the minimap offset?
Was very reluctant to download some additional stuff (paranoia), but it all worked great in the end! Thanks. (edit: I did this with winter assault and it worked)
Thank you so much! It works now in 2023!
Dude, that was great thank you very much.
Hello there! What if the HxD file could not find "ABAAAA3F"?
You need select Hex-values tab, looks like they changed in HxD 2020.
@@Ninja40K what if I already selected it ???
Thank you very much for this ❤
how do you fix a not supported resolution? the sounds still works but the monitor says its not supported
Please use the tool linked in the description. It can handle most resolutions automatically
Superb! Worked like a treat! Danke schön!
My minimap is so big that it goes off the screen, anyone know where I messed up?
After doing it in the W40K file, none of the other files Platform.dll, spDx9.dll, UserInterface.dll, find ABAAAA3F inside the hxd, please help me
Ayo anyone know an alternative to hxd since i forgot the pas for the administrative controls
hallo! habe den patch heute benutzt, aber das spiel sagt beim starten "grafikkarte konnte nicht initialisiert werden" und bricht ab. was kann ich tun?
it cannot find the ABAAAA3F in the hex
Will it also work in DOW:Winter assault?
ist der zweite schritt nicht unnötig?
I have Hitman 2 Silent Assassin, so this one can be apply for Hitman 2 Silent Assassin?
Great stuff, thanks or video and thanks for subtitles from UK
geht das auch bei Winter Assault? DoW 1 funktioniert jetzt wieder einwandfrei, danke.
Aber wenn ich Winter Assault starte, ist die Radarkarte z. B. verbuggt
I dont have the local file for some reason :(
Drag and drop onto your program does not work, shows black, crossed circle and nothing happens. Any idea why?
Draaghail Sorry for the late reply. Can you please create a bug on ticket on Github with a detailed description on what you did?
thank you! still works for 2024 windows 11
Just tried this with the STEAM version in 2021 and it doesn't seem to work, maybe there is a new patch on the game which is preventing this from working.
I created a tool which dose the patching for you. You can find the link to the application on GitHub. Link in the video description of this video.
as someone who unfortunately doesn't understand german i am not sure what the second part with the codes does
use the subtitles?
Bei mir is die Minimap broken...
Can't find ABAAAA3F:) Doesnt work sorry:(
why is there no English videos on this problem? did i miss something??
There are english subtitles :)
Thanks for adding subtitles!
Danke schoen von Michigan USA!
Do you have to do this for Soulstorm ect? I have done this for my goty edition on steam but not yet downloaded any dlc except for WA. Will i need to modify thos files?
James Downes No! You won‘t need to modify them. There are options in the menu.
you are my idol :) thank you
Playing again in 2024 i forgot to play winter assault expansion
I followed these steps and foud that...my game soud is kinda...absent. Any corolation with this maybe? Anyone encoutered the same phenomenon?
By fucked i mean that I don't get any notifications anymore, units don't respond when clicked on, no sound when a unit or a building is finished either.
Did you get that fixed? I am having the same issue
I found some problem on my minimap how to fix it?
here is my screenshot www.mx7.com/view2/zNAOny8Q8pD6tNk9
I have problems with minimap too
Not so much in DoW the original, but in DoW Winter Assault my minimap is all over the place.
Have you found any fixes?
@@geniemiki yeah I'm struggling to find a fix
Thank you but it's way too zoomed in for me. Is this normal?
Does this work with the expansion Soulstorm?
I think Soulstorm supports 1920x1080, the only ones that don't are DoW 1 and Winter Assault. Dark Crusade and Soulstorm do it naturally, I think.
Danke.❤ sehr gut
Hast du eine idee wie man die minimap im spiel wieder richtig bekommt?
First of all thank you so much for this fix, and second i have recently started studying software development and i'm curious first of all how did you find which values are responsable for the game not being able to become full screen, what is represented by those values, how did you know what to replace them with and so on, if you can spare the time to explain some technical details to a noob, the noob will be grateful
