It could be useful if we post the parameters we found for
user.ini (locale.ini, etc). Later, we can use them for doing
utilities like the demo expanders.

user.ini can be created in FIFA 2005 demo's folder in order
to pass parameters to game. It's like every .ini file in Windows.

The file format is (basically..)

[OPTIONS]
PARAMETER = Value (where value usually is 1=YES, 0=NO)

[]
PARAMETER = Value... (usually 1=YES, 0=NO)

We can find the parameters using any hexeditor with the
main fifa exe file (or if u know how to use, you can use ollydbg).

so... this is an example (widescreen 16:9 mode enabled,
windowed, blue screen activated (useful for web art), referees
and linesmen enabled ingame):

== cut here ==

[OPTIONS]
WIDESCREEN = 1

[]
WINDOWED = 1
BLUESCREEN_MODE = 1
FEATURE_INGAME_REFEREE_ENABLED = 1
FEATURE_INGAME_LINESMEN_ENABLED = 1

== cut here ==

HALF_LENGTH, DEMO_MAX_HALVES and DEMO_ONE_GAME_ONLY seems not to work, that's why expanders are not working :(

This screenshot is with bluescreen, referee and linesmen, and
windowed. (widescreen looks very tall in normal displays)

Great discover..
