And also, it depends on what graphics card is being used as well. you can have it at a million resolutions, but the game will always play in 1024x768. Once agin, in a older game, the Monitor res means nothing, it has no bearing on what the game is going to REALLY run. This means, This is the ONLY resolution this game will ever run. it was released to a resolution binded to 1024x768. Silent Hunter was released for WIN2000 and WINXP, so the game was released when the step up for graphic resolutions was moving up from game playing 800圆00 graphics. It is Like you can have the Camero, or the Corvett, they are both Chevy and both GM. Why is this? Radeon is a mere graphics card, The Vision Tek is the game card version, and uses specal featuers needed for games not found in the default Radeon.
That is what you need to understand.įor example I can have a Radeon 247 512mb graphics card, and it would play games from ok to badly, and FAIL when it comes to certain other games, but a Radeon Visition Tek 240 512mb may run every game to the fullest in the game libray. It has never changed since the old win3.1 days. One game engine for graphics is not the same for another besides graphics cards on these older games.
Not all resolutions despite the graphics card will work either. Not all older games will work on certain graphics cards. It is all about graphics card type, and what the game is going to work at, mainly when it comes to older games such as this.
