Driver: San Francisco

Post by thales100 »



Widescreen Grade: B
Multi-monitor Grade: C

Read Full Detailed Report - Driver: San Francisco

Driver: San Francisco is a sandbox-style action driving video game developed by Ubisoft Reflections. The game takes place six months after the events of Driv3r. A new feature is "Shift", which allows Tanner to shift from a car into another car and continue the mission.

San Francisco is one of the largest driving environments, with about 208 miles (335 km) of road. Various landmarks were recreated in the game including half of the Bay Bridge and parts of Marin County and Oakland. However, it is a more fictionalized interpretation of these areas.

ps: i got steam version


Hi xxdenialxx, as its described in the Detailed Report you'll need a no-cd .exe by SKIDROW (update 1.01). Some memory hacks may work fine running different .exes, but if you have followed carefully all instructions (including number 7), and you still cant select your multi-monitor resolution, im afraid itll not work on steam version.

Also - Your aspect ratio

Post by HaYDeN »

Also - Your aspect ratio should have been around 4.0 for that res, Width / Height = Aspect Ratio.
GUI and Movie width = 1709 (5178 / 3)

Anyways - strange resolution?

Hey Jbrumba, to get 640x480 try to edit (using notepad) the "graphics" file at "graphics" file at C:Users...DocumentsUbisoftDriver San Francisco.

i did but it always goes back

Post by Jbrumba »

i did but it always goes back to 800x600 ffs!!! Also after i do this i switch to read only to maybe fix but it wont go 640x480. Like i said i managed to get a 720 x 480 after using the cheat engine, which is a lil out of my league but yeah. I know it should work but can't seem to get it to cooperate with me.

for me everything works fine

Post by Gunhead »

for me everything works fine except for GUI centering. When I edit the GUI value in Cheat Engine from 0 to 1, game image goes black. As soon as I put 0 back image come back and all is good. Is there a way for me to make GUI centering work? My res is 5760x1200, the game looks great with just a little stretch but playing with the GUI on the side screens is not a very good experience.

thank u guys for all your hacks.

dual monitor setup

Post by usasikh1 »

so i have hd 5770 with dual 23" monitors. I have installed 1.03 skidrow update. Now wanted to extend the gameplay to 2 monitors. Using the directions above I launched the game then ALT-TAb and launched cheatEngine6.1 and loaded dsfrancisco, but when when I tried changing the value of ASM move tray noting happens. THe values for all addresses is just showing as a question marks. ANY guidance will be much appreciated.

Post by Gunhead »

Apparently the last update broke the fix? somebody can confirm this? you can set widescreen resolutions without cheatengine but everyhting looks horribly stretched and cheat engine does not work anymore. At least that's what I get

Yup

Post by AttackOfTheThumbs »

1.03 or whatever broke everything. I can no longer pick my 1080p and the fix doesnt seem to work :( I dont know how to check the official 1.03 since I applied the crack before it cme out and then used the updated one :( Might just reinstall nd go to an old version to get 1080p back.

what you can do

Post by Gunhead »

you can reinstall the game and use the fix as before. However for me even that was not working 100% as I was not able to center the HUD.
