Resolutions

[qBlueBirdp]

Hi everyone. I wanted to know if it was possible to make MBII have MY resolution (1360 by 768 pixels). Because the one i have at the moment in MBII is horrible for my pixels :( . Maybe other persons have same problem than me... Thanks.

Honestly, when I do this for my 1400x900 it doesn't work, JKA too. I get a quarter of my screen missing -.-

Hmmm, guys. When i do the commands told, i start playing and my game crashed or theres the BGNextGroup or something bug poping up. :\

Yeah same here, my default resolution is 1440x900 and whenever I do the custom height and width thing I just lose a part of my screen. Seems like such resolutions aren't supported at all.

r_customheight 768
r_customwidth 1360
r_mode -1

There.

Will that work for 1680 x 1024? Or actually 1600 x 900?

Does having a widescreen give you an advantage or disadvantage?

[Subaru]

You're doing it wrong then...>_>

Does having a widescreen give you an advantage or disadvantage?

it makes the field of view bigger (depends on the resolution) but mostly it does. plus it makes the image more detailed which is perfect for sniper players.

seta r_mode -1
seta r_customwidth 1440
seta r_customheight 900

put that into your config, works for any resolution

edit: oh and for the advantage/disadvantage thing, see this post (http://www.moviebattles.com/forums/showpost.php?p=500787&postcount=15)

Only if you increase the fov...

[selman_akinci]

Thanks for the link norman, can anyone tell me the command to set fov and the default value please?

Doesn't seem to work..

edit -

/seta r_mode -1
/seta r_customwidth (value)
/seta r_customheight (value)

This actually works and you don't lose a portion of your screen.

Did you put it in your .cfg in MBII folder? Mine works perfect at 1600,900

The quake engine doesn't support a true widescreen. It is just a stretched 4:3 image.
It is easily fixed but that would give an advantage over 4:3 players (wider fov).

[ZeroT]

No, all I did was start up MB2 and put:



/seta r_mode -1
/seta r_customwidth (value)
/seta r_customheight (value)


Into the console (the one you bring up with Shift+Tilde).

It works.

[selman_akinci]

Then you need to do vid restart for it to take affect. It is in mt .cfg, no need for anything else...

[Subaru]

Using cg_fov fixes it a little bit, no?

[DarthNormaN]

the shot was taken at cg_fov 100 and thats the highest value

I've got a feeling it still won't work with 1400x900


I'll try it out regardless I guess.
