OgXHD 720p 16:9 success stories

Going to start going through games people have tried to bump up the resolution or set to widescreen yet. I've got a spreadsheet here with 250+ games people have tested but there are still some big ones out there...

Here is my spreadsheet with results for 250+ games:

Still looking for help on getting Halo: Combat Evolved to display in 720p

Crimson Skies: Black Screen

MechAssault: Works
Console: v1.3 Softmodded
Dashboard: XBMC in 720p
Ram: 64mb
CPU: 733MHz
Capture Device: AverMedia Game Capture C281
Notes: 480p and 720p must be enabled in MS dash. Did not work with only 720p enabled.
Comments: Works, gameplay seems fine, menu and hud not resized. Smoke or fire cause lag, but not sure if game does that without mod. Reverts to 480p after exiting or completing a mission.
Used OgXHD with 16:9, 720p databases checked along with Auto 720p and Window View in Aggresive mode to patch XBE.

 

Magnifique...wonderful...
Where is the spreadsheet? Work for SEGA games like OR2, OR2 coast to caost or panzer dragoon....try with Virtua Cop 3 (128 mo needed....)

 

I'll post the spreadsheet soon, still working on it and making it look good.

 

Really...please share it fast....Outrun 2 JP and Outrun 2 CtC 2006 in 720p...oh my God....work with Virtua cop 3?

News please...

 

This app is older now, go try it and see for yourself. Most likely, it doesnt work.

 

I try one time a long time ago with OR2....it's seems not work with....but maybe I do a mistake....

 

It probably just doesnt work with it. Its a very brute force tool, when it works its cool, but more often than not it will break something.

 

Yeah, give it a shot if you want results.

Have tried the following games with no real success:

Dynasty Warriors 3 - Black Screen
Metal Slug 3 - Black Screen
Star Wars KOTOR - Boots into 720p, but freezes when loading a level. Think it would work with 128mb ram.

 

Few games to report success that I've tried so far (v1.4 xbox with 128mb ram + 1.4ghz cpu and all games are ntsc with XBMC dashboard)
- Manhunt (fmv are still 640x480 in top left corner, very minor dips in frame rate) [Note, you need the 480p patch in the xbe for 720p patch to work, otherwise it only displays the top left 640x480 screen in black and white]
- Simpsons Hit and Run (fmv squished into center)
- Grand Theft Auto III (widescreen must be disabled in display settings or you will get double screen + slowdowns)
- Grand Theft Auto Vice City (same as GTA III with only minor slowdowns)
- Simpsons Road Rage (some hud elements are messed up)
- Crash Tag Team Racing (widescreen must be enabled or it wont boot, some slowdowns)
- Crash Twinsanity (some slowdowns)
- Project Gotham Racing
- Project Gotham Racing 2 (in game hud still in 640x480 positions)
- Crazy Taxi 3 (only playable with 1st map otherwise lots of slowdowns, if you pause the game it freezes)
- Max Payne (some slowdowns)

Some games that don't work
- Crash Bandicoot the Wrath of Cortex (only displays 640x480 in black and white screen)
- Jet Set Radio Future (heavy slowdowns, unplayable)
- Shenmue 2 (heavy slowdowns, unplayable)
- Grand Theft Auto San Andreas (black screen)
- Need for Speed Underground 1 & 2 & Most Wanted (freezes on boot)
- Metal Gear Solid 2 (only displays 640x480 in black and white screen)
- Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 (only displays 640x480 in black and white screen)
- Halo 1 & 2 (only displays 640x480 in black and white screen)
- The Punisher (black screen)
- Forza Motorsport (still only 480p screen)
- Amped 1 (only displays 640x480 in black and white screen)
- Star Wars Battlefront 2 (black screen)
- Splinter Cell 1 & Pandora Tomorrow & Chaos Theory (Reverts to 480p before gameplay)

That's all I remember at the moment and you can add it to your spreadsheet, tell me which games you'd like me to test and I'll try them out in my free time.

 

Wow, wait, so you got Shenmue 2 to actually display in 720p? Regardless of it playing smooth or not at least you were able to see it. Can you remember the settings you used to get it to even boot? People who tried this before only got pure black screen, so I would like to at least test it out for myself.

Oh so nice....how to patch it? Did you try for Outrun2 JP, it's a very nice version with some of run from daytonaUSA 2 and Scud race.
Black screen for OR2 CtoC 2006? It's the same patch for US, EUR or JP version?
Did you try Virtua cop 3?

Shenmue 2 runs at 720 using this tool? It gives me a black screen, what settings did you use?

I tried patching it manually and all I got was a black screen.

Most games run quite decently patched to 720p, but many games will hang when the console runs out of ram on a stock 64 mb console.

Anyway I'll post a buch of screens of games I tested with this tool.

 

I need to see about patching PES5 to 720p! Would look so good.

 

I was thinking, we need to get a repository or something set up where we can upload the patched XBE's themselves. I tried using the tool on a few games, and it never worked out too well for me. Call of Duty 3 I tried patching and it worked, but didn't display in 720p and it made you unable to crouch with it.

 

I used normal mode with window view ticked. However Shenmue II runs like Jet Set Radio Future which is like 10 fps which of course is unplayable. I thought that 1.4ghz cpu would help but it seems like it doesn't seem to do much for games running at higher resolution. Also is the GTA III you have, did you get it running with widescreen enabled in the display settings as I get a double screen if I have widescreen enable and yours doesn't looked stretched like the 4x3 screen does.

 

I have tried Outrun 2 (JP and US versions) and Outrun 2006 Coast to Coast (US version) and they both black screened on boot. I will get Virtua cop 3 eventually to test it (will be US version unless EU or JP has a superior version).

 

Time for a GPU overclock! Shouldn't be too hard after doing the CPU.

 

I will quote myself from another forum
