How to Run ET at Any Custom Resolution (1080p or more) - Enemy Territory

[Entanglement]

Hey guys, i don't know if this is just a repetition, i have looked into the tutorial section and didn't find such a tutorial, so if this is just a repetition please forgive me, anyway let's get into it.

If you're not playing ET at the resolution it should be played at (the resolution of your monitor), than this is for you.

First go to Et shortcut ( from where you run the game ) and click Properties and then go to Shortcut tab. You should see something like this This (image). Now go to Target where you should see the following code :

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\et.exe"

Now we want to add something to that code, but first let's make the code we want to add, the following is an example of my monitor running at 1600x900.

 +r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "1600" +r_customheight "900" +cg_fov "115" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart

So if your monitor is running at 1920x1080, it would be :

 +r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "1920" +r_customheight "1080" +cg_fov "115" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart

i'm sure you get it by now, you just have to replace those numbers by the ones that your monitor runs at, alright now that our code is ready, just add it after the first code given above, so the final format would be :

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\et.exe" +r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "YOUR NUMBER" +r_customheight "YOUR NUMBER" +cg_fov "115" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart

As far as I know, you won't get fullscreen at 1920x1080 with a 2k monitor - it needs to be 2560x1440.

I have a 2k screen and et works in full screen with no troubles at any resolution 1440p/1080p/720p 😉

Ah yeah I was thinking he had it in windowed mode for some reason. Gotta to learn to read 😛.

 

Roro, if you set it to 2560x1440 and it still gives you trouble, check that you have windows scaling turned off. I've seen people have that issue quite a few times.

Hey I know this is an old thread but I did have a question.

I got it to work in 1080p so thank you. However in game I can't see all of the menu's it's like I am zoomed in.

What am I missing?

Hi!

 

what is your resolution? you run it in fullscreen or windowed mode?

How did you got it to work in 1080p? you changed it in your cfg or in your ET shortcut? Can you copy / paste the modification you made plz

Hey thank you for getting back to me. I figured it out.

Windows 10 Scaling was set to %125 dialing that back to %100 fixed it,

I can't wait to play again.

I used the ET shortcut.... "C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\New folder\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territory\et.exe" +r_mode "-1" +r_customwidth "1920" +r_customheight "1080" +cg_fov "115" +set com_hunkmegs "768" +vid_restart

That would have been my second guess windows scaling

 

Glad you figured it out and can play with us
