winquake glquake and quakeworld add the following command line switches
allocate 32mb ram, screen res 1024x768
-heapsize 32000 -width 1024 -zone 1024
e.g. winquake -heapsize 32000 -width 1024 -zone 1024

hope this helps, peace

Oh..my bad...This is the original quake right? I really didn't know
that you could use that resolution in original quake. Seems kinda
high, right?

In Quake? Resolution changes had to be on the cmd line. No way to change it in
the game. Remember when Quake was released in 1996 there was no such thing as
hardware accelerated video cards.

That's GlQuake you're talking about - a completely different animal.

Quake and WinQuake provide support for changing the resolution within
the game itself.  The GUI provides a list of available screen modes
where you can set, test, and save a desired resolution on the screen.

WinQuake also supports choosing wheteher to use a windowed display to
a fullscreen display (although the resolution changes isn't fully
stable.)
