NFS: Most Wanted

KlaasH · Post by **KlaasH** » 23 Jan 2006, 14:33

I have NFS MW 1.2 on my laptop, running perfect on 1024x768 with all details etc. activated.

When I set the resolution (using resolution changer nfsmwres.exe) to 1440x900 the game still runs smooth but it feels like there there is some kind of delay in the steering.
I can hardly control the car in the game. When I steer it happends to late and when it happends it happends very sudden.

How is this possible, I lowered the details, switched AA & Texture Filtering off, set resolution to 1280x800 but this does not help.
It tried various setting in AtiTools (Adaptive AA, A.I, Geometry Instancing, over clock, standard clock) but this also doesn't help.

My specs are;
-17.0" WXGA (1440x900) TFT
-Pentium M 1.86GHz
-1 GB m(2x512MB, 533MHz)
-ATI Mobility Radeon X800XT, 256MB
-80GB 5400RPM SATA
-ATI Mobility Catalyst 6.1 drivers (with old control panel) & AtiTool & NotebookHardwareControl

Hello ... welcome to the WSGF .... :D 8)

I think the problem might be that with the new 16:10 ... 1440x900 resolution you do not have the correct field of view (FOV) ... and so the game will feel strange ... zoomed in ... to get the correct FOV download the Camera Hack ... second post ... here ... http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/node/5928

:D

Well, I installed the 1.3 fixed EXE and Camhack program but I can nog zoom out. 2 bad.

Hi ... then may be you aren't using it correctly ... :wink:

Just in case ...

Start up the Cam Hack ... leave it open/running ...
Start up the game using the Res changer ...
Once the game is running and you are in a Race or Free Roam ...press the * key on your key pad then use the + or - keys also in the key pad to zoom in or out ... :D

Let me know how you get on ... 8)

Hi thanks,

Am I using the right crack?

The "honk" says to me that it is working ... use the + and - keys on the number pad to zoom in and out ...

I am using this ... NFS: Most Wanted v1.3 [MULTI] Proper No-DVD/Fixed EXE

It is 1.9 MB ...

Hey thanks, with the new speed.exe file it's working indeed.
I still have to get used to the new field of view but think that it's only a matter of time.

How can I save various 'preset' views?

How can I save various 'preset' views?

I don't think you can ... :?

I have found it best to just not mess about with the view once I have what I want. That said ... by playing around with it helps to understand how it all works ... :D

Where the hell did you get that one Paddy. :shock:
I want one. :P

Paddy has turned to the dark side :twisted: :D.

Post by **ctrlsteef** » 04 Feb 2006, 19:06

Well, maybe, maybe not.
It should help not getting caught by the cops when you do a race.
They would just think you are one of them. 8)

Its from a save game file I found ... you have 0% of the career done but all the bonus cars in YOUR garage ... some you can use straight off some you have to beat Blacklist Members ...
Just make a folder in your NFS-MW folder in My Documents called Bonus and drop the file in the zip file into that folder ...
See the Bonus download near the bottom of this page ... http://forum.nfsunlimited.net/viewtopic.php?t=10042&start=120

I think I'll redo the career with Rino .... :mrgreen:

Thanks for the tip Paddy, that's awesome. Now i finally have something to do left in NFSMW.
It began to be a little boring doing the same chases over and over again.

okay I looked at Paddy the Wak's alternative to using Art Money, and from the screenshot, it looks as if it only works with Version 1.2 and 1.3. Getting a patch isn't a problem, but I was just wondering if those patches are compatible with the Black Edition.

Post by **Paddy the Wak** » 11 Mar 2006, 21:09

I have heard it doesn't work with tha Black Edition ... but not having the Black Ed myself I can not confirm this ... :(

Did you guys update the game with a Black Edition patch or just a regular 1.3?
