What folks post here goes to the discord channel the same way it was posted the first time. So if you edit it, it doesn't matter.

Im pretty sure posting porn on here is a banable offense.

I think our eyeballs got off light though. That whole crew is more into kids than fat women.

Posting any porn links should be banned even if its from a well known site like porn hub and i will explain why..


One of the people I work with was just recently arrested for possession of CP material, amongst other sick and disgusting things, we were all shocked. If by some chance someone had posted a link to what appeared to be a known porn site but something like that slipped through the crack and you click on it, you arew fucked. IP gets logged and you can expect a knock on the door from the police.

Taskforces around the world (taskforce argos) in australia have a massive hash list of this material they use to know when someone even looks at these disgusting things.

Posting any porn link is a risk you dont know if one has slipped through the cracks

After setting pc to native res then mucking around with it vid_fullscreen then vidmodelist 800x600@60 was perfect got rid of the stretched look

If you're getting no stretch at that resolution and scan rate and if you can alt-tab out of it to the desktop without an ugly resolution swap then your desktop is at 800x600 and not at whatever you think you set it at. The ultimate or "native" resolution of the card has no bearing on your issue. Your screenshots seem to show that the desktop & game are at 800x600. To see what your active settings are, use Start | Settings | System | Display to see what is actually going on.

You should be setting your deskop resolution in Windows control panel and then setting q2pro `video mode` to desktop in the video options. The same thing goes for q2rtx with the additional option of using the builtin OpenGL or the rtx renderers.

The setting page you are looking for in Windows has the items shown.

I am so sorry about my previous response. I was blinded by the anger about the accusation post and I completely got lost. Thank you for letting me see my limitations Orb. Hope you found solution to your problem. I could certainly be more helpful if I was not sucha dummy. All the best. Happy fragging on your new PC  :smiley_md_clr:

... and then setting q2pro `video mode` to desktop in the video options.

Right.

@0rbisson, the point is you don't need to specify something like vid_modelist 800x600@60 in your config. It will only confuse things and q2pro has its own default list if nothing is specified.

As for other video resolutions, best pick one with the same multiplier:

3840 /2160 = 1.7777 (your monitor's multiplier for the x-y ratio)
1920 /1080 = 1.7777
1280x720 = 1.7777

1024 /768 = 1.3333
800 /600 = 1.3333

3840x2160 and 1920x1080 both have the same ratio, so at least 1920x1080 should run with no problems and fill the screen without distortion.

Nicotine has never been addictive to me, whatsoever, no matter how many years I've smoked or how many I smoke a day.

Otherwise known as 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratios, respectively. :)
