I have to hard reset to recover, resulting in yet another "Microsoft ScanDisk" skip (hate having to skip this because I know nothing's wrong with the damned hard drive). I renamed the Config file so the game would reset to defaults and launched the game - right into a frozen desktop. So I disabled my 3dfx cards in Device Manager and restarted the computer - verified the cards were still disabled. The Voodoo2 is only here for Glide games. #Return to castle wolfenstein change resolution how toSo.not sure how to get the game to use the TNT2 card, which should be better for OpenGL and DirectX games. The remedy I have is to go into the config file's folder and delete the config file so that the game loads with default settings. It SHOULD be able to play in 1024x768, but if I change that, it crashes. Turning on nVidia Distance Fog crashes, obviously. That explains some of my graphics setting limitations. So yeah, it's running off the Voodoo2 SLI. So I finally crawled under my desk with the game running and unplugged the VGA cable from my TNT2 card (which goes into my 1st Voodoo2 card). Have fun slaying some Nazis! Reply 9 of 18, by FFXIhealer Extract: WOLFMP.EXE from the patch, copy it to the win9x rtcw folder, this will remove the steam rtcw drm. Extract WOLFSP.EXE from the patch, copy it to the win9x rtcw folder, this will remove the steam rtcw drm.Īll below can be skipped if multiplayer is not required ĥ. Copy the installation folder to your Win9x build before starting the game on your main computer (X:\XXXX\steamapps\common\ Return to Castle Wolfenstein)ģ. #Return to castle wolfenstein change resolution PcDownload RTCW on your main PC with Steam.Ģ. At least when I downloaded the game a few days ago.ġ. Unfortunately the webpage is wrong, the rtcw exe in steam version requires Steam to be running. I don't know how accurate that website is but even if it did require Steam you could always use iortcw port.Īs for compatibility I only have the original ver so unknown if the Steam ver is compatible with 9x but if not it looks like the iortcw port uses SDL1 so assuming it's compiled with Mingw or VS2008 or below it should work on 9x. #Return to castle wolfenstein change resolution windowsSo my question is: Does anyone know how to take the STEAM version of this game OFF of a modern PC and run it on Windows 98 WITHOUT STEAM? Or should I just try to get the original version of the game on CD-ROM from a site somewhere? We all know how STEAM likes to f*** with games via updates.Īccording to this: the game does not have any DRM I've read the system requirements, and this PC is easily capable of running the game, but we all know just how much STEAM likes Windows 98, or non-SSE2 CPUs (my Athlon XP 3200 Barton comes to mind). I've never played this game, so I'm interested.īut I also have this great retro gaming PC - a Pentium III 256MB of PC-100 memory, 40GB hard drive, Windows 98, and a Diamond Viper V770 RIVA TNT2 32MB AGP card and dual 12MB STB V2-1000 Voodoo2 PCI cards in SLI. And in this case, I look at "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" for only $5. However there is this nice article on Steam which details how to make any game run in fullscreen windowed mode, and I have tested this with Elite Force and it works fine.I'm sure this has been asked before, but with the new Wolfenstein II being released - and we all know about STEAM - I've been looking at all the STEAM Wolfenstein games. The ID Tech 3 engine does not natively support "Fullscreen Windowed Mode", and thus neither does Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force. Where x is the field of view in degrees, defaulting to 90. Where x and y are the width x height values for the resolution you wish to run, in this instance 1920x1080.įinally if you want to adjust the field of view drawn in game, you can do so by changing or adding the following Seta r_customwidth "x" seta r_customheight "y" Then, either change or add the following two lines The first change you need to make, is you need to find a configuration line that says the following In the case of Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force, that configuration file is located in \baseef\efconfig.cfg. To allow ID Tech 3 games (including Quake 3, Star Trek Voyager: Elite Force, Return to Castle Wolfenstein and many more) to run using a widescreen or custom resolution you can edit the configuration file created after you first run the game.
