Game request: The Great Escape (2003)
Hello. We already talked about this last year over at ThirteenAG's repository, but I want to have another go at it hoping you'll reconsider.
Even though, as you say, the Great Escape is HOR+, the max resolution is 1280x1024, and the character models and other game objects remain stretched out even if I force 1920x1080 through dgVoodoo or any other tools. The PS2 version of the game does have a widescreen fix for the PCSX2 emulator, which resolves all the aforementioned issues:
PCSX2 (widescreen fix OFF)
PCSX2 (widescreen fix ON)
Can something like what's seen in the image above be recreated for the PC version too? Right now, with dgVoodoo and everything, players are stuck with these fat character models:
This isn't even all which is wrong with the Great Escape's PC port. There are various glitches with lighting scattered across the game levels. Here are some examples:
- Various light sources disappear completely after reloading a savegame and don't reappear unless the level is restarted from the beginning:
A red lamp before reloading a save:

- Some game objects are overly dark in the PC version. On PS2, the lighting functions correctly:

Can at least a proper widescreen support (with object scaling or whatever it's called) be added for the PC version, to alleviate some of the issues that plague it?
