Kane & Lynch Dog Days - lobbying for surround support

Post by thales100 »

Just tried the Demo of this game, no multi monitor support, its unplayable, looking completely stretched, btw i tried to force a 48:10 aspect ratio, and menus become cut, plus the 3D part is still stretched, differently from K&L Dead Men - http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=56&t=15983 .
I posted at eidos forum requesting proper surround support, please post there too to support my request if possible. :wink:

hm, when the player drops to the floor the FOV goes really wild. At least it does here.
Sometimes surfaces dissapear.

Used X 1,054 and Y 0,176 for some zoom-out. I don't know how much zoomed out it is on single monitor though.

3 x 22"
3x 1680x1050 : 5232x1050

And what does Clip Aspect do anyway?

I have a feeling that the camera effects get too huge in eyefinity mode. I haven't played in single monitor yet but...hell those pixel/glow effects are way too large.


oh btw I had to download the msstdfmt.dll first. And used the command regsvr32 to add it to the system.

I tried doing this but it failed. Anyone else have trouble installing this dll?

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could upload a copy of their msstdfmt.dll file from the system32 folder. Preferably someone with 64 bit windows 7

Downloading & registering the dll didn't help, but I found another solution.
There's a small utility called Simple Shutdown Timer that will install the file. Download the Setup version (not Zip), install and you're all set. The hack should now run no problem ;)

I know this looks a lot like spam :mrgreen: but this is the best solution I found to this stupid problem. Kane & Lynch 2 / NFSUG2 hacks required this, and I suppose all future Racer_S tools will.
