Hello !

Project Gotham Racing 2 - 576p/720p/1080i:




Spoiler
Hi again guys !

So after a lot of work I have been able to play PGR2 in:

720x576p [Pal only]

720x480p [NTSC] *some issue on track with rain.
1280x720p [NTSC] *some issue everywhere, but garage work good.
1920x108ip [NTSC] *some issue everywhere, but input joypad doesn't work, strange......

And on the Original Xbox.

For being able to play you need:

AV HD pack + 480P; 720p 1080i; activated in your dash + Widescreen enabled !Important

Here the link for all .xbe modified + html file explaining how I have done this, don't forget to back up your xbe.

Zip & Rar Archives = 4mo

Link updated (add the 1080i xbe and 1080i instruction)

For those who don't want to download here is a list of what modification I have done:



Code:

[this is a quick set-up, for a complete setup, refer to the download link]

Your original XBe: 480p
-----------------------------
80 02 00 00 C7 86 30 03 00 00 E0 01
E0 01 00 00 68 80 02


Now take hex editor and replace those numbers by


XBe: 720x480p
-----------------------------
D0 02 00 00 C7 86 30 03 00 00 E0 01
E0 01 00 00 68 D0 02

or

D0 02 00 00 C7 86 30 03 00 00 40 02
40 02 00 00 68 D0 02

or

XBe: 1280x720p
-----------------------------
00 05 00 00 C7 86 30 03 00 00 D0 02
D0 02 00 00 68 00 05

or

OTOGI - 720p/1080i :




Spoiler
Hi again guys !

After some night work I did achieve the 720p hex edit on OTOGI, yeah, you heard it right, we can play OTOGI in HD 720p in the original xbox (2001).


Here what's you wanted, here the damn big pics:




















Spoiler

Ok, you need:

1) A softmoded/cracked Xbox.
2) A Ram upgraded xbox (128mb).
3) A software for unlocking RAM limit on .xbe, called "Delimit".
4) Make the hex edit.
5) Patch with HDD path.


Also, I need to precise that my version is still new, lot of graphical bug need to be fixed, like you can see in the picture above.

Here the Hex Edit codes: 480p --> 720p [PAL .xbe]

Replace those:



Code:

Here some pictures about the 1080i version:
Need to make some investigation why the character blend with the screen, maybe FOV related ?

this is awesome!
Now if only Conker could run at 720p...
Or even Kameo (the beta), it would be possible to compare it with the x360 version.

I may work on OR, not yet for VC3.


Thank you Borman for the Otogi Video =)

Also, I precise that the latest 720p xbe from Otogi is not optimized at all, I have forced the game to render all texture to 512x512, so you have 720p resolution + texture upscale ( Tex.Up doesn't change anything until I manually swap texture from 128 to 512 in the game folder), so you may see a very bad framerate sometimes.

I will fix this when I have the time, but to let you know, yes, Otogi can be fully playable at 720p.
