Yea...I saw that. But that was made before the official 1.1 patch. I had thought that the patch would make it easy to switch to 16:10, like in css/hl2...guess I was wrong. Thanks though! I've got it up and running now!

In the readme for the Doom3 1.1 Patch ...

RENDERING
- r_aspectRatio now uses 0, 1, or 2 (4:3, 16:9, 16:10)


So in the DoomConfig.cfg edit the line seta r_aspectRatio "0" line for your screen ratio.


:D

....uhhh... :shock:

No ... I meant leave it on 0 .... :roll: :? ...

Of course ... change it to 2 .... 1920x1200 is 16:10

Here is the important bit you didn't read ....

Come on ! ... you only have 2 options to try other than the 0 it is set at as default.

Sounds a lot like the pot calling the kettle black ...

.... if any response here was "crafted" that was ... :wink: ... and if your question ...
....uhhh...I'm assuming you mean set it to 2?
... wasn't down-right stupid then it was sarcastically suggesting that I somehow had not given you all the information ... hence I responded in kind.

A bit of banter is fine - no one can say I'm not sarcastic at times - but I don't want to see this thread degenerate into a flamewar. :)

Keep it civil. :D
