I happened upon a patch for GPL the other day that allows you to run the menu screens at the same resolution as the racing view, however I didn't think it was a very useful thing. Now I realize that that would be nice, so I'm asking if anyone would happen to know where that patch is?? I've searched all over, but I have no idea where I saw it. Thanks for your help. Jason

Ive never heard of it, i would also like to know where to find it but what is the advantage? Just doesnt have to change over when you go to race, maybe load up faster but any other advantages.

That's about the only advantage I was looking for as well. I left 800x600 long ago, and I hate seeing the desktop for that brief second between the screens at that res. :)
