Windowed Mode

[St0rmSlaSh]

Hey guys! I had a question, so I go on ts3 a lot while I play ET, so I was wondering how I can make ET take 1/2 of the screen and ts3 take the other half. I already tried alt + enter but I can't make it bigger :/ If anybody can help with this problem, I would very much appreciate it. Thx!

Use math, and calculate area you want(divide from your desktop resolution). I recommend leaving 4:3 aspect ratio.

 

r_mode "-1"

r_customheight "valuehere"

r_customwidth "valuehere"

r_fullscreen "0"

 

If you don't have own config write seta before each cvar.

 

Edit:

vid_xpos "0"

vid_ypos "0"

and example, I have 1920x1080 so 1/2 screen would be 960 width and height: 720 in 4:3 aspect ratio.

You can try your own values and use r_customaspect (0, 1, 2)

So I have the default resolution on ET, So just enter in the height and width of that resolution divided by 2?

Nope. Check what's your desktop resolution, not your game. Then divide width by 2 and enter it here http://size43.com/jqueryVideoTool-4x3.html you'll get height so you have 4:3 ratio resolution.

As I said in edit, feel free to test out different values and find what suits you best.

You need to rerender your cgame -> vid_restart
