The widescreen mod for emperor improves the game a lot, good work and thanks, but is anybody experiencing the same problem: if I want to play a random, open game in Emperor, I always get redirected to the main menue instead of starting a new map. I've got a special version of the game, which was distributed by a german game magazine 2004, which couldn't be easily patched without using a nocd.

Hi all, first of all I would like to thank Jackfuste for all these fantastic widescreen mods. But would be nice to also unlock the 1024x600 resolution, as it's a fair common resolution on netbooks, and these games are so light that they are ideal to play on such devices. I tried to make it myself with hex editor, but it was not an easy task and I gave up, lol. The mod from Juppiter89 for Zeus seems to work, I thank him too. But we need mods for the other games, expecially Emperor. Itrust in you, Jackfuste!

I'd also be interested in a 1024x600 "widescreen" version of Caesar III, Zeus, Pharaoh, and Emperor for netbooks! Since these games are older they would work perfectly on less powerful machines.

Not too mention fitting nicely onto most smartphones nowadays. With an emulator playing the games on a phone or tablet shouldn't be a problem. :twothumb:

I managed to make a 1920x1080 patch for Caesar III a couple weeks ago (after messing around for a while and slowly figuring out what I was doing), I figured some of you would probably be interested in it.

c3 1920x1080

Fun fact: I found what appears to be a bug in the original .exe, in the construction kit menu the map preview picture's vertical position was determined by the horizontal resolution instead of vertical resolution - not very obvious with the game's original resolutions but a major effect on widescreen.

I'll try and modify it for some other resolutions, let me know if there's one you're looking for.


Hi I Made and account just for Thanking you for this. But I cant use it XD. Once i Place it in my install dir and launch it the screen goes black and i cant do anything. (i.e Ctrl-alt-del, Alt-F4, Alt-Tab, Ctrl-Shitf-Esc.) Nothing works and i have to restart my PC.

If anyone knows what the problem might be Feel free to answer as fast as possible. I rly wish to play this game. Brings back memmories.

I run Win 7U 64bit With a SLI config and a 144Hz monitor. Game is installed on the x86 dir and can start normally at 1024x768.



I have also come across this problem with c3's 1920x1080 res, does anyone know how to avoid the black screen and crashing issue?

Having gotten into the game again I'd love the opportunity to play it with modern resolutions!

Hi I just registered on here to say thx to Jack for making some of the greatest games of all time playable on modern monitors. Im using all your widescreen patches for all these original city builders. I do however have one request which I have seen here once or twice and would like to add my voice to: if possible could you make Caesar 3 in 1600x900 that would just be icing on the cake with the rest of these. Cheers and thx in advance for this and all the great work you've done.

I'd like to second this request, or some instructions on how to do it myself. Thanks.
