Can use these widescreen modes in duke3d with the attached utility.

duke3d has no problem with flickering in 1024x576 like quake.

Wouldn't it be easier to just edit duke's cfg file? or does this utility modify the executable?

I find using the utility is faster/easier than opening the config with an editor, move to resolution lines, edit, save, exit, but if that's what you prefer doing..
