Castaway Stories Graphics File
Hey all,
After watching a let's play I decided to pull out my old copy of castaway stories. The problem was that on newer systems the game can't detect resolution. On my first attempt to fix this issue by editing the graphics file, I ended up messing up which forced me to have to uninstall and reinstall the game. This was a huge hassle so here is a back up of the default graphic file for anyone in my boat.
Also here are some instructions on how to increase the resolution that I found from the site at the link below.
Widescreen resolution -

The game's maximum default resolution is 1600x1200. For higher resolutions you need to edit the following file:
Electronic Arts\The Sims Castaway Stories\TSData\Res\Config\Graphics Rules.sgr
Set maxResWidth and maxResHeight to your display's native width and height, or copy/paste the following:
option ScreenModeResolution
setting $Low
uintProp maxResWidth 2560
uintProp maxResHeight 1600
uintProp defaultResWidth 800
uintProp defaultResHeight 600
setting $Medium
uintProp maxResWidth 2560
uintProp maxResHeight 1600
uintProp defaultResWidth 1024
uintProp defaultResHeight 768
setting $High
uintProp maxResWidth 2560
uintProp maxResHeight 1600
uintProp defaultResWidth 1024
uintProp defaultResHeight 768
end
