Do you mean the video displayed on the screen or recorded to a file?
What Engine drives your Quake needs, today we have several.

Maybe he meant the classic "Video options" in Quake.

If so, and if he meant to change the game resolution, all engines should understand this:
YOUR_Quake.exe -width 1024 -height 1280

(at least I think that those are the video extensions, didnt use them for a long time.)

you use the menus.

if the engine is too old for fancy things like menus, you have to use the commandline, -width FOO and -height BAR or whatever. just make sure your monitor does that resolution.

In Windows 7, create a shortcut to your Quake client exe, it can be any client,then edit that shortcut.

example :

In the TARGET field, add variables here.

D:\Games\Quake\DirectQ.exe -width 1280 -height 1024

as example.


In Windows XP , it would be like this
"D:\Games\Quake\DirectQ.exe" -width 1280 -height 1024

,make sure it goes outside the quotes. (This could be wrong,its been ages since I used XP)
