Quake How to Change Resolution ?
Problem
First off, sorry for posting this in the wrong forum, but as Quake: The Offering doesn’t seem to have its own support forum yet (that I’VE been able to find, anyway) I’m posting it here.
In-game, the Quake video options menu says I need to set screen resolution from the command line. Right-clicking GL Quake, going to properties and changing what I THOUGHT was the command line only changed GL Quake’s name.
So where is this command line and how do I set it? Is it just the default Windows “run” command?
Problem 2
Changing resolution in GLQuakeI don’t know how to change the resolution to 1920×1080 in GLQuake. I know that you have to type -width or whatever but I don’t know where to type it. Can someone help me?
Quake Change Resolution Solution
If you haven’t removed or renamed the opengl.32.dll file present in the same directory, then you need to use nglide_config.exe to change the game’s resolution, since Quake is outputting to that specified resolution. See here for more information.
If you have removed/renamed the OpenGL32.dll file, then you can use the command line (CMD) on Windows. Navigate to the Quake game directory via CMD, then type the following (without quotes): “glquake.exe -width 1024 -height 768 -bpp 32” and see if it launches. See QuakeCMD.png for an image for what I mean.
Alternatively, you can open the properties of the Launch Quake shortcut (right click>properties), then enter in the following as shown in the Quakeshort.png image.
However, doing the two command arguments as listed above may cause the game to crash on start if you have not updated your GLQuake (it does for me).
Consider checking the above forum link for more info on alternative Quake ports that are much more convenient to use. Also check out the forum on ways to set up the music properly.
