Widescreen resolution

The game does not automatically adjust the aspect ratio to match widescreen resolutions. Certain cvars may be set to fix this. They can be found in the config file in the game's Main folder:

  • r_mode -1 sets the display mode to the custom resolution specified by the following cvars.
  • r_customwidth, r_customheight set the custom display mode.
  • r_customaspect sets the aspect ratio for the 3D scene (not the HUD or menus!). Set this to the horizontal screen ratio (i.e. for 16:10, set this to 1.6)

If your monitor turns darker in fullscreen and the game doesn't respond to brightness settings, you can fix it with:

  • r_overBrightBits from "1" to "0"

Notes

  1. ↑ 1.0 1.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/2620/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (2620) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
