Additional note by By AlphaYellow: A fix for the English/French/German version exists here:

https://community.pcgamingwiki.com/files/file/3035-alex-builds-his-farm-fix-pack/

Features:

- Made the game "portable" so that it looks for the configuration file (ubi.ini) in the game's root directory rather than the Windows directory (Note: The "UbiSoft" subfolder isn't needed in the game's folder – just copy ubi.ini from C:\Windows\UbiSoft\ to the game directory, or also use the ubi.ini included in this fix if you can't find any in the mentioned directory).

- FOV now scales automatically with the resolution that's in ubi.ini (Check here for instructions for setting widescreen and wider resolutions).

- Fixes the placement of the green bar (HUD element) on resolutions other than 640x480.

- Texts, HUD elements and menu backgrounds are now unstretched and centered at the 4:3 area (there is also a version of the patch that keeps these elements stretched if it's preferred by some).
