Very cool, is there any hope for a fixed exe for the expansion pack, Cleopatra: Queen of the Nile?

This one won't work for it as the game uses a slightly different exe.

@jackfuste

You are the man !!! Cheers !!!

But my resolution is 1360 x 768, cause Im use 19", I'm too lazy moving my LCD TV to my PC, because my TV have 1920 x 1080 though.
Oh yeah, why it's crashed ? Just forget my question ^_^ .. But I hope you can help about that, because there's no one can help in these 3 years (I think so)
It's wonderful to hear someone makes a wonderfull progresss.... you are the man :)'

I have a screen resolution of 2048x1152. (Samsung Syncmaster 2343BW) Is there any hope to get a fitting Pharaoh.exe for Cleopatra with that resolution? I forgot: Thanks in advance - and thank you for the existing resolutions, which are of great help. I played yesterday the complete "Kemet"-campaign with 1920x1080 and no problems.

No, because it not finished yet, please be patient for about a week or two.

Yes, it will be after Zeus.

Sweet. I just installed Emperor and went searching if someone had come up with a solution since there was none about 3-4 months ago.
I'm positively thrilled that people still work on good games like that.

Jack,
Another request for 1366x768. It tried to hack your files using a hex editor and comparisons, but gave up after 40 minutes.
Now that I got one of your other resolutions working in my Cinema Display, I really would love it on my Air.

I am rediscovering all my old favorites - Homeworld, Pharao/Cleopatra etc. using VMware Fusion. Does a great job with both DirectX and OpenGL...

Post by Hape »

Jackfuste: I discovered Emperor just today and would be glad, if you could include my exotic screen resolution (2048x1152) again. For now I'm glad with your Pharaoh-patch and look forward to the Emperor. Your great work is very appreciated!

I happened upon this fix when I was looking for Zeus in Widescreen mode. I am SO excited to see it become a reality, and jackfuste, your work thus far has been amazing. I've rediscovered my love for Pharaoh and it's expansion. Keep up the good work, and I look forward to your next posting!!!
