Discontinue PS2 support!!

[RAIST]

don't have an xbox...Micro$oft gets enough of my money as as. Just basing it on what I've heard from others--that graphics are better on xbox versus PS2. But that was not the point of my post--the point was that raising the resolution doesn't do anything to improve the games graphics directly, it just smooths the edges out between pixels by blending them. There is a limit to what you can do when your source has a low pixel count to begin with.

the max 3D res for windows version is 2048x2048, the 360 version doesn't even come close to doing that, I have mine set to 2048x2048 with 1366x768(max res of my laptop display, this is a non standard background and must be set in the config first before you tweak the 3D res, don't try to go above your max res for the background, the game will crash) background

I set my bg res to 3200x1800, and it works fine.

Also, setting it to 2x your main resolution will be better than using square resolutions.

My thread had the perfect solution to the PS2 problem.

Put all of them on their own server.

try to remember that even though the PS2 can do component video it isn't capable of HD and the XB360 is capable of 720P/1080i(this is what it was capable of when I had my 360 pro, the slim might be capable of 1080P I don't know), the graphics are gonna look better because they will be clearer once you put them in HD but on non HD the graphics for XI look almost identical, but weather effects wont slow down the 360 like they do the PS2

putting them on their own server still requires support and updates though :s

They don't have room for updates, it only requires minimal support. lol

They already looked into a big DirectX update and decided it wasn't worth it.

Converting to DirextX 9.0 wouldn't have been hard if the Windows version is just the PS2 code compiled with a Windows wrapper. I think it was more like they didn't want to bother.

actually you're wrong, the XB360 version is the same quality textures super sampled, they are not higher quality, the xb360 port is PS2 emulation just like the windows port

It's not emulation. It's the PS2 code compiled with a wrapper. Emulation is virtual hardware that runs the machine instructions of the original hardware that it is emulating. PS2 emulation didn't even become possible until a few years ago because PC's just weren't fast enough until then.
