Dolfan349 Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 My FOV/aspect ratio isn't right, but the resolution is there. The image is... stretched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffMerr Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Is there any way just to change the screen size? Can i change my 17" Widescreen resolution of 1440X900 to 1024X768 and have like small black bars on the left/right side? I really hate how the image looks, their faces and bodies are so stretched out it looks retarded and i have no urge to play it. Any advice?

pdub Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 The game doesn't even support widescreen resolutions unless they are hacked into the exe, so I'm guessing your monitor should have a setting in its on-screen display that you can change to force the correct aspect ratio of the resolution your using. If you can't find a setting like that on your monitor, then it should be in your video card settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffMerr Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I tried changing my laptop screen in the settings to 1024X768, the desktop of course looked all messed up, but it didn't change anything when i started the game, is that what you were talking about?

pdub Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 Well my monitor has the option of using the aspect ratio(black bars on the side) of the resolution, or to fill the screen (stretched). Those options are IN the monitor, they are not controlled by the computer. My video card control panel also has an option, but the video card option never worked for me. The setting shouldn't have anything to do with an actual resolution, so changing the destop resolution should not fix the stretched problem that you are having.

JeffMerr Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Ya i have a laptop so the screen doesn't really have any physical way to change it. If i used the .exe hack with those codes would it change anything? I just want to make it so the screen isnt stretched way out of porportion and the players actually look like humans and not some deformed alien.

pdub Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I don't have a laptop, so I don't think I can help you any further. You can go to the widescreen gaming forum and have a look at their forums, I'm sure a few people there have laptops. http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffMerr Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Tried doing it with the hex editor, the ingame menu looks fine, i can tell its at a different res., but once i try to start a game, it crashes. Any tips? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blendmodez Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Why does it crash to desktop for me when i follow the instructions properly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffMerr Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 Why does it crash to desktop for me when i follow the instructions properly? Does the ingame menu work? This is the problem i am having, i did it right, i have done it a couple of times. The game menu is ok, but once i start a game it attempts to go to the loading screen and then crashes to the desktop. Do i have to have the .exe on the exact res of my monitor? My monitor is 1440X900 but my .exe is edited to the widescreengaming forums suggestions which is a bit higher Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blendmodez Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 yea everything works in the ingame menu, i go to video options and do auto-detect and my resolution comes up. When it goes to load a game after configuring the lineups, it crashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

five Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 If the program crashes then it's not the monitor it's something else. If it was the monitor, it would just turn off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blendmodez Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 only errors when i select that resolution in mvp properties, it says my resolution correctly, just crashes everytime i try to play in it. Even in homerun showdown or Pitching games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pdub Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I stumbled upon this site http://www.notebookforums.com/forums/ , I'm guessing you have to register to be able to search the forums. It looks like it could be a very good laptop forum. Maybe you can find an answer to the laptop's stretched screen there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkilla74 Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 works great for me at 1680x1050 Hey how did you get it to work like that? I need the same thing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big shmooz Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 1600 in hex is 640 1200 in hex is 4B0 so for 1600x1200 string would be 04 b0 00 00 06 40 now convert to little endian 40 06 00 00 b0 04 so Find (ctrl + F) ' 20 03 00 00 58 02 ' Overwrite it with ' 40 06 00 00 b0 04 ' now if you computer blows up do not blame me I attempted to edit the .exe file to get my game to run at 1600 x 1200. I found the string that said 20 03 00 00 58 02 & literally typed in the numbers of 40 06 00 00 b0 04 ("b" is a letter, not a number) & saved it (my .exe file changed to today's date) & went ingame & I still see the 800 x 600 choice for resolution. May I ask what I am doing wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krawhitham Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 do it twice "20 03 00 00 58 02" has to be changed in the EXE in two different spots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
