Widescreen Gaming Forum

Great (older) Tactical RTS. "Older", as in summer 2001 old...

Anybody know of any widescreen tweaks for this one? Just curious - I've been a little bored with the lack of new/interesting games of late, and I've been throwing in some oldies but goodies, amoung them: Homeworld (1 & 2); Ground Control (1); Baldur's gate series; Starcraft (!) and this one.

Man, what a blast I'm having!

Peace, Y'All,

Fester

P.S.

A link to a review of the game: http://www.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/hostilewatersantaeusrising/review.html :cheers

...the game - this nearly SIX YEAR-OLD game - supports it natively!

And I'm here to tell you it runs fine - no conflicts at all!

Damn - what happened to all these new game engines? *sigh*

Keep Gaming Y'All,

Fester :cheers

I own and love this game, but it doesn't play well on Windows 7... The best I could do with it was run it in an upscaled resolution, with vertical bars on either side (1280x1024 upscaled to 2560x1600).

Also, I haven't been able to download the 1.3 patch anywhere.

The GOG version is 1.03. Only $6 if that works for you.

Does the 1.03 version that GOG sells (cheaply, I'll admit) work with Windows 7, 64?

According to THIS POST it seems to work fine. I have not tested this myself.

Sadly it seems the game is Vert- widescreen. Understandable due to its age.
