Colin Mcrae Rally 2.0 game crash when using 3440x1440, how to fix?

Open majorholland opened this issue 8 months ago • 6 comments

Anyone that can help me get Colin Mcrae Rally 2.0 working in 3440x1440 using the SilentPatchCMR2?

All resolutions up to 1920x1440 seem to work but when setting it higher the game gets a quick black screen and crashes. I am using a 3440x1440 monitor using a RTX 2080. NVIDIA screen resolution is set to 3440x1440 and other games seem to work on this resolution.

It's a known defect of D3D7 that resolutions with over 2048px width or height crash. You can use dgVoodoo2 with the game to circumvent this.

I transferred the issue to the CMR2.0 repository. https://github.com/CookiePLMonster/SilentPatch is for a GTA SilentPatch.

Thanks for the Quick reply! Do I still need the Silent Patch if using the dgVoodoo2? Or I only just need the game?

Yes. They're separate.

It works using the dgVoodoo2, thanks so much! Only issue I now have is whenever I start the game I get the notification "Setting configuration to defaults" and all settings are reset and user save file is removed.
