Has anybody here played Outcast?

I just installed it and was stunned because the game doesn't support resolutions above 512x384. Isn't there a way to make it run at least at 640x480?

TIA

Jedi Outcast? If thats what your talking about I run it at 1154x864 no problem... Or maybe its a different game. Sorry.

Yep, it's another game. It is called just "Outcast" and was published by Infogrames in 1999. Thanx for your quick reply, anyway.

Hi Nuk,

I't appears I'm the one and only resident Outcast fan on these forums.

I haven't played since 1999 but as far as I remember, the maximum resolution is 512 x 384; although you will get used to it very quickly and it in no way detracts from the game's scope and beauty.

I think the funny resolutions were due to the Voxel engine which powered the game. Have you tried the Framed and Cinemascope to see what suits you best.

Stick with it and you will be well-rewarded.

OK.
I got this game from a friend of mine who was very upset with it because of the limitation in resolution, so he passed it on to me. I've always wanted to play it because of its storyline. I'll play it and try to get used to the res.

Thanx.
