So I just picked up Return to Castle Wolfenstein from GOG. Never played it before, thought I would try it. Right away discovered a problem with the game not supporting widescreen any better than vanilla Quake 3, but I found a nice unofficial patch by Knightmare that fixes that problem. But the multiplayer runs on a separate executable, and the patch didn't fix widescreen for it.
Are there any other options or source ports to get the multiplayer running in widescreen too? I don't know how much I would ever play the multiplayer, but still, I'd like it as an option.

RtCW multiplayer was pretty much superseded by Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, so if I made a widescreen patch, it would be for that game.
I'm not aware of anyone making widescreen patches for the multiplayer game, but I haven't searched, either.
Such a patch for RtCW MP or Wolf ET also would also not work with Punkbuster or many existing mods (as the widescreen changes replace the cgame and UI DLLs), greatly curtailing its usability for multiplayer.

RtCW multiplayer was pretty much superseded by Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory, I was not aware of this, and looking it up, I can see why that would take the multiplayer focus. Oh well then; with that I've basically lost interest in a multiplayer patch. Thanks for the info.
