trouble with widescreen & Quake 4

SidewinderINC · 3 Feb 2006 at 17:52

Hi all,

just got around to re-installing Q4 on my pc after a full format... since having it last ive bought myself a widescreen TFT (the Belinea 102035W) and i cant get widescreen setup for the life of me!

ive done what it says online in the guides and it still comes out stretched, i have no idea what to do..

has anyone else had any similar problems?

Cheers

awesome cheers

well, i think ive sorted the problem with widescreen now... i kept going into the options after loading up the game to see if the resolutions i wanted were in there... and they arent, but they wont be will they?

i'm running an Overcocked 6800GT AGP

^i dont understand how to use Quak4

and also, i'm still finding it hard to setup the game to work in widescreen, it doesnt seem to be working. i cant get the high quality settings and everything is still stretched

^ Ginja - i dont see that setting, which is bizarre as i usually know where i'm goin in the gfx settings :S

^ AWPC - ive done that, it stilll doesnt work

the monitor is installed fine, its a 256mb 6800GT so that should be fine.

everything is still stretched ingame though, and it looks terrible

HL2 has it so easy, just click 16:10 and put the res to the right setting and its fine.

no luck with the hack still

^ have done, it still seems a little stretched though...

the quality is always on low though, i cant seem to set it higher, because every time i go into the options the resolution sets itself to low again

i think i spoke too soon when i said i had it fixed... just tried to start playing the game and it seems stretched again!

can somebody that has it on widescreen working fine, bring up the objectives when there are none, becuase the little "no" symbol, the circle with a line through it, is an oval on my screen! meaning the whole thing is stretched!

and the symbols people have when you hold the mouse over them are all rectangular still and not square.
