1280x768 in ET?


(viralDNA) #1

Hi, I’m new to the board but been play ET for awhile now and love it. Just recently I got a new display and was wondering if I can get ET to go 1280x768? I tried the wide screen mode but it seemed really glitchly and had problems redrawing. Windowed mode doesn’t work to well either. I was wondering if I can get ET to run native 1280x768 using the console or something? I can play fullscreen in 1024x768 but then everyone looks fat…thanks in advance!

Try:

seta r_customwidth “1280”
seta r_customheight “768”
seta g_fov “110”
seta r_aspectRatio “0”
seta r_mode “-1” //was 7
seta r_fullscreen “1”

Cool thanks! I tried something similar but I didn’t think it worked because the menu was still skewed. I don’t there’s a way to correct the menu and HUD too is there? At least everyone isn’t short and fat…lol. Thanks again.

iffy… seta g_fov “110” what is this good for…in this case? …

Maybe it de-stretches the player’s view. If you set it on a normal game, it squashes your view, this does the opposite here since the view is stretched on a wider screen.

It’s “cg_fov”.

ah okay cg_fov I know back with q3 mine was around 160 I think. Fishbowled but helped a lot. Does ET allow for stenciled shadows or is it blocked because of cheating?

AFAIK r_shadows 2 still exists in ET, but it is restricted on many servers.
