Modded cars are too narrow/stretched?

[Fourjays]

Hey,

I tried modding all the San Andreas cars some time ago (a year or more) but eventually had to give up as my video card (FX5900) at the time couldn't handle all the high poly models.

 

Now I have a 7600GT I thought I would give it a go again. The problem is that all the cars I've tried so far appear to be coming out too narrow. I have installed the cars using SAMI.

I initially thought maybe it was bad modelling by the guy who did the cars in the first 3 shots, so I tried a car from another guy - still looks narrow.

 

Any ideas what's causing it? Could it be related to me now using a widescreen monitor?

 

Any help is appreciated.

looks like you have enabled "Widescreen" option, it could be that

Yes it is enabled, but without it everything is wide and short. Everything else looks fine, just modded cars are coming out too narrow.

 

Edit: I think you are right. If I sit the Skoda police car next to the taxi, the height and width are nearly identical. Might be that everything is too narrow but I haven't noticed it as they are not "real" cars, so they have no "real" proportions. Thanks anyway.
