Which "that" did you try? Both of them? Are you running full-screen or windowed mode?

Tried the regedit and the ffxiconfig methods, neither worked.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Oh, I must have forgotten to use Chainquestion.

/ja "Chainquestion" <me>

Are you running full-screen or windowed mode?
Or using windower?
What resolution are you trying to set?
If you set the background lower again, can you bring the overlay back up to that resolution?
Have you tried incrementally increasing the overlay resolution instead of going straight for maximum?
What's your hardware?

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Using windower, however I've tried running in full-screen and SE's windowed mode.
For Overlay Resolution I tried increasing it in increments, I'd be satisfied if it would even stay at 1024x768, but higher would be better.
Set background lower, overlay still resets back

Intel Quad Core 2.4 ghz
2 gig ram
Geforce 8800 GT 512 mb

Think I answered everything!

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Well, I'm officially stumped, then. I was asking about windower because I know that sets the resolution itself, or at least has the option to; it's been too long since I used it to remember the details. But if you've tried without it, that's probably not it.

My only other thought is to double-check your decimal-to-hex conversion, if you didn't just use regedit's built-in thing for that. Which also shouldn't be a problem if you set it through FFXI Config.

Sorry.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Well, thanks for trying at least! I can't try anything else atm because of maintenance
If all else fails I'll try to reinstall.

It seems as if the changes do not take effect at all. But with my 17" the changes to it's native resolution worked like a charm.

Anyone that might ask this question again later.... if you select "Decimal" when editing the registry entry, you can actually type in the resolution number. Worked fine when I just setup my laptop to 1680x1050.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
To answer all your questions, just google the following: ffxi +bump mapping

Then click then link at the top, Allakhazam.

Read it all, btw, I got a AMD X2 running @ 2550 mhz + x800Pro @ x800XTPE (16p) 520/545 and 2 GB DDR memory. It still lags (I count lag as FPS under 24) in towns and party when running background @ 2048x2048.



In this world the flesh of the weak is the food of the strong.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Since the game is capped at 30fps, 24 is hardly lag. NTSC (your TV in North America or Japan) is 30fps and PAL (Europe) is 25fps so 24fps is hardly poor.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
Next time someone calls themselves a newbie, just read one of my posts and your ego will suddenly rise.

I have windows vista, would this change anything? I just know windows vista was created to make people very very sad.

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" can't be found. :/

*sigh* people need to stop with the emo vista BS.... if your new to PCs, please dont get Vista -.-

"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\PlayOnlin eUS\SquareEnix\FinalFantasyXI" for 64bit OS and
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\PlayOnlineUS\SquareEn ix\FinalFantasyXI" for 32bit OS

is the path for Vista users.... and if you cant find "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE" you might have registry corruption



Gaming at its best, the good old 8-bit days

Yep, only been using PCs since 95. Sorry! It would have been sooner if I was born just a bit earlier.

Thanks for attempting to help. ^^

That kinda sounds like you're running a search for it and getting an error. You wouldn't happen to be looking for a directory on the hard drive, would you? 'Cause this is all about registry editing. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE should be visible as soon as you run regedit.

Re: Enabled higher resolution on background textures. Game looks amazing. Look to see
I am too exhausted to read all 23 pages, does anyone know offhand what #'s I should use to get my resolution to 2560x1600?

I'll check back after my beauty rest, maybe I'll be able to find out then.
