Custom resolution?

Postby Cla » Sat Oct 08, 2011 1:45 am

Were there any mods ever made for custom resolution? Or perhaps there's some kind of way I can change the res without a mod? Can you HEX edit your own resolutions into the launcher? If so, I'd like to replace 640x480 with 1366x768. (or really it can replace any of the default options, I don't care) But I am kind of noobish at this. Any tips please? Thanks.

Ok this respatcher isn't working. Even though I know I'm using the RELOADED.EXE, (isn't that the one this site shares here?) I keep getting told "ONLY WORKS WITH RELOADED.EXE" when I try to run the respatcher. Can someone point me to a cracked .exe that actually works with this respatcher?

EDIT: I even tired this .exe that was supposedly uploaded by RELOADED himself:

And the respatcher STILL says ONLY WORKS WITH RELOADED.EXES. WTF man?

But I can't. It says

ONLY WORKS ON RELOADED EXES!

Press any key to continue...


I push a key to continue, but then the program just exits.

What HEX editing program do you all recommend? I have XVI32 and I'm just not understanding how to search by the offsets you listed above. I know how to find specific HEX values, but either I just don't understand what is meant by "offset" or XVI32 doesn't have a feature to search by offsets.

Ok, I think my problem was that I was editing the wrong file. I assumed it was Launcher.exe that needed to be edited. So I was confused when my attempts to find the offset 0x000D876E were failing. (hence my last post) But then I just gave THUG2.exe a try and I was able to find the offset you mentioned.

So what exactly are this offsets you pointed me to anyway?

0x000D876E = 20 (so decimal 32?)
0x000D878A = 58 (so decimal 88?)

How many bytes after these offsets matter? Also, I don't fully understand what exactly these offsets are controlling. The numbers 32 and 88 don't fit with anything resolution-related. I'm all the more confused cause I would think that the res is controlled by Launcher.exe instead of THUG2.exe.


And thanks for your help so far. I know I've been nothing but noobish so far, but I am trying to learn.

I can't believe I missed that. Ok, so I got it running in 1366x768. Sweet. Thanks for the help. But now I have to figure out why the Widescreen option isn't showing up.
