Unofficial patches for System Shock 2 and Thief have appeared on a French forum , offering support for widescreen monitors at high resolutions. C'est bien! There are a few mods out there that'll do you a similar service, but these patches are bundled with some bug fixes. Both patches seem to share the same changelist, which will be a relief for all guards on shallow water watch as "AIs now breathe from their head instead of their stomachs. They will no longer drown when up to their waist in water."

The patch was spotted by former Irrational chap and co-founder of the awesome Idle Thumbs , Chris Remo , and Kotaku , and arrives alongside news of a new update for the epic Complex mod for Homeworld 2 . Modders FTW!
