Could someone please post a picture of what it looks like on vga compared to rca thanx.

The working list is so that people dont have to check the working titles, although there are probably too many to list.  The thing is while looking over threads i noticed someone said Blood Rayne 2 didn't work, but it worked for me.  The best format would be something like www.hdtvarcade.com but with another column.  There was a similar one with user comments.

On the other note, I wanted to see a comparison about the hd vs non-hd output, however its really hard to get screen captures.

I can try, however the problem is also that i can't display a non-hd signal on my monitor without an upconverter (which i have), but that doesn't accuratly display the picture.

My projector can accept both s-video and hd signals, so i'll try and get a good comparison from that over the weekend, i'll post it as a new topic.  There really needs to be something like that since i couldn't find anything when i looked.

i been wantin to do this for some time (for my car when my friends get in and they can use my 17in computer lcd). but i have a version 1.3, does it really matter?

I heard two different stories, bout this.

You can do VGA up to either 1.4 or 1.5 (can't remember which) with iND-BiOS 5001 VGA.

Another game that comes up green...

XIII

Perhaps one could go in and change a value or two in the .xbe to get rid of the green wash effect. Some games (Metal Slug 3, Hitman Contracts, etc.) require the 480p HEX change to display on a VGA setup. I wonder if you could do the same with a game that does not require the 480p HEX change to get rid of the green? Just a thought.

Thanks.

that would be awesome, and when i get home, i'm going to have to hex edit the dashboard.  I never knew i could get that in 480p.  There really needs to be an updated tutorial thats extensive on this vga mod stuff since its such a great mod and so easy to do.  cheap also.

Cheap for some I guess, my VGA setup ran me over $100. That includes new HD cable and a 21" CRT monitor. Bloody monitor weighs 60+ lbs! It bows the coffee table it sits on! After 10 minutes on the VGA setup, I will never go back to a TV display. I don't care if the TV is 20 feet tall, VGA is king.

The MS Dashboard and many other non-hd games.
