All language subtitles for Modifying Doom 3 to Wide Screen (1080 x 1920)(720P_60FPS)

[Music]

so you bought doom three admittedly an

older game and you put it on your brand

new computer that has a widescreen

monitor on it and you pop up in the game

and you see this so it looks good but

it's letterbox in my case I'm running

1080 by 1920 I want this thing to fit

the entire screen originally I thought

it was simply a matter of going into the

options and looking at screen size and

changing that but as we can see sadly we

don't have our setting just for the heck

of it we can change it to 16 by 12 under

to apply changes but unfortunately that

particular setting is still going to

give us this letterbox we don't want

that so what to do well we're gonna get

out of the game so there are at least

two ways to get doom 3 to run in

widescreen one way is to actually go in

with a text editor and edit the actual

doom config file we'll look at that next

but before we do that let's have a look

to see how we can change that resolution

within the game so let's pop into the

game here real quick

all right so let's just skip over this

loud introduction part alright so once

in game I want to do is open the command

line so we're just going to press ctrl

alt a title key this is on PC by the way

and that's gonna open up this window

here and this is a very powerful

interface that we use for putting in key

valves and various dev commands we're

gonna see this more and more as we get

into videos modding on doom 3 so there's

gonna be three lines that we're gonna

type in here the first one that we want

to put in here is our underscore aspect

ratio and what we want to put in as a

value as a number one now there's

actually three numbers we can put in

here if we put in a zero that's gonna

give us a television aspect ratio of 4:3

if we put in a number one our ratio is

gonna be sixteen by nine which is a

widescreen that's what we want and

finally we want we can't put in a number

two which is gonna give us a display

ratio of 16 by 10 sometimes the game

does default aspect ratio 2:1 but we're

gonna change it just to make sure so

every time you put in a command just

make sure you hit enter you'll see it

turn blue and that means that it took

the next one we're gonna input here is

our underscore custom height and just

make sure that you put in the capital H

because it is case sensitive so we're

gonna put a space there and we're gonna

put 1080 and once again we're gonna hit

enter now one handy little command here

is if you use the arrow keys the up care

would bring the the up arrow it brings

up the last command that we typed in

here it just saves us a few keystrokes

so the next thing we're gonna put in is

our underscore custom width and again

pay attention to the capital W space

1920 we're gonna hit enter and then the

final thing we want to put in here is

our underscore a mode space and we're

gonna put in a negative one make sure

you put the negative one in there very

important otherwise this is not going to

work

so we're gonna hit enter now we're gonna

get out of the command line here simply

by hitting title and let's get out of

Doom three and then once we go back into

it it should be in widescreen and there

it is okay so I'm just gonna restore my

doom three back to pillar box back to

the stock version and then we can take a

look to see how we can do this by

editing the doom config file so just

stay with me and I'll be right back

alright so we've reset are doing three

back into pillar box to the stock

settings and let's have a look to see

how we can change this to widescreen by

editing the doom config file so let's

jump out of here and have a look at that

so here we are we've quit out of Doom

three we're on our desktop I'm running

Windows 10 so we're just gonna go to

file explorer what you want to do is you

want to find where your Steam app is

wherever you've installed that I happen

to installed it on ad drive and you're

looking for a while I've put it in my

downloads folder and this is the one

we're looking for steam apps yours might

be in the C Drive find your steamapps

folder basically pop that open you want

to go into common and your games should

be listed there I've only got doom 3

installed so we're gonna open doom 3 we

want to go into base and just have a

look here to see the file folder that

I'm in once we're in here we should be

able to find a file called doom config

don't get a mixed up with the config

file doom configures the one we want

it's a simple text file we're gonna do a

little bit of editing and it just four

lines first thing to do is to back that

up in case you start modifying your game

files and it you know basically it blows

up your game and it breaks the game and

you can't run it you can always restore

so I'm gonna copy that file I'm gonna

paste it just here onto my desktop I

don't normally put files on the desktop

but for illustrative purposes we'll just

stick it there so again you can always

put it back into this folder in case you

break this one so we're gonna pop this

open if you have a problem opening it in

Windows right click on your mouse left

click open with any text editor will do

even simple WordPad just to show you how

easy

so we're gonna pop where pat open we're

gonna edit four lines you can see

there's a few commands in here you can

scroll down try and find these lines

like a putz or just go ctrl F what we're

doing is just worked for finding

keywords so what we're gonna find first

here is a line called our underscore

custom width so I'm just gonna search

for width fine next and there's the line

that we're looking for so no that's not

actually the line we're looking for

we're looking for that's the one our

custom width you can see we messed

around trying 1600 by 12 it's still give

us that kind of quasi letterbox look so

we're gonna change this so we're running

a width of a serie height of 1080 can't

type today 1080 and 1920 so just change

the height and width there again to

match whatever setting you want I don't

know if all settings work whether you'll

get sort of a wide screen but this

should work 1080 by 1920 so those tools

are done next one we want to find is a

setting called our score aspect ratio so

I'm just gonna search for aspect ratio

one word fine next and there's the one

we're looking for aspect ratio yours

might be defaulting to do something

different but one is what you want now

there's three different numbers you

can't put in here for different aspect

ratios if you type in a zero you get

aspect ratio for two three one is ours

which is 16:9 widescreen that's what we

want

if you're running a display mode you'll

want to put a number two in there which

will give you a 16 by 10 ratio one more

line that we want to edit that's

underscore mode so we're just gonna

search for mode here real quick that's

not the one that's not the one that's

not the one

there it is right there are in the score

mode now yours might default to three or

eight or some other number what we want

to do in here is put minus one make sure

you put minus one otherwise it doesn't

work

and this basically does the game that

when it starts to run that if there's

gonna be a custom setting here of some

sort so we're gonna save that file I'm

just gonna hit ctrl s you can just hit

save here as well so we've just

basically edited four lines and that's

done so that's the configuration file

setup now we're gonna try to go back

into the game to show that it worked but

again the game our sorry GeForce

experience might just go wonky if I try

to go from desktop to game but we'll try

it so anyway so go back into the game

Doom 3 and if all goes right we should

have widescreen glorious old game in

widescreen folks that's that simple so

just be careful when you're messing with

your config files again you can always

go back to your default if you break the

game so if you find doom 3 modding and

level editing interesting we've got a

bunch of videos coming up in a couple of

different series we're gonna also do a

doom 3 walkthrough that's gonna become

an afraid away and we'll be releasing

videos and we're also gonna do a few

more videos on modding doom 3 and we're

gonna definitely delve into that amazing

editor that ships with that game that

same editor that the developers that

it's at it built all kinds of great

games doom 3 resurrection of evil BFG

quake 4 quake Wars Wolfenstein 2009 and

brink 2011 all those major games were

released on the same editor that we've

got access to it's the series gonna be

great for anybody who's interested in

level design especially young people

that don't have a lot of money because

for I bought doom three for a dollar 65

Canadian actually through in

resurrection evil for another I think

it's the dollar fifty so for under four

dollars two great games and that amazed

editor so if you're interested in that

why not subscribe to the channel and hit

that alert button that'll give us when

we have new videos coming up and we're

gonna be publishing those fairly

regularly coming up real soon we're also

planning on doing a playthrough of a

modern game

we've got bf5 that we're looking at or

we might just hold out for Resident Evil

2 the remake that one looks really good

so we're gonna have a place to do that

coming up as well so hope you can join

me and I really appreciate it if you can
