Unfortunately, if your running GLQuake on your Monster3D you can't go above
the 640x480 resolution.  This has to do with the way your Monster3D's
memory is configured.  It has 4MB of ram but this is split into two
separate buffers of 2MB each.  
I've heard about a new card that just came out with 6MB on board but I
can't remember the name off-hand.
If you would like to know all there is to know about GLQuake and the 3DFX
chipset then I would highly suggest a visit to Zanshin's GLQuake Dojo at
