Not for me. I cant use resolution 1920*1200. I see only part of screen.
I cant use Alt+Tab for switch to another apps on computer.

well, the resolution you can change it I guess, what's the resolution of your monitor? with the provided files you can just open the console and do \r_mode 6 followed by \vid_restart to get 1024x768 which I hope it should work on your setup. if opening the console is not a option then you can simply edit your ufconfig something config file inside your unfreeze directory and change to the appropriate r_mode setting for your monitor there. the alt+tab problem I guess is related with the wrong graphic settings, I mean, it's working here and besides, that's a operative system level function not of any app.

I use:
seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customheight "1200"
seta r_customwidth "1920"
seta r_customaspect "2"
in my old Q3. autoexec.cfg

In this version I've tried use my autoexec.cfg. Dont work.
Also I I've tried change " ufconfig something config file inside your unfreeze directory". No result.

In console I I've tried \r_mode 5, \r_mode 6................. \r_mode 18. \r_mode 19 is mistake.

btw 1920x1200 is r_mode 18 here, if you want that resolution all you have to do is r_mode 18. are you sure you're running the game from the package I linked you and that you haven't put any more files (beside the pak0.pk3) inside it? also to be safe please try just double double clicking the exe as-is without any further configuration and report if that throws some error.

ok, thanks for the feedback. that's rare, have you tried if opening the console on that screen, just like that, and doing r_mode 18 followed by vid_restart results in the same problem?

mmmmm does your computer have various graphic cards? do you have latest graphic card drivers installed? are your graphic card drivers configured to scale, keep aspect or maintain images size?

ok, though I don't really see why it shouldn't work, I just tested it here with several different resolutions and it's working for me. likely there must be something mis-configured/mis-installed on your system/installment. btw just to be safe, could you try, without further files being installed, if running the ioq3v6 on windowed mode (r_mode 8 then r_fullscreen 0 then vid_restart) display a proper 1280x720 windowed game or throws same error?

As admin said when you unzip you only need the pak file and not use original quake3 exe otherwise something maybe not compatible or setting

nop, now I can tell you that you're doing it wrong, that screen isn't taken from a windowed game, that screen is taken from the same (likely 720p that scale wrongly on your graphic drivers/display) fullscreen game. look, let's try simpler, download the attached stock cfg with the r_mode set for 1920x1200 and put it on your unfreeze folder overwriting your current one. let me know if that finally fixed that.

ah wait you changed your screen, yes that time that's windowed and that doesn't throw error, apparently it renders ok. btw re-entering full screen from there also breaks? if it does try the cfg I posted previously.
