Had exactly the same problem.

seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customwidth "x"
seta r_customheight "x"

add this into your config. Between the "" you have to add your resolution.
it should work :wink:

Had my friend add it to his etconfig, but it didn't change anything. Any other ideas?
His resolution is 1366*768 if that is of any help?

Don't put it in his cfg. Open the console while ingame and write:

seta r_customwidth
seta r_customheight
seta r_mode -1

Done.
