Widescreen Gaming Forum

This should be moved to the "Solutions" page. This does indeed work.

Good job Buio!

This is a FOV-V "fix"

I have screens that demostrate this if need be.

Hi guys ...
Glad to see you are getting somewhere with this ...
Some screens from same position in the game would be good ... one before the change and one after.

@ Buio ... what Hex editor did you use?
and regarding ...

... I have also solved the AA problem (now set AA in the NVidia toolbar menu to affect general setting instead of using it from the Profile).

How exactly do you do this ... I'm being a bit thick this morning ... :? :D

Thanks guys ...

I can then add/move it to the Solutions section ... :D

I used the freeware Hex editor xvi32

Thanks Gabbo ... 8) ... keep up the good work ... :D

It's a shame the FOV is cut down ... :(

I'll add it to the Solutions section when I get time ... :lol:

EDIT: n/m...i figured it out through a ton of trial and error. :D

if anyone figures out how to make it widescreen,without the game cropping off to top/bottom parts of the viewing area, by all means contribute as that would make this even more enjoyable.

Wow thanx guys.

I just got this running in 1920x1200 -looks great.

FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE HEX EDITOR:

(!) Make sure you have the unencrypted version of the bloodrayne .exe -

[Find the Game Copy World link with Google, please]

(!) get the hex editor -

http://www.chmaas.handshake.de/delphi/freeware/xvi32/xvi32.htm

1 - open BL2 exe with xvi32

2 - use the editors' search function. Enter 1600 x 1200 into the text field, and press the convert button to convert to hex. Then search.

3 - You will see that the First hex value is highlighted.

4 - open the search function again, and use the text -> hex converter to give you a value for your desired resolution. DO NOT SEARCH.

5 - Copy and paste the new value into notepad.

6 - cancel the search, and open your notepad.

7 - The result of your original search should still be highlighted on screen.

8 - compare the notepad hex line with the one in the editor.

9 - Change the appropriate values.

10 -Save. DONE :)

examples:

1600 x 1200 = 31 36 30 30 20 78 20 31 32 30 30

1920 x 1200 = 31 39 32 30 20 78 20 31 32 30 30


note: remember to put in the spaces (1600 x 1200 NOT 1600x1200) when you search or convert.


Thnx.

Screenies coming.
:)

Mod Edit: Please don't link to sites containing cracked .exes. :) Thanks - it keeps the WSGF safe. ;)

1920x1200 shot in sewers level. 2xAA, 2xAF forced in catalystCC.

Here is a direct comparison. She is standing in the exact same spot in both pics.


1600x1200:





1920x1200:





Why the sewers? - I got way passed here and forgot to save. meh.

One last shot.

This one has 6xAA, 16xAF.

I've edited your post to remove the link - those who need the file will have to use Google. Direct links to sites containing cracks are a bad thing. ;)
