EA Superbike V3 patch out!!!

OK, now I don't hate EA quite so much anymore ;)... Check out www.voodooextreme.com for the link. I'm downloading it as I type. Finally I'll get to enjoy this game at 800x600 again! This and the fun I'm having with SCGT have restored a little hope for EA and racing games - as long as it's not NASCAR-related ;)... PS SCGT is down to bargain prices now - it's $20 well spent. Tossing the cars through the corners is almost as much fun as GPL. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Didn`t work for my voodoo3 2k. You can move the slider to the left and select 800x600 allright but makes no difference to the resolution of the game. The dash still covers half the screen and is defintely not 800 x 600. What now ? ---------==========================------- \ / \LiverpoolFC - "Through the wind and the rain" ---/

I've got a V3 2000 too, so I'm not sure what problem you're having. I've got the next-to-latest drivers. I know that the windscreen/guages size don't change at all as resolution changes, as I had the game at 800x600 when I had a V2 and it looked the same as at 640x480. And it's *definitely* running at 800x600 on my PC - I can do a screen geometry change on my monitor and verify it's at 800x600. Not to mention that it obviously looks better ;). Have you selected the correct monitor in Windows, and does it support 800x600? HTH! > >OK, now I don't hate EA quite so much anymore ;)... > >Check out www.voodooextreme.com for the link.

Err... I can't see it on VoodooExtreme. There is one for Castrol Honda Superbike, but I can't see one for the EA game. Help!

Ok I guess it is 800 x 600 then...it just, to me, looks the exact same as 640x480. I would have expected the windscreen/ guages to occupy a little less of the screen. It really needs 1024 x768. Anyway after some more time with GP 500 I`m realizing it`s a far better game I think.

: Ok I guess it is 800 x 600 then...it just, to me, looks the exact : same as 640x480. I would have expected the windscreen/ guages to : occupy a little less of the screen. It really needs 1024 x768. Anyway : after some more time with GP 500 I`m realizing it`s a far better game : I think. Why would the windscreen and gauges change? They are still the same polygons, just drawn at a higher resolution. After all, my car in GPL doesn't get smaller when I switch resolution. Look for some diagonal lines on the screen to see if you can see a difference in resolution. Stephen
