Fixing "blurred" graphics
Do this steps before opening the game:
|
- Open
regedit.exe .
- Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e968-e325-11ce-bfc1-08002be10318}\0000\UMD\ .
- Find the value
PixelCenter .
- Change
30 00 00 00 to 31 00 00 00 .
- After closing the game, change
PixelCenter back to 30 00 00 00 .
Notes
- This method also helps in other games with blurred graphics, like in The Matrix: Path of Neo.
- This method was tested on AMD videocards (maybe it will also work on NVIDIA videocards).
