Widescreen Gaming Forum

Hi all

Just got Rainbow Six Las Vegas and its yet another new game that doesnt support widescreen resolutions baaaah!:evil: :evil:
Anyone figured out how to get widescreen modes yet ?

Another thing is this is the first(FULL) game other than that roboblitz thingy to use Unreal Engine 3 and to be honest I'm a little disappointed with the graphics and also the framerate , the textures are ..... well.....blurry and not clear at all close up and the framerate is crap , its very up and down depending on the area your in but goes from 20-60fps on an 8800GTX and oclocked 4800+(2.85ghz) at 1600x1200 which is poor imo especially considering the poor overall quality of the graphics.:cry:

Must be some others have tried the game , what are your experiences with it , framerate and graphics wise ?
Maybe theres an issue with the 8800 hardware and this game , and other hardware has a better time of it , would like to know tho , at least i'd know things will improve with a patch or summat.

I've only known the series for its lighting, not its set design, texture, or model details. Its apparent not much has changed. ;)

When someone gets the widescreen format, would be greatly appreciated. I'm anticipating it for release =D

omg this port is a of crap! ok, I dont have the high end machine, but I thing Unreal Engine 3 should run nice: 3.5+, 2 giga ddr, 7600 gt 256mb... and 12-20 FPS is a joke!

in 1024x768, but native lcd is 1440x900, ingame got 1280x960 as a choose, but of course it doesnt fit, takes down to 1100x830 thing...

looked over the .ini-s didn't find anything useful, its a SHAME! :roll:

Yeah I started playing this on my PC but about 10 minutes in I decided if I'm going to play a 360 game I might as well play it on my 360. Sick of these quick ports.

There is no wide screen or TFT resolution support in the game, you can edit the configuration file stored under my documents to get higher resolutions but doing that involves using a hex editor. Using wide screen resolutions means a messed up HUD as there is no way of changing the F.O.V in game or via configuration files, i've tried and it made no difference.

I've included some configuration files which have been edited for 960x600, 1280x800, 1440x900, 1680x1050 and 1920x1200 which are all 16:10 resolutions and 1280x1024 for normal TFT's, game settings are at medium, providing you do not alter the display resolution ingame you can increase or decrease detail settings as you wish.

Rename and Copy the file of the resolution you want to the following locations.

Rename file to R6GameConfig.bin

Place the renamed file in your "My DocumentsUbisoftR6Vegas" folder over write if you get prompted.

R6Vegas.rar

Very nice, thanks. But the standard 16:10 resolution is 1680x1050, not 1650x1080. This appears to be correct in the edited config file, just not in your post.

Opps little typo there :P

Thanks madmos5y ... and welcome to the WSGF .... 8)

As soon as I have the game I'll be checking this out for sure ... :D
Would it be OK for us to host the file here at the WSGF ?
