Alright, I've downloaded the clone now and launched with DT Pro 4.10.02 VIDE, STILL CRASHES. Thus, the crack is definitely fine - its something else.

I did up my resolution to 1600x900, and although I took a bit of a frame rate hit, the black bars are gone! Ah to enjoy this game in all its glory. Now to just solve the crashes Sad


You aren't enjoying the game anymore then if you were to just use a standard resolution on your monitor. You just changed to a non-standard 16:9 resolution. You aren't seeing anything more, or anything different.


I know...but the black bars are gone. That's what counts. Can't fucking stand them heh.

Right. It's better to have a stretched image than to have black bars. I bet you watch movies in the same way too, because it doesn't fill your entire LCD Razz

Yea, actually I do. A little streched image is worth it, its not that bad. And it's certainly less annoying than having over 1/4th of your screen space be wasted

The black lines are really thin. It's more 1/8 of the screen.
Here there are some screenshots:

EDIT: I am running the game on 1024x768 (on a 19") and the black borders are bigger than in the previously posted screenshots. They cover about 1/5 of the screen (added I mean)


Strange. You have a 5:4 or a 4:3 monitor? In 5:4 the black lines should be bigger.

It's better mouse or joypad for this game?

Yes this isn't the final version.
In some german game magazine they said the black bars will be removed in the final version of the game and since this is still "blackbarred" it's not even final.

Also, what do people mean with Black Bars? I have heard many people talk about it but dont know what that means. Is that on Vista or something? Glitch? Or what are they?

It would happen if you weren't running at a wide screen resolution

800x600
1024x768
1280x1024
1600x1200

Although if you try to run those res's on your screen i think it will just try to stretch it anyways. The issue would only occur for people that do not have wide screen

Get a widescreen monitor and there will be no bars or very little bars. There is AA option.

16:10 is widescreen. You are suggesting that we go out and buy a 16:9 monitor which is only good for movie watching. I can't even imagine how painful it would be to use a 16:9 monitor for anything else. 16:10 is allready fairly height limited, 16:9 even more so.

Wrong. Black Borders=PAL

Just select a 16:9 resolution and there won't be any borders.
f.e. 1280x720. Looks good on widescreen monitors, stretched on 4:3 monitors.
