It must be seeing that the Xbox is from a PAL region. Try changing the region code to 1 using configmagic and see how you go.

Yeah, I think I'll give that a go.

This is really strange.

Ran Configmagic and changed the region from 4 to 1, played MoH:EA and it was in prog scan. Changed the region back to 4, tried it again and it was still in prog scan.

I can't explain it.

Gret stuff silvermax - you're on fire!

Post em in the 480p hex list thread wink.gif , not as many people read this one.

If you need any more info look for a number of my posts. A little trick i found out is if you find a game giving you grief with patching only to either 480i or 480p and not autoselect (00) is to nop the complete line out with 90's biggrin.gif

btw the holy grail is to 'widescreen' soulcalibur II for 720p mode. I tried again today and still having no luck even found a new setvideomode to patch but kept kicking me back to dash for some reason sad.gif

well, it looks dificult, becouse the game already recongnizes the 720p mode and uses it. Do you know another game sucessfull situation where the widescreen can be forced?

The situation with soul caliber II in 720 is that it is cropped 4:3. I was thinking that it was running 10x11 (add / or 100h) but now i think about it it might just require a render buffer width being changed from 640 to 1280. Might give it another look over at some point.

click the flower icon in IDA and then right click the window if need and bring up all of the files and select the xbox flirt v2 final.

Sorry for the poor explanation but dont have it in front of me on this pc

your explanation was ok. Thnx

by the while, i am working on the scalibur ii think. Looks very dificult becouse theres a lot of data involved in the 4:3 to widescreen, like the angle (fov) of the camera, etc etc.... lets see...

Did anything come of getting Star Wars Republic Commando running in prog scan when set to widescreen?

Just a thought but would it be possible to use some of these methods being used here to fix some of the PAL games that have Hi Def or ProScan issues? For example the PAL version of Enter The Matrix will not run when 720p and 1080i is enabled on your Xbox however the NTSC version runs the game in HD fine.

Another problem is the PAL versions of GTA games. Although they play in 480p they are all screwed up to look at on screen.
