Individualised Posted March 30, 2023 (edited) It's that time again. Bought Quake 3 on Steam, but the Windows version doesn't play nicely with Proton (1920x1080 doesn't work and causes the game to be stuck in a small, cropped, borderless window at the top left of the screen). Unlike with Quake 2, information on Quake 3 source ports seems to be a bit more scarce. So I'm asking the same as my last topic on Quake 2. Any recommendations?

Individualised Posted March 30, 2023 Quake3e seems to be what I want. Unfortunately though, I seem to get graphical glitches on the Lightmap lighting mode: I'm on Intel IRIS XE graphics if that makes any difference. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post

Nah that's just competition-level lighting to make you frag better. Edited March 30, 2023 by vyruss 4 Quote Share this post Link to post

vyruss Posted March 31, 2023 (edited) 11 hours ago, Individualised said: I gather this is a common issue? In all seriousness it looks to be a graphics driver issue just from observation... What renderer are you using, and what display manager are you using? I know you've mentioned your distro in the past but I can't be arsed to look that up. I am by no means knowledgeable at all about these things in a *nix environment (Linux is for servers and Windows is for gaming, both my wrong opinions) but we might want to take a look at it from the bottom up. Out of the kindness of my own time I've tried to see if there's some common denominator we can point to without much luck yet.

Individualised Posted March 31, 2023 Managed to fix it. I was using the Vulkan executable, which I guess doesn't play nice with integrated graphics. Switched to the OpenGL executable and everything is fine now! 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
