Hi,
I'd like to play DMC3 on my LCD. Usually, when I plug my LCD to my PC, I just change the resolution in WinXP to 1280x720 (16:9).

Unfortunately, this resolution wasn't available in the game. (and no other widescreen-resolution either). I also tried to force the resolution by changing it in the INI-File but that didn't work either :?

Nope.

DMC3:SE gave me such a headache that I just bought the PS2 version the day of release. ;) That works in widescreen, dammit... why can't the PC version? :(

That's what I was thinking. I mean, if it wasn't ported from a console, it would be understandable that it doesn't support widescreen.

anyway, I managed to start it in 1152x864 (don't ask me how) without black bars on the side. Part of the bottom and the right side is cut off but it works...

thx man!

unfortunately it didn't work for me. The resolution is still 1152. Do you know if it works with Version 1.1?

I'll try it again now with Version 1.0

If you copy the EXE file that came with the RAR file it will be v1.0. It has to work since it worked for me and also for emanuel.

PLEASE! read the readme file contained in the RAR file !!
