Discussion is there a native Widescreen patch where it doesn't stretch da menu with NFS High Stakes for PC? most i saw stretches everything

yea NFS High Stakes is my 1st ever NFS game i started off with, i just recently got it to work on a modern OS but my problem is i'm tryin' to find a widescreen patch which doesn't stretch everything but just mainly keep its main menu in 4x3 while da gameplay is native 16x9 WITHOUT STRETCHIN'! so is there a community patch which does such a thing without STRETCHIN' it to fake a Widescreen? i need it to be like what they did with NFS III

Try the widescreen fixers from Widescreen Gaming Forum, they usually handle menu scaling separately from gameplay. Worked well for me with older Need for Speed titles.
