1) Locate the file Quake4Config.ini. <code>Program Files\id Software\Quake 4\q4base</code>
 +
 +
2) Make a backup of this file, then use a text program such as notepad to edit it.
 +
 +
3) Change <code>seta r_customHeight "xxx"</code> and <code>seta r_customWidth "xxxx"</code> to desired resolution
 +
 +
4) You have to change r_mode to "-1" to get the custom resolutions to work: <code>seta r_mode "-1"</code>
 +
 +
5) This is were you select your correct aspect ratio. <code>"0" is 4:3</code>, <code>"1" is 16:9</code> or <code>"2" is 16:10</code>
