Is there a widescreen solution yet?

[TaxOwlbear]

As per title: Has someone ever figured out a way to make this game run properly in widescreen, without the top/bottom being cut off?

I just testet it DG Voodoo Works for me in 1920x1080

duuuudue, elaborate! What the fuck is DG Voodoo? lol I just googled it, and downloaded it. It looks cool but I have no idea how to use it. I put it into my Emperor directory, opened its executable, changed the path to my Emperor directory, forced high resolution 1920 x 1080, hit apply.... then what? I closed program, then fired up Emperor, but no resolution change.

DoMiNaNt_HuNtEr that wasn't the way to do it. I couldn't find the registry option and then found this software and followed the instructions, it stretches the image but it works fine. Did you read the instructions? 

Just copy the .dlls from the MS and 3Dfx folders to your Emperor folder and that's it man. I didn't change the "Config folder/ Running instance" option from dgVoodoo, I got by default: C:\Users\Levi\AppData\Roaming\dgVodoo   I didn't tweak any option and didn't do anything else, running on Windows 10

Oh ok cool thanks, I'll give that a try soon. BTW I'm on windows 7. Same thing applies?

Could you plz give us more informations about this ?
I've tried exactly as you mentioned, but nothing changed.

1024x768 is still max resolution :(

[TaxOwlbear]

1024x768 should never be the maximum. You should at least have some higher 4:3 resolutions available.

I am kinda interested in the DG Voodoo.

I have some issue's with KKnD. The sides are being cut off.
All other games work fine so far.

Hi,

Same for me, can't get a better resolution than 1024x768, even if using dgVoodoo 2 etc.

I got the voodoo thing to work for me. Check this thread: https://forum.dune2k.com/topic/28667-found-widescreen-solution-win10-nvidia-laptop/?tab=comments#comment-399333

Read the link in my comment, it's a tutorial on how to actually use Voodoo. You gotta copy the MS x86 files and the voodoo configuration file into your Emperor directory, then run voodoo config, click the A button next to the top dropdown box window (config) to set proper directory, then go to the directx tab and set your resolution. Also uncheck the voodoo water mark option. Hit apply, then you run Emperor.exe and it should automatically be set to the desired resolution, no need to go into the in-game option menus.
