For some reason when i loaded the game, it's in widescreen automatically. I didn't do anything. I tried to get the solution at Guru3d, but the link is gone. And i have to d/l the RAR program to get squizzy (spelling)...however, how is it in widescreen without me doing anything? And, by the way, this is everygame i play.

Can it be that the resolution is just stretched to full screen? It's not like with CRT's that when you select a smaller resolution that you get a small image in the center of the screen.

And btw, that solution at Guru3d is WSGF's solution, they just stole it from us. :evil:

I imagine all games are stretched automatically on my screen, is that good or bad?...BTW, I can't get into that guy squizzy or whatever's site for that patch, won't let me. I can get to his main page here at wsgf with all his solutions, but when i click on rb6, nothing...
damn....

It's no problem if it stretches, it's just ugly. :lol:

And I forgot that squizzy is redoing his site so I guess he took his patchers offline. I guess you have to wait some time for him to put it up again.

Edit: I found his patch, it's on another page: http://www.squ1zzy.nl/Patches/Rainbow_Six_Vegas.htm
You still can't download it though :(

you can use the originally made .bin file replacements which you can find in [this thread]

Work fine.

Paddy's second post also has a link to Squizzy's res patcher hosted locally at WSGF

I havent used the patch, but are you running it from the same directory as the game?

From the "Solution" post ... :wink:

Instructions in the readme ...

Place the patcher in the folowing folder:
C:Documents and Settings%username%My DocumentsUbisoftR6Vegas
Open the patcher and select the resolution you want and press the 'patch' button.
It will make a copy of the original file before applying the patch.

Far enough off for it not to work ... :P :lol: ... the point is ...
The answer was there ... where "Solutions" usually are ... in the section marked ... "Widescreen Confirmed Solutions - PC"
After someone goes to the trouble of linking to it ... it just needed to be read ... :wink:

Very true :)

Reading the readme and finding out where to drop the files does help afterall ;).

Yes,...put the patch in ubisoft/rainbow six vegas...when I double click the penguin, and put the res @ 1900x1200, and hit the "patch" button, it says....."file not found"

You are not being very clear ... there is no such folder as ...
ubisoft/rainbow six vegas

Just to clear things up ... is it in this folder ...

C:Documents and Settings%username%My DocumentsUbisoftR6Vegas

... ?

Are you sure youve got it in the Documents and Settings folder, and not in Program Files?
