Widescreen Gaming Forum

Thanks for your reply Yowie, but I can't install the demo on windows 7 x64 - it gives an error.

The HUD would still be messed up because it doesn't scale at all with the resolution, so I don't think that's going to do what you want it to do. What you want to do is have the game rendered at 640x480 but have the video card upscale it to a resolution that your HDTV can handle (with pillar boxing ...

You can do 1080i (1440x1080 @ 30Hz) that's a 4:3 resolution.

Great idea :) No idea whether my HDTV supports it or not, but only 1 way to find out.

What do I change the HEX into?

I've gotten a lot of great advice from Bootx, but now I've got a question he did not know the answer to:

Is there a way to upscale Sega Rally Championship 2 to 720p or 1080p, without changing the aspect ratio? In other words; I want this game to maintain its 4:3 ratio, while being upscaled to ...

Really bizarre.

Well I'm using the no-cd executable from GameCopyWorld (pg-sr2nc.zip), so you could give that a shot.

You've got a PM!

You'll find two instances of e0 01 00 00 68 80 02 00 00 - these control the screen resolution and both need to be changed. And then you'll ...

Yeah I know, it's a real bummer.. Thanks for your help though.

I've tried both strings you adviced, but it doesn't work :( . The game starts, but everything remains 640x480.

Have any other ideas? I could send you the .exe? That ain't piracy 'cause you can't do ...

WOW!! Thanks for all your trouble thus far!

What you need to know is that I need to run the game @640x480 resolution - or else it crashes. I use "95/98 compatibility mode" in Vista. When I load the game @640x480 it runs just fine.

I can't find the exact string you mention. The 640x480 ...

I'll look into it.

Thank you! :)

Yep, same problem here with Vista 32bits..

First of all, thanks for this great website & forum! A lot of old games looks better than ever thanks to the widescreen/FOV fixes :cheers

Secondly, I've looking for a fix for Sega Rally Championship 2. It's an oldie, but a goodie. It looks like this:
