I was noticing that all of the AGP Changelings are out of stock now. Did I miss my chance, or is there another batch being made in the future?

I'm concentrating on a new project. no cards stated as available so far. In a few weeks some updates will be done on the website.

Hi all, Has anyone here managed to get Star trek Voyager elite force running on the wide driver.

For some reason the game just crashes after the intro, I've never managed to get into the main menu screen.
The game is not corrupted because when I drop in my V2 SLI it runs perfect.
Has anyone had an experience with this game.

My rig
P4 3.4
Win98se
512mb ram
V6000 PCI
Directx 8.1
Wide Driver 1.1

I can check later, game on my todo list...

Update, doesnt run for me either.
I tried a couple of openGl drivers, mesafx63, sage, wicked, original latest... Some atleast get in the game, but then crash. Cant help you at this point , you can try a different driver.

Thanks Dolenc,
I pretty much tried everything as well,

In the process of loading up games on my rig that work with the widescreen driver and post it here, So people have a reference of what works.

Got some very interesting finds.

For instance,
M1 Tank platoon 2 works but only in 4:3, got it up to 1280x960. (Need to update the game version 1.2 or the game will crash)

Pretty cool actually.
I know NGlide can have different aspect ratios.

Hey Dolenc,
Any chance you can give me a rundown on how you got your system shock 2 running in widescreen.

I have modified the Cam.cfg with different resolutions.
However it never seems to stick, I just get a warning as I enter the game (The required screen mode could not be set)

its definitely trying to do something because image is distorted and stretched.

Patch the game to v2.3, then use this patch.

Instructions for the patch:
- Extract the archive to your game installation directory
- Run DarkWidescreen.bat
- Follow the instructions to input your desired resolution
- You will be asked for a fov modification. This allows you to change your field of view. If you don't know what this means just enter 100
- After patching is completed successfully you can run the game's exe to play

Thanks for your help Dolenc.

Very much appreciated.

Using a retrotink-4k, haven't got it dial in perfectly.

Some pic's
One in 1080 and the other in 720 all upscale to 4K on my monitor. It's a little bit washed out. Still looks good though.
