HELP !!! Please, resolution and Nvidia sun...

Stary Wuj · 05-08-07, 04:26 PM

Hello

There was nice info on Communitymanuals site about higher resolution and
"real" sun for Nvidia cards. My old link is dead.
I remember, that Net Framework 1.1 and
Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit are indispensably for this.
I have all files, but have no idea how to make it :-)

Can someone help me ?

Sorry about my english like always :-)

Best Regards

Please :-)

"real" Nvidia sun means sun with soft, blurry edges on Nvidia cards....

Best Regards

Are you talking about a sun mod ? :hmm:

I FOUND IT :-)

From German forum:

Here's how:
Download and install the Application Compatibility Toolkit from Microsoft.

After it is installed, on the start menu, go to "All Programs/Microsoft Application Compatibility Toolkit 4.0/Tools" and run the Compatibility Administrator.

When the program opens, make sure New Database is highlighted under Custom Databases, and click the Fix button.

In the "Name of program to be fixed" box, type SH3. Now, click the browse button, and select the sh3.exe in your SH3 install directory.

Click Next.

Under "Operating System Modes" select None.

Click Next.

In the "Compatibility Fixes" box, check DelayDLLInit, and click the Parameters button.
In the "Command Line" box, type d3d9.dll and click OK. (You can click the "Test Run" button to make sure it is working.)

Click Next.

Click Finish.

Click the Save button, name it SH3, and click OK.

On the File menu, select Install.

Close the Compatibilty Administrator.

Enjoy SH3.

Again - changing resolution was complicated much more when You have
WinXP with SP2. This method is solution, and it works :-)
