Title: Resolution Location
Post by: yzmxer608 on August 21, 2012, 08:11:20 PM
Is there anywhere editable (registry, in a file you can open etc) that you can change the resolution?  I got the game working on Win7 64 with my GTX670, but the only selectable resolution is 640x480 in the game settings  :-\.

You can find the mcm2 registry at

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft games\Motocross Madness 2

On my installation i don't see anything for resolution except DisplayWidth (mine is set to 800) and modes/NumberOfModes under the DriverInfo for each card. Hope that helps.

are you running software rasterisation? if not, did you get it to run with more than 2 gigs of ram?, i can only get it to run with my gtx570 when i turn the ram down. i also have a problem that i cant read any text in the menus, but it plays fine.

Hmm, I didn't have a display width entry (I remember seeing that talked about when I was searching, think it might only show when you have dillo installed).  Added it anyway just to see and it didn't change anything :(.  Kind of weird, never had this problem before.

al167, I can get it to work with 3GB, but any more than that and it won't get to the loading screen.  If you have AA enabled in your graphics drivers, it seems like that makes the invisible menus worse.

I thought I'd bring this topic back to life.

I've managed to get MCM2 installed on Win7 x64 with little to no troubles. My issue is, however, that the resolution changer is stuck on 800 x 640; with no other options to use. My monitors resolution is 1920 x 1200. I scoured the internet for solutions but came up short.

Has anyone seemed to find a work around or fix for this?

Think i did something inside the  mcm2 graphics option to get it working for me.

but you need to exit and reenter the game for the setting to save

Coming back to this, still having this problem.  I tried the oldest Nvidia drivers I could for my card (the first set that added support for the 670) and I still only have 640x480 for a resolution option.  Can't figure this one out...

Tried installing it on my laptop with Win 7 64 and an AMD Firepro, it works fine (all resolution selections).  The game must just not like the new Nvidia stuff for some reason.
