Protocultor: Many thanks Manu for the instructions! Although I have a question: my small text appear garbled. It looks like corrupt textures, you can see the border of every letter. See attached screens and look at the text. Is this normal, or did I do something wrong?
Apart from that, it looks great.

Manu270891: I just updated the instructions. The slowdowns are fixed now, check it out! Don't forget to uninstall the .sdb file, it is not needed anymore!

Manu270891: In dgVoodoo, change the "Texture Filtering" setting to "Force point sampled". It makes some textures not to upscale, but HUD elements like weapon selection are still upscaled and world textures look quite ugly.

Manu270891: You are doing something wrong. Try reinstalling the game and following the instructions. Did you uninstall the .sdb file that I posted in the old instructions? Maybe your antivirus is deleting some files.

Protocultor: It wasn't that, the problem continued, but you helped me find the culprit: it was the forced antialiasing. Disabling it solved the problem.
Thanks again for your guide.

Blaze72: So i've gone through it a 2nd time your instruction's Manu270891, Widescreen fix isn't working now

i'm using dgvoodoo to tell the game it's 1440x900 which is my max for my monitor. Nothing changes.

Blaze72: No Anti-virus isn't deleting the files, Seems i might have not grabbed the sdb file. Probably is the issue

oh well i can't even get that now

-----

i followed your step by step instructions that didn't include the sdp, So i have no idea what's going on

going for a 2nd run with your instructions.

Manu270891: True! Disabling MSAA maked the HUD letters' borders not to appear. And the game doesn't stutter for the first few seconds!
Manu270891: Did you check the updated guide? There is a list for the files that should be in your installarion directory. Check that out.
Manu270891: The .sdb file is not needed anymore, don't worry about it.

Manu270891: To anyone not being able to make the widescreen patch with my instructions:

1- Are you using the 32 bit version of the ASI Loader? You should NOT use the 64-bit version, it's for 64-bit games' exes, not 64-bit Windows.

2- Instead of renaming "dinput8.dll" to "winmm.dll", rename "dinput8.dll" to any of the names specified in the ThiteenAG's Ultimate ASI Loader download webpage. In my case, these are the names that are working: "dinput.dll", "dsound.dll" and "winmm.dll". "winmm.dll" might only work under Windows 10, so check that out.
