citywokguy - do you have the patches.ini file for NFSU2? I cannot find it anywhere and the stretching is really bothering me.

Hit the Print Screen button, it's labeled Prnt Scrn on my 9200. That will put a screenshot on your clipboard, then go to an imaging program create a new file and paste.

How do I get my I8600 to play NFS U2 in 1280 X 800 resolution? I saw the "patches.ini" file but I am completely confused on what to do with it. Can someone please help me?

my NFSU2 runs great with that but for some reason I just realized... My i8600 running NFSU2 have better quality graphics then those pics... no jagged edges no nothing and I still get REALLY REALLY playable game frames. If you ask me to guess on FPS, i would say around 60 - 90 on all high

You will also need the Wogg's widescreen hack and a cracked nfsu2.exe
u can see the details here:
http://www.widescreengamingforum.com...opic.php?t=558

Widescreen resolutions like 1280x768, 1280x800, 1680x1050, e.t.c. will be available once you finish patching the cracked nfsu2.exe using Wogg's widescreen hack.

So what is the exact resolution are you running and what are the detail settings like vsync, motion blur, over contrast, FSAA/AF etc are u running? Really interested to know how you get it all max out while still manage to get a 60 - 90 fps count. Could u please use the Fraps to measure the exact max/avg/min fps between any map of your choice and see how it compares with mine?

Thanks citywokguy! The game looks so much better at 1280 X 800 then 1024 X 768. About your asking for the framerate, I usually get between 50-60 FPS at 1280 X 800 with most options up all the way but anti-aliasing at 2X and anistropic filtering on 4X. There is something that I noticed in the game options to help your framerate though. It seems that there are some settings that have no effect on the visual quality, however they do effect performance. The settings are:

World Detail: put on 3rd level
Road Reflection Detail: also on 3rd level
Tinting: turn off
Over Bright: turn off
Enhanced Contrast: turn off

Hope this helps. My system spece are in my signature

Cool...but I really like to leave both the over bright and enhanced contrast option on because those are really the candies that make the game different from the other racing games.

Wow....you mean like 6x AA + 16x AF? That is really awesome. Will really give a shot tonight and see how my mr9700 can do considering that it's 100Mhz plus higher core speed than the mr9600
