Increase Resolution for NON 3DFX Carma?

[Storm]

Hi guys, I was wondering if I can increase the res of carma without having to use 3DFX settings.

I prefer the game in its original form :P

I used to own a diamond monster voodoo 1 lol and a creative labs voodoo 2. But i always enjoyed more how games like duke3d looked without 3dfx.

There are unofficial patches to increase to resolution. Experimental stuff, cockpits and minimaps not supported. Look for "CARM95 in higher resolutions" in this list: http://rr2000.toshiba-3.com/pc-files#c1 . Follow instructions thoroughly :)

There was a 640x480 "-hires" swtich which had to be activated on the DOS prompt. I'm in the middle of finding a way of using it atm.

I have tried fiddling with the dosbox config files. Changed the non 3dfx path to " carma.exe - hires " but all i've managed to do is launch the game with a uncut gore password screen and a crash as I go into a race. Anyone else had better results?

Sorry for necroing, but if anyone still wonders and wanders onto this post, this is what worked for me


steamapps\common\Carmageddon1\dosboxCARMA_single.conf
change line 48 from

voodo2c.exe -novoodoo

to

voodo2c.exe -novoodoo -hires

I'm not sorry for necroing. thank you for the necro post. it was exactly the information i needed. last time i was in the mood to play carmageddon i couldn't get -hires (nice) to work, and its really annoying, and not as fun playing in such low res. also, i was dumb and couldn't find the file, i was about to post about the file not being there, then i realized i was looking in the wrong folder, serves me right for trying to rush.
