Not quite. You'll need to manually change the resolution in the RichardBurnsRally.ini file.

For example:

XRes = 1024
YRes = 768

to

XRes = 3072
YRes = 768


Then you need to use RBR Camhack program from here:
http://toca.game-editing.net/files
http://www.bhmotorsports.com/download/7420 (v2.0 for RBR Patch 1.01)
http://www.bhmotorsports.com/download/8424 (v3.0 for RBR Patch 1.02)

Thanks Racer_S :D


EDIT:
With the help of Camhack program, you need to adjust the camera views. You can also try my settings:

Once started for the first time, the camhack program will create two files: CONFIG.INI and VIEWS.CAM. Just overwrite these files with the files I give you in a zip file. The default view [1] is quite good for Subaru, I think. It will be loaded automatically, when you press[*] key at the start of the stage. There are some other views too, for some other cars. You can select them by pressing keys [2] to [5].

Note:
You always need to start the Camhack program first and leave it running in the background, before starting the game. Also, keep a backup of those two camhack files and try to avoid pressing [P] key while playing. This will reset the camera views into something, witch is unplayable in TripleHead. If you want to pause the game, use [ESC] instead.

I installed this CamHack and downloaded this profile for it, but I need it for 3840x1024.
The cars seem streched a lot.

What have I to change and how?

Hi,

You can choose your hotkeys in CamHack's Control Settings and adjust the FOV and aspect ratio by yourself.

Good evening,

Will your views zip (rbr.zip) work with CamHack 3.0?

Thanks

zip overwrite for CamHack.

Post by camkev »

Hi guys.

Cam Hack 3.0 installed and RBR .playing perfectly on my 3x Dell 17" monitors with Matrox Trip. 2Go digital. I have been manually adjusting view.

Where is the mentioned config.ini and views file to overwrite with your zip.

I looked in RBR root folder and all subs but nothing like it was created in RBR. Is it in a folder for CamHack itself?

Thanks as I'd love to check out your "preset" views.

Thanks. :D

Hi,

The files will be in Camhack folder after you have used the Camhack program for the first time.

Don't mean to dredge up an old topic or anything, but camhack3.0 seems to not function in win7 x64. it becomes un responsive after a few seconds and then crashes.

did you try the dx8vb fix?


heres the fix

first download dx8vb.dll from ONE of these places

http://www.dlldump.com/download-dll-files_...0/download.html

http://www.driverskit.com/dll/dx8vb.dll/692.html

http://www.thevbzone.com/d_DLL.htm


then copy to C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32
if you're using windows x64, you have to put the dx8vb.dll into C:WindowsSysWOW64

finally click start and where the text entry is type:
"regsvr32 c:windowssystem32dx8vb.dll"
-OR-
"regsvr32 c:windowssysWOW64dx8vb.dll"
without the parenthesis and press enter, if all went well you will see a 'succeeded' message

enjoy!

Well, I had the freezing after copying the dx8vb.dll file into the game folder, as the file could not be accessed from the system32 folder.. this may be because of my win7 x64 setup. Although, after installing RSRBR2010, the camhack began to work when started from the RSCenter... Odd.
