big shmooz Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 Thanks Kraw. It worked. I really appreciate this. Here is my review. The picture definitely looks sharper at 1600 x 1200 than with the 1280 x 1024. However I did notice a slight teeny bit of stutter (very slight) on the ball when being thrown across the diamond & even a bit on a throw from second to first. It was only a slight stutter though & in regular gameplay probably almost unnoticable. I use a Nvidia GEForce 6800 ultra video card with all my video settings maxed. 8X anti aliasing & 16x Anistropic filtering. Plus, all my video game settings are maxed out too. Hence I feel it looks decent enough in 1280 x 1024 where the ball movement on throws is literally smooth as silk that I am personally feeling that I am not going to up it to 1600 x 1200. This is strictly a personal preference & since it looks so good at the lesser resolution anyway, I feel the compromise of even the teeny slight stutter is (for me personally) not worth the extra resolution increase. With that said, this discovery is really cool & I thank you Kraw for telling me how to do it. If I personally want to play in 1600 x 1200 in the future that option will be there now that you helped me.

Campo09 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I know this is probably a stupid question, but is there a way to make the game widscreen if you monitor isnt?

pdub Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Yes, the same way described in this thread. Hex editing the mvp2005.exe file. It would be a waste of monitor space, though. Also, your monitor would have to support the resolution.

Campo09 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 pdub, how do i do this, i have a regular 4:3 ratio, but i want a widescreen but it crashes everytime i try to load it, any help, S Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/15410-mvp-in-widescreen/page/4/#findComment-284248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdub Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 You must have hex edited it wrong. Did you check the widescreengaming forum tutorial? In your hex editor search/find the value - 8002 0000 E001. If it doesn't support spaces then just do it without the spaces. Once it finds it, check to see if there is another one just like it. There should be two almost right after each other like I highlighted in the pic. Each resolution is in the file twice, one after the other. One is for the actual displaying of the resolution, the other is for what is displayed at the video options screen. 640x480 - 8002 0000 E001 800x600 - 2003 0000 5802 1024*768 - 0004 0000 0003 1280*1024 - 0005 0000 0004 In the pic, it shows 0005 0000 0003 because this is the resolution I changed to 1280x768. You can change any of the resolutions you want. I would suggest changing one that you don't play with that way if you mess up, you can go back to standard.

Sidewinder Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 How about 1360x768 or 1366x768 for my 37" HDTV? That is the native resolution. Would it be 0006 0000 0003? Thanks Currently, I play at 1024x768 but in stretch mode to fill the widescreen. Still lools great though.

pdub Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 1360x768 - 5005 0000 0003. Your video card has to support that resolution, so make sure it does. Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/15410-mvp-in-widescreen/page/4/#findComment-284566 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Campo09 Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 pdub, what do i overwrite it with, my monitor maxs resolution is 1028*768 my video card however is very good so im sure iut supports anything, if i wanted to make one 1600* 900 how which files would i overwrite?

pdub Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 You don't overwrite any files. Its in the mvp2005.exe. You have to hex edit the file, then save it. If your monitor supports only a 1024x768 max resolution(thats a pretty old monitor), then you don't want to use anything bigger than that, otherwise you can break it. I still don't know why you would want a widescreen resolution with a standard 4:3 monitor. The game only stretches the screen and players look short and chubby. There is no benefit. You will be wasting space at the top and bottom of the screen where the black bars end up once you get widescreen working. You can try 1024x640 - 0004 0000 8002 1024x600 - 0004 0000 5802 848x480 - 5003 0000 E001 960x640 - C003 0000 8002 Link to comment https://www.mvpmods.com/forums/topic/15410-mvp-in-widescreen/page/4/#findComment-284619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sidewinder Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I edited my resolution to my native 37" LCD HDTV 16x9, which is 1366x768 at 60Hz and it worked like a charm. Before, I had to run at 1024x768 and while it looked very good, now it looks tighter and more real estate horizontally too. It is really smoother looking on pans and the stadiums just feel larger. It is very similar to watching a ESPN HD broadcast now!

sask3m Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 strangely enough hh 2004 supports true widescreen and i got to say it looks pretty darn good in 1680x1050.

Sidewinder Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 There appears to be a little stretching at 1360x768 on my 42" HDTV but it doesnt matter at all. It looks great! With everything so much bigger now, I really prefer a little bit of a pulled back fielding view, because you can see much more of the field and stadium atmosphere. Makes for a great MVP experience.

edm Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I just order a 22" ws monitor this one here. it looks like the default res will be 1680 x 1050. Does anyone have an edited exe from the 07 mod using that resolution they can send me? I looked at that guide, but figured it would be easier if someone already had an edited one since I dont really understand hex stuff thanks. please pm me if you can help.

philliesphan18 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 I have no idea what to do either. I have a 24" HD monitor and how do I run MVP widescreen on it? (Could someone make an installer?)

TxDodger73 Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Kraw, If the Hex data embeded within the .exe can be edited would it be possibly to change the coding for jersey's, adding or deleting the names on the back of the jersey's? Of course finding where that data is locating is another story.

edm Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Just got my new monitor today and I was able to get mvp running at 1680x1050 with the hex edit. It looked good, but I don't think I could get used to the stretched out effect. I the tried running at 5:4 (with bars on the side), but for some reason, I can't get 1280x1024 to work. However, I was able to get 1360x1024 to work. Not sure why 1280x1024 won't work. Anyway, I hexed mvp to support that res and it seems to be working ok. It's still not the correct 5:4 aspect ratio, but it's much better than 1680x1050 as far as reducing the stretching.
