22" Monitor 16:10 aspect ration for ET

by Yossarian • 13 Sep 2007, 16:32 • Journals
Hello /B/rothers

I am a fellow xfire user.

My name is Chuck, I am an employee at local Kebab Restraunt. Before I have to go to work I have one question for you. Since I bought new 22" widescreen 16:10 monitor I have a problem setting up correct resolution in my favourite game Enemy Territory, Wolfenstein.
I have tried the following - r_mode -1, doing custom w/h for 16:10 ratio, and in the end I have proper resolution but with one problem, it's not fullscreen, I can see lower part of desktop, even at fullscreen 1 mode.
Also I am having weird texture breaking(or something like that), that has something to do with vsync. How to fix these problems? Could you please tell me what config commands can resolve this. It interest me very much.

-Chuck

p.s Do a loop the loop, I'm powering my laser, shoop the whooper, dasu dasu.

I just play with r_mode 6 on fullscreen. That's probably completely wrong but I haven't been arsed to change it since I only play on pubs.

at first I thought it felt more normal, but really once you play in a real widescreen ratio without squished models and incorrect mouse movement ratios its so much nicer :)

Well, I have no idea what settings to change, so I'm not sure I'll bother.

Had the same on rtcw dont know if the cmd is for et aswell
seta r_customheight "1050"
seta r_customwidth "1680"

If thats your resolution ofcourse otherwise you have to change it :P

I can't play on that resolution because rest of my PC is....not good. I need some lower one, but as I wrote in op, it results lower part of screen showing desktop instead of game.

r_displayrefresh 60/75

this was always my problem when i could see the desktop underneath.

and a lot of combinations of r_custom w/h :( all 16:10 resolutions seem to fail
