Kingpin resolution fix for steam version(patching is not required)

By helix666

Because standard resolution fix for kingpin doesn't work with steam version of the game(steam doesn't allow to patch exe) I've made a small fix in memory (via wrapping one of the used dlls).
This fix works only with fresh steam version(without any thirdparty patches) of the game.
To instal it download this archive[s3.amazonaws.com] and unpack it to ..\SteamGames\SteamApps\common\Kingpin. Both files ResolutionSettings.ini and winmm.dll should be in the same directory with kingpin.exe.
By default fix changes all resolution modes to 1920x1080, but it can be changed via editing ResolutionSettings.ini (description inside file).

Is 1080p the max resolution for the original game? Can´t get the game to work in higher than 1080p.

I cant be the only 1 to ask this guide creator to retitle this guide.

It definitely still requires a patch
