Hi. I see that you have to change the resolution in the command line. What exactly do I need to type if I want width of 1920 and BPP of 32?

I tried this, and got an error:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\GOG Galaxy\Games\Quake\Glquake.exe" -width 1920 -bpp 32

I appreciate any help on this newb question!

-height is missing

I tried with with -height 1080 included, but am still getting this error:


wglCreateContect failed

If there is an opengl32.dll in the game or baseq2 folder, try to rename it.

Hi Guter. Yes a file with that name IS in the Quake folder.
Why is it necessary to rename it?

Anything specific I should rename it to?

Shoot, tried it, but the game didn't start. I mean it launched, then just vanished. Tried it a couple times.

Any other thoughts? I appreciate you trying to help me.

If you google for the error message "wglCreateContect failed", you will get a lot of hits.
They all point at having the wrong opengl driver in use. What's your gfx card and driver version?
