Widescreen resolution |
|
Selecting resolutions higher than 1920x1080 may show a black screen; if so, enter the desired values in the registry editor. Type "regedit" (without quotation marks) then go to "Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Activision\Spider-Man (TM) SD\Settings\Display" and set resolution, refresh rate, etc... there. |

60 FPS |
|
|
120+ FPS |
|
Locked at 60 FPS. Use cheat engine and search for 0.016666666666 as a float in rounded (extreme) mode while game.exe is selected in the memory search range and "Writable", "Executable" and "CopyOnWrite is set to "Don't Care"". Two of the values shown will be FPS related. Change both to 0.00277777 for 360 FPS. The game may stutter initially but will get stable after a few seconds. Using v-sync here is recommended. Forcing a refresh rate may be needed as well, see Widescreen notes. Hex editing these values may be possible on some executables; removing the need of following the above process each time the game is launched. Replace all instances of 89 88 88 3C with 3F 0B 36 3B (360 FPS). |

Issues fixed

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Activision\Spider-Man (TM) SD\Settings\Display , the keys and their values will be displayed on the right.
- Select the
Width key and in the window that comes up change the base to decimal and type into Value data your desired (supported) horizontal resolution, hit OK to close the window and apply the value.
- Repeat the last step but for the
Height and vertical resolution: Select the Height key and in the window that comes up change the base to decimal and type into Value data your desired (supported) vertical resolution, hit OK to close the window and apply the value.
- The game should start in the chosen resolution when relaunched with you being to now freely change the resolution from the options menu.
