I'm just wondering if there is an easy fix to enable widescreen resolutions on GTA SA. I mean anything other than the widescreen fix for version 1 (I have v2). Is there like a way to change the resolution in the files or something? Thank you in advance!

Introduction
The current version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (v3.0) brings with it many problems, such as incompatibilities with mods, removed soundtrack, problems with modern operating systems, etc. Modifications like SA-MP or Multi-Theft-Auto are also incompatible with the 3.0 version.
This guide aims to easily fix those issues without altering the original Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas experience.
Also, with these mods you can start the game normally from Steam and record your playing time.
All the fixes shown in this guide can be downloaded from their original sources.
Downgrading
Important!
Before you start fixing the game, you must first downgrade Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas to version 1.0, in order to get rid of the problems of the Steam version. I highly recommend that you do it in a clean installation of your GTA San Andreas, and as always, have a backup of the game in case you have any problem related to the game files.
The process is simple. Click the link and go to the Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas – RGSC / Steam to v1 section and download the file.
Download:

Extract the rar file into the game folder, then run “install.bat”. The downgrade process will start, and a command prompt will open. It will close automatically at the end of the process. The files you extracted earlier will be automatically deleted.
Then delete the files “installscript.vdf” and “gta-sa-steam.exe”, as they will be useless and may cause errors.
Your Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas copy is now downgraded to version 1.0. This means that the original radios are restored and that the game is ready to be further fixed.
