Alex Builds His Farm - Fix Pack


6 Screenshots

About This File

Comes with RAR files that contains a modified Alex_D3D.exe, which fixes several things in the adventure Playmobil game "Alex Builds His Farm" (1999). This fix only works on the English/French/German version. It also includes the source code for both versions of the fix for documentation purposes.

Credits go to: Lk19 (Source here: https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1488800#p1488800)

Features:

- Made the game "portable" so that it looks for the configuration file (ubi.ini) in the game's root directory rather than the Windows directory (Note: The "UbiSoft" subfolder isn't needed in the game's folder – just copy ubi.ini from C:\Windows\UbiSoft\ to the game directory, or also use the ubi.ini included in this fix if you can't find any in the mentioned directory).

- FOV now scales automatically with the resolution that's in ubi.ini (Check here for instructions for setting widescreen and wider resolutions).

- Fixes the placement of the green bar (HUD element) on resolutions other than 640x480.

- Texts, HUD elements and menu backgrounds are now unstretched and centered at the 4:3 area (there is also a version of the patch that keeps these elements stretched if it's preferred by some).

Instructions:

- Just extract Alex_D3D.exe to the root game folder, replacing the original executable (also extract the included ubi.ini if any can't be found in C:\Windows\UbiSoft\).


What's New in Version 1.1

Released

- Unstretched the HUD, texts and menu backgrounds, so they look correct in any aspect ratio.
