Heads up for anyone with the gotham city imposters beta, it left behind 4ish gb in it's folder. Don't recall if I removed it or not, but it's gone from the games list now so you have to manually remove it.

No, it is literally impossible to get real widescreen for the games. Fortunately Nvidia recently fixed pillar boxing so I can enjoy the games in 4:3 without it stretching out.

So I finally want to buy a Dawn of War game.

What's the best to get that's on sale?

Retribution would be the best bet. Lots of single player content and the most active multiplayer community of the bunch.

The patch is super simple and just takes a minute. There is literally no excuse not put the 3 minutes of effort in.

Any chance we will ever get KOTOR II? I really want to try it since I love Obsidian and I enjoyed the first game and I'm wary of buying the disks somewhere only for the game to fail to run/install on Windows 7.

7 zip wishes it was as good as winrar.

Seriously, why would anyone use something different than winrar.

Who actually launches an archive program these days? Right click -> Unzip. I mean, I personally use 7zip rather than WinRAR, but how would you even notice the difference? Hahahaha.

In my case, I had to switch to 7-Zip because I used to work in office environments with a zero-tolerance policy towards software license infringement, and the terms of WinRAR meant that we couldn't just keep using it like you can if you're a home user.

Nope, nvidia scaling still doesn't work for me.
Click to expand...
I'm not sure if the NVIDIA drivers work similarly to the AMD drivers in this respect (it might be a Windows 7 thing) but you might try switching to a lower resolution before setting scaling, then setting it back to your regular resolution afterward. It's weird, but it's the only way (in my experience) to get it set on AMD cards. Worth a shot, anyways :)

I always use 7-zip from the command line anyway. I like 7-zip because it supports a bunch of formats, and it's open-source free software. :D

I recently played it on Win 7 64-bit. It was fine, though it doesn't have widescreen and I could never get the widescreen utilities I found to work with it.

1998 called, it wants its opinions back.

EDIT: Great minds...

My post is just that post with an .r01 behind it.
