None of the links on this page work anymore. Does anyone have a link to the widescreen mod?

Links are not working anymore... Could somebody post working one please! Thanks!
vince0018: The hi-res files work very nicely.
Just remember to set the resolution in-game to 1024x768 and not 800x600.
And even though my monitor's native resolution is 1680x1050, I found it easier on the eyes to use a lower set (1440x900 in my case) otherwise everything is so small it strains your eyes. But that's my own preference.
Here's a direct link to the second (fixed) version which is found at the link the OP posted but a little further down. In case you're too lazy to go clicking around.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/54001699/ZEUS/Zeus.7z
Just extract the 7z into your main Zeus folder. And make sure it overwrites the old files. If you want you can back up the old stuff. (In case you didn't want to search for the instructions.) dropbox has blocked the link as causing too much traffic... could you reupload the file? Links on wsgf org are also all dead now...
Thanks!

Sorry for taking so long to respond.
Are you still having trouble?
Just now I tried using the link above; the one I had posted to dropbox before, it's working fine right now.
But if for some reason you still can't get it working, I *might* be able to upload it somewhere else.
I say might because I'm not sure if the original creator of the hi-res mod would allow it or not. I'm not even sure who that is.
But if you still have trouble let me know, hopefully I'll get back to you in a more timely matter next time.

I'd really like to be able to play this widescreen, but your account is generating too much traffic or something. Error 509. If you would reupload it I would be ecstatic.

Ok, here's another link. I uploaded the files to Gamefront.
And to clarify; I am not the one who uploaded the files previously to Dropbox, this is my first time uploading them.
Nor am I the creator of the high-res fix. I have not modified the zip or files contained within it in any way.
If the original creator requests I remove the link I have provided, I will do so.

As always, if anyone needs help, or has any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Seems to me that this doesn't really fix the resolution or anything.
It just makes some of the briefing screens and load screens bigger.
The game itself is still basically stuck at 1024x768.
A shame.

Vince, many thanks for re-uploading this fix. I'm looking forward to checking this out on my GOG copy of the game. ;-)

Anyone else having any issue getting this to work?
I download / extract.
Copy and replace the 1920x1080 Zeus.exe.
Copy and replace the 1920x1080 DATA contents into the Zeus DATA folder.
Launch the game using the Zeus.exe and it's still in it's normal resolution.

Hi! I'm not able to get it work either. I tried with 1360x768 and 1280x720 and I just get a black screen and my computer hangs. I'm using Windows 8. The same thing happened to me with Emperor as well. Any ideas?
