Hi,

i tryed to change the resolution for GLQuake 0.98.
With the command line i want to change to 1600x1200x16 .
I tryed different resolutions. For example 800x600x16 work. When i go above the exe crash on startup with:

"Could not initalize GL (wgCreateContext failed)
Make sure you in are 65535 color mode"

Anything above 800x600x32 give me this error. What does it mean?
I tryed different windows color modes 16,32 but doesent help.

I use a voodoo 5500 with p4 3,06GHz and windows98SE .

Anyone can help?

regards
Chris

Is there a OPENGL32.DLL file on the directory where GLQuake is located?

If so, remove it as that one was a MiniGL implementation for older 3Dfx cards.
