Really? Do you know how old the game really is? 1920x1080 didn't exsist when it was released. And the game is hard coded.. Now I see why no one answared this question..

I wasn't trying to be one.. I was pointing out a fact. Sorry if it seemed that way..

No, it dosen't work that way. It never has, and never will. 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.. Not all older games will work on certain graphics cards. Not all resolutions despite the graphics card will work either. One game engine for graphics is not the same for another besides graphics cards on these older games. It has never changed since the old win3.1 days. That is what you need to understand..

For 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. 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. It is Like you can have the Camero, or the Corvett, they are both Chevy and both GM..

Another Example...
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 800x600 graphics. it was released to a resolution binded to 1024x768. This means, This is the ONLY resolution this game will ever run. Once agin, in a older game, the Monitor res means nothing, it has no bearing on what the game is going to REALLY run. you can have it at a million resolutions, but the game will always play in 1024x768. And also, it depends on what graphics card is being used as well. The regular Radeon card dose not display the map layout right and tends to hide things because pending on what map your on, it uses a different resolutions switch, and the radeon card again, dosen't do it, or may not do it well, but the Vision Tek has no problem, just like the G-Force card would not have a issue..

One of the issues with this game is if your in high resolutions with the newer graphics card of today, the game may not start and crash, because it can't switch from the high res desktop to the needed 1024x768, it can't reconize the card ability. It is a big complaint on the fourms there. Game has to be at XP compatability and smaller desktop res inorder the game to startup, and some get no pictuer so they have to be at the very same game res for desktop settings.

In the end, the monitor is not going to have say so what so ever with older games. When it comes to newer games it sure dose seem to. I bought a new high dep basic small monitor with the resolutions at 1280x960. It's highest is 1440x900. It was cheap, afordable. And besides, I am not going to get some giant expensive monitor to use super resolutions so they look like they are in 1280x 960 anyway or need glasses for me to see the teeny weeny things on the desktop. (moving on...)

In FO 4 under the same resolutions on my old desktop regular computer LED monitor(flat screen), The lock picking screen in the game would not show. Every thing else did. The game did not know what kind of card I was useing, and made a best guess, which was all worng making it hard to adjust. But once I got the new LED screen moitor, which is a HD type. It was able to reconize my graphics card and use the correct settings as well now the lock picking screen will show. So maybe for some games it is needed, for others maybe not.

This is a older game, the maximum I am seeing is 1600x1200, your monitor setting on what it can do means nothing, what it shows you in the list is all it will ever do. What your card can do game wise will only do what ever the game switch will read it to do. Because older games are in charge like that. That is why sometimes on the fourms some players will complain about the game says "it is not able to run in this res, not enough resources" or something like that. If your having issues with the game working, start at 800x600 res and work up, the settings that worked best will be what you can use, because the game said so, not the manufactuer of the card or Monitor.. If your on WIN10 having issues, also try XP compatibility. Seems to work in WIN7 as is.
-Which returns back to why no one would answare your question..
Hope any of this helps..

The Xbox version of this game can actually run at 1080i. In theory the PC version would be able to run at any aspect ratio or resolution, provided the developers coded support for that into the game.
1920x1080 didn't exsist when it was released. I do not have to spoon feed anyone in regards of what I was talking about. This says "MX vs. ATV Unleashed" this is a community fourm for THIS game is it not? Am I to understand that Pluffiz is a a fool and dosen't know that the modern High Def monitors and advanced High Def gaming cards don't exsist in the here and now? So his question is ref to that? Do you really think he is that dense he couldn't get a clue if it was given to him. Is this what you are trying to say? Because I think he dose know all that already, and is NOT a fool, and his question is ref to the game working in 16:9. Would NOT be the first time someone made such a question, will never be the last.. Some old games are just too cool to bury and forget just because a softwear company said so. Like Dark Earth, was a very cool game I thought. This is a old game that plays in WIN95.

So I can see his question because to me since this is 2017, and the game is a old 2000 game, I would be thinking on a "MX vs. ATV Unleashed" community fourm he would be refering to the game capabilities. Like it has been done so many times with old games. Or did I miss understood him? Or have you been lying in wait, while this question has been sitting un-answared by anyone since Sept 15, until you can get a oppertunity to pounce and troll, or are you confused some how and need direction of understanding? I think you maybe just confused, let me help you...

This is not a X-box version of the game, this is not a X-box fourm, it is the PC version of the game, thus makes this the steam comunity fourms for said game. So X-box has nothing here at all. There is a differnce between a consol game and a PC version of the game. Their progaming is not all that the same. Some things are differnt in the coding. There is no getting around this.

Consol games use a hardwired video system that has been on the main board since the days of Atri 2600 besides pong. They are to work with a TV, which is a TV, not a PC monitor. Dosen't matter if you can use it, still not the same, they just have set compatabilities, nothing more. So the whole consol thing, I have no ideal why you even bothered with it, has nothing to do with this game working in 1920x1080 16:9 on the PC.... Which is really what I thought Pluffiz was talking about.

~I hope any of this helps.. :)

Hey buddy, I see you didn't adress the articles or respond with any evidence, but I really think you got something to say here. I like your attitude, and I like the sheer amount of words you can pull out of your ass, never before have I been beholden to such a sheer of volume of feces. Thank you for the laughs, the gaffs, and the goods, it's been a great time but everything good must come to an end. I think the lesson in all this, is that you actually don't need evidence or reason to win an argument, but instead just drown out the opposition in pointless rambling and passive aggressive remarks.
I want you to know, despite all of this, I love you.

That is nice, but I did, I have, maybe not in your version, but it is done.. I said everything I am going to say. But SINCE your up here with all the mouth, go ahead and explain it better than me... I am waiting...

On my laptop there is a setting inside of the Nvidia control panel that forces my game to run widescreen (not 1920x1080 but full screen). In the tab Display, Adjust desktop size and position.I changed 2. Apply the following seetings: select a caling mode. (mine was on Aspect ratio) i changed it to full-screen and it launched the game in widescreen.
Ndamukong Suh May 26, 2018 @ 8:30pm 
I have working widescreen exe's for this game.
1920x1080
2560x1080
3440x1440
3915x1650
I can make anything anyone needs.

You're right, but there are plenty of old games which support 16:9 resolutions that aren't capped at 30 fps. Painkiller for example came out in 2004 and yet it supports 1920x1080 with uncapped fps. The pc port of MX vs. ATV Unleashed was released in 2006 so Idk if it has something to do with its age or the budget.

Probably more so platform I would think, it was mainly for console at the start, and ported over to PC. Since it's graphics wasn't that demanding, they may have felt porting it over was good enough. That is just a guess that makes sense.
