How exactly do I go about doing that? Although I don't have the game yet, I heard that Dead Rising has text issues in SDTVs, and that's what I have :\ My monitor is a bit smaller than my TV screen, but it's a 17" flat screen monitor and there's a chance that it could look a little better. I also heard from several sources that sometimes, playing the game on a computer monitor would somewhat fix the problem...

Im pretty sure theres adapters to connect a SD cable or component cables to a monitor. Just google it and see if you find anything.

At gamestop, you can buy a xbox 360 VGA cable:

The VGA cable is the solution. The NXE introduced improved support for monitor resolutions, too.

make sure you buy a high quality one otherwise you'll get a lot of ghosting. though it probably won't be too noticeable on a 17" monitor.

    @Xdqwerty there is health behaviour you can add to your character, then to use a health bar is lil more complicated, google n watch a few tutorial video on it, be too hard to explain here.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the character has the health behavior
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I know you have to create a health and health max variable. Then there is a calculation you use in code to subtract width size of the health bar. Google few vids.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, the "greenflatbar" is one of the preset health bars btw
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea you can use any bar/sprite. It will just change the width. Ok good luck and have fun. I'm off to go shoot some pool at the bar. Talk to you later.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
