did you not understand? I already mentioned TWICE that the edit MUST BE MADE DURING GAMEPLAY which you obviously neglected to read. I was able to make a small trainer with an auto script, but there are a few problems with it and thus I'm not happy with it. The issues are that the game gets zoomed in after restarting a mission and there are rendering issues along the far edges of the screen which are an eyesore.
Also, that's not gran turismo 2, its ridge racer type 4. I would appreciate it if stopped with the off topic critisim, that's not why I started this thread.
No need to jump down my throat just trying to get all the damn facts here. I'm not criticizing you, some old games are just not meant to have wide screen thus look awful when someone tries to override it. Its damn impressive you figured out wide screen hacks for the psx, I'm not criticizing you at all and I'm sorry if you took my comments the wrong way.
No I did not pay attention to the usernames sorry, and as for Gran turismo 2 I was talking about epsxes wide screen, they have a built in wide screen for some games on mobile and it looked awful. They just recently added it and its really bad. I still prefer the 4:3 because of off screen drawing issues.
As for restarting a mission causing zoom I didn't know about that. I know you said an exe edit and a cheat engine. The exe edit is easy because then it doesn't need to be scripted.
As for rendering near far edges of screen, that's what happened with gran turismo 2. Many old games that were not designed for widescrbeen stop rendering walls and objects at the outsides of the screen.
Some old games just can't have wide screen added to them without looking bad, but its always awesome to see someone trying, which its really impressive you got this far. The problem with trying to auto script it is how is the script supposed to know you are in game? Unless you use a key to run it?
Again, sorry if you took my comments as criticism, there's nothing to criticize about what you are doing. I honestly have a lot of respect for what you are trying to do thus trying to figure it out and see if there's any way I can help you figure out how to automate it.
Now here's one more question. I need to reinstall driver PC but if I remember correctly, the game menu is in 640x480 and can't be changed right? Does your auto script detect the resolution change or did you change one of the resolution options with the hex edit? I can see how a restart fucks it up as there is no screen resolution change there and it resets the cheat.
