tamaheavy.blogg.se - Colin mcrae rally 2

is anyone still posting in those boards? I don't know, but let's find out.The Colin McRae racing game series was hugely successful when it first launched in 1998 with Colin McRae Rally, and Colin McRae Rally 2 is the sequel to that first game that redefined an entire genre of racing games. On the plus side, the game will never ask for a CD now.Ī short gameplay video showing the game in proper 16:9:

Support for non-Full installation methods has been removed.

You can select any value in 30.0 - 150.0 range.

Field of View can now be adjusted via the INI file.

Now, if you have more than one region installed, you can easily switch between them. Depending on the game version, it has different region directories included in CountrySpecific directory.

Regions can now be switched via the INI file.

The game used to create a log file in C:\ which would often make the game require Administrator privileges to run.

Logging has been removed for good (since it would never log anything anyway).

This makes the game fully portable and also fixes an occasional issue, where the game would not launch without Administrator privileges (due to an incorrect way the game was reading registry keys).

All dependencies on registry keys have been removed.

When playing in windowed mode (borderless or not), the game can handle Alt+Tab properly now.

Both windowed and borderless can be toggled via SPCMR2.ini file. Fullscreen borderless windowed mode does not have any of these issues, and looks identical to real fullscreen. This change gets rid of a DirectDraw bug on Windows 8 and newer, which would make the game run in a window even if fullscreen is requested, also affecting performance negatively.

The game now defaults to borderless windowed mode.

That means the game will not be horribly stretched when playing in widescreen anymore.

The game now handles ALL aspect ratios properly.

Having messed around with numerous games by now, I decided to go back to one of the first games I ever played and attempt to adapt it to modern standards more. Hey there! First of all, note it's NOT a topic about the mobile port remastered CMR, but rather about the original PC title.
