I asked about how to do this myself once before and was pointed towards a HUD patch I can't use because I play on PS3. So I'm requesting a regular mod be made that hides the black borders during cutscenes if possible. And also the game's calendar date if that can be done. Or at the very least, does anyone know which files in the data folder they are? I don't really know how to make mods from scratch, I only know how to modify existing ones.

Hi, I was looking into pretty much the exact same thing too, in the past. I tried to make a mod for it, and I know it worked too, but trying to run it now for some reason it keeps getting access violation errors, so maybe giving you the file locations will work for you.

You want:

resident/CinemaScope.plg - The black borders during cutscenes. Here is a dummied out PLG to replace it:

For the date HUD, calendar/cldresrc.pac/p5_field_day.spd is what you want; those are the textures for the dates, weather, etc. I think these are what's causing the access violation errors for me right now. Maybe you'll have better luck.

I remember that even with all the file replacements, I still had to use the hide HUD patch to get the full look I wanted, but I hope this is a helpful start. If I remember correctly, you can also use the Mod Menu to enable/disable 8959 in Flags for the date HUD.

Thanks a lot! I'll try these out and report back with my findings if I get them to work on PS3. :)
