Commandos 2 XBox and 480p

[jvgfanatic]

Hi, it appears that Commandos 2 doesn't start when any of the HD options are chosen in the XBox's setup menu. I have the Microsoft HD kit and over 20 other games work fine, why would Commando's 2 have a problem?

Actually, it does start, the screen is just massively garbled.

Thanks.

I have no idea since i dont have C2 on XBox but one possibility is that XBoxs HDs have a different file naming requirement to that of a PC

There are restrictions on file names lengths... not sure whether this would make a difference or not... but maybe

Sorry, HD = High Definition (i.e. 480p). If the option is turned on in XBox settings the game is completely messed up (unplayable). I have to turn 480p off each time I play C2. Every other game (launch games included) plays fine with the option enabled.

Ah well, Eidos emailed me back and didn't really acknowledge that it was a problem but they did say there's nothing to be done about it. No surprise really.
