I'm a total newbie to these forums, but I've used Wogg's hacks before in the past. I just got my hands on Need for Speed Underground 2 and desperately wanted some custom resolutions, so after 10 minutes with a hex editor I managed to create a patch.

To keep things simple, I just added the patch to Wogg's UniWS patcher... simply download the modified patches.ini and save it over your existing patches.ini. NFSU2 should appear as the last game in the patcher menu.

Have fun :)

mird-OC and Woggs,
Again, thanks for your great work. Is it possible that you could help with a how-to guide to hack other games to use custom rez? Any insights you can provide will much appreciated. For examples, how did you do the ones you have done? Can all games be modified? I would like to do one for the Mechwarrior 4 Merc. The registry and ini mod is not working as someone has suggested. The strange thing is that only the training mission works but nothing else. Thanks.

Thanks for the hack, your the man.

Here's a pic to show it works.

Wogg, this little program is great. Was wondering if you could add some of the Madden games, particularly 2004. Would also love a tutorial on how to write these patch files for particular games, creating a larger database for all of us to use.

waitttttttt what do you apply the patches.ini to??

Use the UniWS .exe that was provided earlier in this post, in conjunction with the .ini file, to patch the .exe of the target game.

If you've not read all of this thread, do so. It will likely answer your question. :)

anybody care to share how to create these widescreen hacks?

mird-OC · Post by **mird-OC** » 22 Dec 2004, 05:30

I'll write a little step-by-step the next time I do one... it can be quite involved requiring some low-level debugging to find out what needs changing, but thankfully there are a few quick and dirty tricks which can be applied to many games, although even this route often requires a lot of trial and error.

But anyway, I'll see what I can do.

I too would LOVE to see ALL of the EA Sports games in widescreen mode. Tiger Woods 2005, Madden 2005, NBA Live 2005, NHL 2005, Fifa 2005...... would be VERY THRILLED.

Thanks so much!! Would be happy to try myself once you write up the little doc file on how to ecit them!

No matter what I do I simply can't get the KOTOR hack to work.
Any ideas?
(The other ones work just fine)

xhonzi · Post by **xhonzi** » 06 Jan 2005, 18:15

What do you mean by 'doesn't work'? The program doesn't run after the patch? The program runs, but not in Widescreen? Or (like mine) it crashes after you choose a WS resolution?
Please be more detailed.

The above link to the new patches.ini is not working. Could you please update it? :D
