Can some one help me please?

Im trying to figure out how to resize my game to 1600x1200 and I can't quite understand the readme.

"1) Command-line options.

Once the game is installed (see INSTALL in this directory), you can run it by
changing to its directory and typing './warzone'. Here's a few of the most
common command line options :
--fullscreen : runs in a full-screen window
--window : runs in a window
--viewport WIDTHxHEIGHT : runs at WIDTH times HEIGHT resolution, replace WIDTH
and HEIGHT with your dimensions of choice. Beware, though,
as it needs to be a resolution supported by your X server.

Note that you do need to type the dash in front of the option, like this :
./warzone --fullscreen --viewport 1280x960
(this is my prefered mode).

The fullscreen/window modes and the resolution are stored, so they only need to
be specified once, or when you want to change them. So,
./warzone
will start in fullscreen and in 1280x960 because this is what I specified just
before (remember ?).

For more commandline options see: http://wz2100.net/wiki/user:command_line_options

If you are on Linux and using X11, you can dynamically switch between windowed
mode and fullscreen using ALT+ENTER at any time.


I cant figure out where to type the ./warzone can someone please help.

Also i was wandering where do you guys go to play multiplayer.  Does anyone use gamespy anymore , or is there a different program that people use now?

that wiki entry is too linux-orientated,so it's not very helpful for users on other operating systems.

Under windows you just need to create a shortcut,then right click on it and choose 'properties',then add the command line options to the target field outside the double quotes,e.g:

"C:\Warzone\warzone.exe" --resolution 1600x1200 --fullscreen --cheat

'./warzone' is equal to windows/dos 'start warzone.exe' in console,basically it tells the OS to treat the file as executable program.So you can ignore the './warzone' part if you are not running linux.

thanks for the help.
but what about multiplayer.  Where do you guys place online?

[Chojun]

What is the "viewport" command line switch?

[Serman]

What is the "viewport" command line switch?

the former command line switch for "resolution"

now removed.

what about multiplayer , lol?

There are probably 20-25 players who play on gamespy, but never more than 10 at a time are on usually.  This is only for version 1.10 of the original game however.  It may be possible to have gamespy add a new Lobby for 2.07, but I'm not sure if anyone's asked them yet.  It would be possible to use the existing WZ2100 lobby as well, as long as everyone in a game was using the same version and had gamespy pointing to the right place for 2.07.

Gamespy only runs on windows. And we won't 'outsource' the lobby handling.
