Crytime.504: Anything I copy and paste doesn't work with any of them. The graphics are the same crap as default :(

(Finally working...)

But I still don't understand why they didn't fix it in the game if it's a known fact

infradeath: yeah, it needs to be patched.

you can also create or edit autoexec.cfg in the /q4base folder where quake4config.cfg resides - or - just paste the tweaks into the autoexec.cfg.

in autoexec.cfg at the end add the line "exec tweaks.cfg".

seta sys_lang "english"
exec tweaks.cfg

then create a file by the name of tweaks.cfg, paste the tweaks and place it in the same directory.

when q4 launches it will execute autoexec.cfg and then tweaks.cfg.

ive added a echo "tweaks loaded" at the end for confirmation.

when the tweaks have been loaded typ "vid_restart" to restart the game and apply all changes.

echo "tweaks loaded"
Hi, I am noob in all this. In Q4base folder, there is autoexec.cfg.

Will it work if I just paste below the english, all form use occlusion to jitter "0" ? Or do I also need to paste the tweaks loaded in that same cfg file?
The patch version mentions 1.4.3. I want the maxed gfx and at 1080p. Eveytime the resolution resets :(

you must lock the config file from windows explorer to read only after you made all your settings so that quake4 can not reset the config and the resolution anymore upon the next restart of the game.

yes, you can paste everything from the updated config at the end of autoexec.cfg or inside quake4config.cfg. you can also leave out or modify single commands.

my config will give you best graphics, best performance and best stability. its best to include and apply everything from the config to the game.

the echo is in there so that the user can tell whether the config has been loaded and processed or not.

you can also make a new file in notepad, paste the config from the forum and save it as tweaks.cfg. then copy the tweaks.cfg to where autoexec.cfg is. now you can edit autoexec.cfg and add "exec tweaks.cfg" or you can open the console ingame and and enter "exec tweaks.cfg" (without " ").

when the tweaks have been loaded typ "vid_restart" in console to restart the game and apply all changes.

to reset or first configure the game:

1. delete any existing config files (autoexec.cfg & quake4config.cfg) but place the tweaks.cfg in the same folder
2. launch the game and let it create an initial config file (quake4config.cfg will be created)
3. while ingame / in menu make all your settings and adjustment via the games options menu (hit alt+enter to switch between fullscreen and windowed mode if there are issues (quake4config.cfg will be created and modified))
4. when you bring up the console with ^ you can alt-tab and let the mouse leave the game window more easily
5. while still ingame from console exec tweaks.cfg, changes should be written to quake4config.cfg
6. when all the config has been done, exec vid_restart from console
7. after that close the game and lock the quake4config.cfg file from windows explorer to read only before next launch of the game

when you make changes from inside the game via the options menu for example or when you run other configs from the console all the changes should get written to the base config file quake4config.cfg.

be aware that tweaks.cfg should only be applied after you made all basic settings complete. when you make changes from the options menu after tweaks.cfg has been applied it will overwrite these changes again and you need to re-run the config again.

so when you exec tweaks.cfg once all the changes should write to quake4config.cfg and stored there.

it would be best to have all your settings defined to and from the quake4config.cfg default file only.

if you want to go sure you can also exec tweaks.cfg and vid_restart once before your gaming session.

if there are graphical glitches you may also need to run vid_restart sometimes from console while ingame.

autoexec.cfg is not necessary separately but it can still be used to autoexecute commands or configs.

darko84: 1. Simply Download this config file https://www.dropbox.com/s/n6g1qxf8wgdxzbd/quake4config.cfg?dl=0

2. Place it in your '' q4base '' Folder and your good to go.
Worked like a charm.
