If you want a higher resolution and/or never ending game for the demo here's what to do:-

Create a file with notepad called locale.ini and copy and paste these lines into it:-

RESOLUTION = 1680x1050x32
QUALITY = 2
WINDOWED = 0
VIDEO = 1
AUDIO = 1
SPEECH = 1
NO_EXTRA_TIME = 0
NEVERENDING_GAME=1
DO_CPU_SUB = 0
ONE_ON_ONE=0
SIDE_SELECT=-h
SKIP_FE=0
HOME_TEAM=21
AWAY_TEAM=241
HOME_TEAM_KIT=0
AWAY_TEAM_KIT=1
PRACTICE_MODE=0
[OPTIONS]
LINESMEN = 0
REFEREE = 0
NUM_SUBS = 5
DO_CPU_SUB = 0
WIDESCREEN = 1
DIFFICULTY_LEVEL = 2
GAME_SPEED = 1
STADIUM = 137
[GUI]
SKIP_TITLE = 0



then save it to your fifa08 demo file and then you can choose which options you want to have in game , then load game and hey presto :rockman:

This locale.ini file is included with the Fifa08 NextGen Patch which is excellent and alot better than all the expanders.

Can you tell us something about the demo?

Looks very bad

I acutally think, there might be a bit more entries, my locale.ini looks like this:

[]
RESOLUTION = 1280x1024x32
RENDER_QUALITY=2
QUALITY = 2
WINDOWED = 0
VIDEO = 1
AUDIO = 1
SPEECH = 1
NO_EXTRA_TIME=0
NEVERENDING_GAME=0
NO_SECOND_YELLOW=0
NO_IMMEDIATE_RED_CARD=0
DO_CPU_SUB=0
ONE_ON_ONE=1
SIDE_SELECT=-h
SKIP_FE=1
HOME_TEAM=241
AWAY_TEAM=21
HOME_TEAM_KIT=0
AWAY_TEAM_KIT=1
PRACTICE_MODE=0
[OPTIONS]
LINESMEN=1
REFEREE=1
BOOKINGS=1
NUM_SUBS=5
DO_CPU_SUB=1
INJURIES=1
WIDESCREEN=1
DIFFICULTY_LEVEL=2
GAME_SPEED = 0
TIMEDISPLAY=1
VISUALINDICATORS=1
RADAR=1
STADIUM = 137

[GUI]
SKIP_TITLE = 1

I want to point out that when you enable the linesmen you'll see that their body has all "missing texture" probably because they didn't include their faces and stuff for the demo, i think it also happened FIFA '07's demo.

Are those difficulty levels like this?

Beginner = 1
Amateur = 2
Semi-Pro = 3
Professional = 4
World Class = 5
Legendary = 6

I'd think they start at 0, just like all indexed values. So 0 for Beginner and so on.

Is there an option to play for eg. 10 minutes or to play two halves? Was the demo 8 minutes?

Has anyone tried those with the full version of the game?!

Can anybody tell if 1920x1080 (Full-HD / 1080p) will work with this game?!
Mine crashes if I enter this into locale.ini

If your monitor can support it it will work , mine does!;)

If your monitor can support it it will work , mine does!;)

Well I actually have a television that would support it and I would like to play on it. How did you manage to do that, just changed it in the locale.ini?!

Cheers

This is the locale.ini I am using and it works perfectely , just copy and paste this into your locale.ini........;)..good luck m8.
