NFS:U2 Resolutions Higher Than 1024x768

[tetuyeda]

Anyway to get the resolution higher than 1024x768..? If I try to go any higher it just glitches out and goes back to 1024.

doesn't seem like a sucky comp eh?

[nomis_nehc]

check your drivers? that's the only thing that can be toyed with anyhow...

Well, I think the first question to ask is does your monitor support that resolution.

You certainly are a "bright" one.

It goes down to two things, combination of your graphic card and monitor. If your monitor supports that higher resolution but not your graphic card, it would not work and vice versa.

Check your documentations for those information else if you don't know how to. Post your graphic card and monitor model as well.

NFSU:1 runs fine at 1280x1024, but NFSU:2 won't go higher than 1024x768...

i'd surmise it's either drivers, or or settings in windows for the drivers.

it's can't be much more than that

it looks to be that way...i've tried the 66.93's and the 67.02's but both won't let me go over 1024...i'm trying to find some older nvidia drivers... and trying the 70.41's now

try turning AA off and putting vsync on in the options and then setting to a higher res.

if that don't work post back

[tetuyeda]

nothing, still won't go any higher

edit: anyone else with a gf6 having problems?

Looks like a game issue. Found the fix

In Registry Editor, go to My Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHI

NE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES\Need for Speed Underground 2 and change the key that says g_RacingResolution.

0 = 640x480

1 = 800x600

2 = 1024x768

3 = ??? - Crashes for me

4 = 1280x1024

5 = 1600x1200 (confirmed)

6 = ??? - Haven't tested

Works fine on my other system with 6800 GT. I'm playing it at 1280x960 there and on this system playing at 1600x1200.

Will editing this file allow me to add non-standard resolutions? The native resolution of my laptop is 1680x1050, and I'd like to run it at that.

[tetuyeda]

if you have a nvidia card you could add a custom resolution...i read at nvnews that that is one way to bypass the glitch

I had the same issue on my TFT and used the fix that is on nvnews to sort it out.

It looks like some games have trouble picking up a TFT screens supported resolutions when a DVI cable is used. I have the same issue with Battlefield Vietnam at the moment.
