Widescreen Gaming Forum

I tried the demo and it did not have native widescreen support. Does anyone have the actual game (released this week)? Is there widescreen support? Thanks!

I'm guessing no one has picked it up. Did you get the config files (.ini or .cfg, usually) or the registry for a place to manually change the res?

i just got nascar simracing, and it does not support widescreen. There is a config.ini file, but it only has video and one number beside it. 7=1024x 768, and 12=1280x1024. I tried numbers in between, plus using halves, and didnt seem to make a difference.

You might try negative numbers, that worked on Thief 3.

tried negative numbers 1-12, and they all seem to set res at 640x480. Too bad, good lookin game. Searched for registry entries and no luck there either.

The retail version included 1280x720x32 as an option. To get it to work in demo...add "+allvideomodes" with space but not quotes at end of 3d setup executable. You should have 1280x720x32 now when you run 3d setup :D

hey crazy fred,

i tried your suggestion, but it didnt work for me on the retail version. I never had 1280x720 come up as a res for me.
One thing i did notice was after i add the +allvideomodes to my shortcut, the config.ini file in the game folder changed a bit. The videomode line in the config was set at 78, where as before it never went higher than 12, 12 being 1280x1024. So i changed it to 89 and i got 1280x720.(78 was 1024x768)
And in the 3d setup, i did get 2 new res's, 1152x864, and 1280x960.
Thanks for the idea, looks awesome now.

Glad some of what I suggested worked. Kinda fun to play on a big screen :D

I was unable to get the same results you guys were...any ideas?

NASCAR Racing Season does WS natively and is a superior game IMHO.
