Mercenaries 2 Custom Resolution Launcher v2

Added Aspect Ratio Fix

Possible crash fix?

http://tocaedit.com/forum/dload.php?action=file&file_id=115

To figure out your aspect do ResX / ResY

For example 1024 / 768 = 1.333

tested 1.25, 1.333, 1.777

i updated the file a few minutes after i posted this if you get some weird graphics glitches (white traffic) using the above values just download again

Can you post a link back to this thread, in case people have problems with the tool?

Also, can someone do a Detailed Report with the Racer_S fix.

Hello all.

When I try using Racer_S fix I keep getting this error "Mercenaries 2: World in Flames is unable to continue due to an error initializing you graphics hardware". My native resolution is 1440x900 and I have Merc2Res2 set to 1.6 and I have changed the res in my Mercs2.ini file but I stilll keep getting this error. Is there anyway to fix this?

Try changing your refresh rate to 59 or 60.

On another note, not a single donation, i spent at least 10 hours..

Seems theres a patch on the way anyway... kudos
