It wont' let you play with 32-bit color? For some reason the game lags/chops really bad if I switch to 32 bit, turn on Anti Aliasing, or increase the Draw Distance. :? I'm going to go check out the camera hack right now and see if i can get it to work.... ....I tried three different version of the ...

I cannot believe I did not toggle the wide screen option to see the difference. I just assumed the widescreen toggle was for non widescreen aspect ratios (example: 4:3) so that they would be forced fit. After toggling the widescreen option the characters feet are below the screen, but this seems to ...

Ok....I fiddled around a little and got 1920x1080. I found this page: http://www.widescreengaming.net/wiki/Grand_Theft_Auto:_San_Andreas Under "Supported Resolutions" it states that 1920x1080 can only be achieved with version 1.01. So, with the no cd fix in mind I hunted down the only version 1.01 c...

I'm not entirely sure of what you mean.

Where would one get another GTA:SA main executable file other than the one provided from steam upon downloading and installing the game.

....or am I showing how little knowledge I have on this matter...because that is very possible. :D

Ok so I pulled an OCD card and and started from scratch. I deleted all local content and uninstalled steam. I then pulled a system restore to "out of the box" status. Updated all of my drivers manually one by one instead of letting windows 7 do it. Installed steam and then GTA:SA Ran the game once a...

Yeah...the value above that is "09" in the "1024x768x32" picture is the one I tried changing in intervals. I changed it from 01 to 25 and every time it went back to the default 800x600x32 when I would start up the game after the change. I have also re installed 3 times so far. ...I think that this i...

Unfortunately I was not able to run this game in a window. I tried adding "-window", "-windowed", "-safe" etc to the target of the desk top shortcut and the launch options via steam. I also had no luck when changing the number you specified. Every time I changed it the game reverted back to 800x600x...

Nope...This Notebook is pretty much out of the box with no aditional displays or browsers...etc. The first thing I did after turning it on was make sure my drivers were up to date and download steam so I could get all my games up to snuff for my christmas trip. ....long trips need long games...hence...

There were no changes upon the deletion of the gta_sa.set file. I would like to set some custom resolutions and asprct ratios like I had to do with Doom 3 on my last PC...but I would not know where to begin with GTA:SA. I can not find a config file to do such a thing. I looked in ....DocumentsGTA Sa...

Your resies are capped at 1280x1024 but you display at 1920x1080. Do you have more resolutions between those two? If so, that would indicate a driver problem or amybe the game is limiting the choice of available resies. The only resolution avaible to me via Windows 7 or the ATI Catalyst are: 800x60...

I deleted all local content and reinstalled with no luck. I tried Resolution Changer 2 which resulted in the game moving to the left side of my screen still in 4:3 ratio.

I just bought Grand Theft Auto San Andreas version 3.0 via Steam and am having trouble running it in 1920x1080 (16:9). In fact, there seem to be no options for 16:9 in any form. I have spent several hours reading/searching forums for a fix with no luck. I have updated all of my drivers with no resul...
