The screenshots are saved to the main SilentHunterIII folder.

The cfg file should also work with your settings as below, as long as they are a valid screen resolution, can't make one up!! Quote:

Thanks a lot for your info. Now, 2 more questions and I am done here: 1.- Where can I find the Hi res Mod? 2.- Once you run the mod, where is the CFG file located? CapZap

@ CapZap1970, just out of curiosity, what video card do you have, nVidia or ATI?

Also seems that it not work on ATi cards (but I never tested this in truth, I have only a nvdia card). Cheers, Rubini.

Rubini:
If you tell me what you need to be done with the TGA's, I might be able to help you. I would gladly do it. As for the sun halo, I don't know what to do. It would also be nice that with all the great talents here this mod could be improved. CapZap

But don´t forget that a good amount of work is also needed on the menu_1024 file. Do you know it well? The Sun Halo is the most drawback for me, even that it work in some screen positions (its not totally absent).

I'm running an 880GT and unfortunately I'm getting a squished screen with a zoomed in effect :{

I was asked if I could look into this. I'm testing a different method, the grey area of hacking an exe file. So I tried it just for sh*ts and grins and the game will accept any resolution it's 'told' to use - I chose 1680 X 1050 just to see if it would work. It currently works on the into screens but program aborts when it tries to get to main loading screen (I'm pretty sure it's because I haven't 'told' it to use the new screen resolution of 1680 X 1050 in that part of the exe file). But anyways here's proof that you can hack the exe file and make it do whatever you want it to do (I'll apologize for the LARGE image but I want to show that the game is running in windowed mode @ 1680 X 1050. No high res mod enabled either, this is strictly a hacked exe file doing what it's told to do - see red arrow in top left to verify screen resolution):
I'll tell the next part of the exe file to use the new screen resolution I specified and see what happens next. It should work. EDIT: didn't work. Abortion is caused by Access Violation when writing to BAADF0ED. Ok, this one's going to be tough. Anyone feel like helping out? Stuff like this takes time to figure out. This abort happens right after the red bar gets completely full on the main splash screen (the Silent Hunter III splash screen after into and movie).

Access violation problem fixed. Now I just have to tell DirectX to use the new video resolution. I have it so that your current desktop screen resolution is what it uses for the game. You'll notice lots of black areas around the game screen in the below screenie and that's because DirectX isn't being told to use the desktop screen resolution - it's using the fixed 1024 X 768 that the devs TRIED to lock it to Below is a desktop screen resolution of 1600 X 900:
software is wonderful, you can make it do anything you want Hardware, that can be tricky.... |
