Jaymod - Wide Screen - F|A RECRUITING XP SAVE

[Blunt]

So I tried playing F|A RECRUITING XP SAVE Jay Mod 108.61.18.110, it was a lot of fun however, had an issue with wide screen support which I am guessin is a Jaymod issue.  So usually when this happens I just run the following script, followed by vid_restart;
 

seta r_aspectratio 1
seta r_customaspect 1
seta r_mode -1
set r_fullscreen 1
set r_picmip 0


seta r_customwidth 1920
seta r_customheight 1080

I got a script error command unrecognized and nothing changed.   So then I tried to manually enter in just the width & height with a vid_restart and still didn't work.   Am I doing anything wrong?  Should I just delete my Jaymod folder and let it re-download (maybe corrupt, haven't been on jaymod in years)?

Try to run pk3 cleaner

Running pk3 cleaner will NOT fix his issue. 

 

@Blunt What's your screen resolution? Thanks

No worries - All Good. Just want to share that pk3 cleaner is not solution to all. In this particular case, we need to fix his config.

first of all what client do you use 2.60b or ETLegacy ?

[Blunt]

Screen resolution 1920 x 1080

 

Native 2.60b, not legacy

go to et.exe shortcut Properties and in Target section try to add this: 

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\et.exe" +r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "1920" +r_customheight "1080" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart

That will throttle his RAM if he only got 8GB RAM and other apps open. For ETL 512MB is good and ET 256MB. Curious to know.. how does u used hunkmeg looks like?  For Ex:

I've got 32GB of RAM and it doesn't bother me but you are right, it should be lower for players with less RAM

 

It looks like this :

So I got the in game to set correctly, but the Limbo menu is stretched.  See pic the circles should be round.   However, not sure I care enough to do any further troubleshooting.  Game play is really all that matters.

Looking right now at the screenshot of r_custom settings I see r_custom is set to 800.  Could that be the limbo menu stretch screen issue?

Huh r_customerheight and r_custom are not commands, how did you get them to appear in your console o.o

[Blunt]

Old timer tricks, lol.  If you are in the console, type in the beginning of a setting/command then press tab; for example I typed r_custom <then TAB key> and got those 5 settings.  If I typed in r_ only I would get like 40 returns.  Most people use it to remember command syntax or check if a setting took.

No what he is saying is - r_customerheight -> That command doesn't exist. U will have the cvar in your config. It's not required and will not do anything.

You can add new commands in config and it will show up in console 😄  Stupid, i know lol

I know about that lol but I wondered how invalid commands still made their way into the console but @daredevil explained it, had no idea you could have improper commands still show up in the console. Delete them from your cfg anyway 😛
