The patched exe refers to this new interfac.drs, not to the original one. It writes a new exe and a new version of interfac.drs, both with a different name. It also changes all interface graphics to the right resolution by duplicating some lines and repeating the rightmost pixels. How It Works: It changes the effective resolution of the 1280x1024 (or 1024x768, 800圆00) choice to your desktop resolutions (but other options are possible), by changing some of the occurrences of 1280, 1024 and related numbers inside the binary. the attached screenshot is a 1900x1200 resolution (pretty standard for a 24' screen).

This patch allows you to run AOC on practically any resolution. =D I might fix some text and grammar, but I'd need his permission to actually re-release them as a single set with any fixes and/or including any audio, and in the past I believe he asked that I NOT do that kind of release, so I am respecting that until I hear otherwise.Note: The author's site link is actually a link to the original forum discussion for this mod. If I ever get to, look forward to custom-made audio files in there note that the adventure doesn't include them, and they would only be used for the purposes of the Let's Play (since I would otherwise be reading the text and it saves me the trouble mid-recording).

I hope to someday do a Let's Play of the Dedication series created by Nightwolf (David Masters) - and maybe also Dedication II - if I get the ability and such to do that, so we will see when the time comes. I believe, since no files in the actual scenarios were edited (only the images and the main running application), that this therefore also works with custom scenarios.

Your widescreen should now be recognized.

Open the DATA folder in both the archive and the drive directory and copy all of the image files into the drive directory.

Either way, I opened Version 2, but hopefully someone will provide some intel on this so I can edit this step.Ĭopy Zeus.exe into the install directory (if asked to overwrite, check the file from step 8 that was backed up if not backing up, just overwrite, but this is risky). While I do not know the difference between Version 1 and Version 2, I am assuming that Version 1 is the original version and Version 2 is a patched (or perhaps just GOG) version. For instance, my resolution is 1,366x768.įind the resolution closest to your native resolution (my selection was 1,360x768). I won't guide to this, but it's often found right in the control panel. If you don't know the resolution you are seeking, PLEASE go to your desktop and open your display resolutions. Open 'ZEUS_WIDE!' in that directory and observe the screen resolutions. Be careful to choose the exe as there are other files called 'zeus' or 'Zeus' that are configuration settings, setup info.and an icon. Return to the main directory and move Zeus.exe into the same 'Original Files' (or whatever you called it) folder. My setup was to create a folder called 'Original Files', add 'DATA' (mirroring the actual directory), and move the JPG from the actual DATA into that folder. If you wish to create a backup of the files, create a folder inside the Zeus/Poseidon directory and move all JPG files inside into that folder. Set Windowed mode to force the game to run in a window as well (this caused problems for me on the menu screen when I tried it there, so I strongly advise doing it on a non-menu screen as it should hopefully conform from there).

This is the display setting that will be replaced in future steps, and it might be better to start up in the resolution once you have it ready. There should be an Options menu click it and select Display Options. Get to a gameplay screen and check the top of the screen for menus. Start the game in the native resolution, which is either 800圆00 or 640x480. Follow this list of steps:ĭownload the following file: (anyone who wishes to mirror the file please do also, WinRAR WILL open this type of file, so you don't need to get 7Zip). Let's get the game working nicely for you if it isn't.

I decided to reinstall Zeus/Poseidon yesterday and download a batch of custom campaigns from the Zeus Heaven (Heaven Games) site, which are all part of a series of missions I last played on a desktop.
