To use this toggling you must bind a key as follows. bind key "setting !", e.g. in the example above you might use bind b "cl_run !". This method can be used with most settings. The ! is what sets the toggle. | |touchFile | touchFile <file> Command that I am sure has a purpose but I amunaware of it. | |unbind | unbind <key> Remove commands from a key. | |unbindall | unbindall Removes binding configuration from all keys. | |undying | gives you 999 armor and 999 health (cheat codes must be enabled). | |vminfo | vminfo Displays information about the server's virtual machine. | |vstr | vstr <variable> Executes a variable command. | |wait | wait | |writeconfig| writeconfig <filename> Writes the current configuration to the specified file. | |bot_challenge | Make the bot a bit more challenging | |bot_debug | Toggle debugging tool for bot code | |bot_developer | Toggle developer mode for bots | |bot_enable | BOOL 1 Use bots. | |bot_fastchat | BOOL 0 Set bots to chat fast. | |bot_grapple| BOOL 0 Bots use the grappling hook. | |bot_groundOnly| BOOL 0 Bots play on the ground only. | |bot_highlightarea| | |bot_interbreedbots | 10 Number of bots used for goal fuzzy logic interbreeding | |bot_interbreedchar | Bot character to be used with goal fuzzy logic interbreeding | |bot_interbreedcycle | 20 Bumber of matches between interbreeding | |bot_interbreedwrite | File to write interbreeded goal fuzzy logic to | |bot_maxdebugpolys| 128 Max number of polygons available for visualizing things when debugging | |bot_memorydump| Displays memory allocation/use for bots used for debugging | |bot_minplayers| BOOL 0 Bots meet the minimum players until a player joins; Then the bot gets kicked. | |bot_nochat | BOOL 0 Mute bots. | |bot_pause | Debug command to pause the bots | |bot_predictobstacles| Tells bot's to predict an obstacle and turn before running into it | |bot_reachability | This is a debug cvar which does not work in the retail version | |bot_report | Debug command to have the bots report what they are doing in CTF | |bot_reloadcharacters| 0 This cvar if set to 1 disabled bot character file caching. used when creating bot characters while keeping Q3A running. kicking and re-adding a bot will reload the bot character files | |bot_rocketjump| BOOL 1 Toggle determines weather the bots will use the rocket jump technique | |bot_saveroutingcache| Allows the BOT AI to save routes for custom maps in memory | |bot_testclusters | A debug variable for testing BOT's on new terrain maps | |bot_testichat | Used to test the initial bot chats. set this to 1 and add a bot. the bot will spit out all initial chats. | |bot_testrchat | Used to test the reply chats. set this to 1 and add one bot. the bot will always reply and dump all possible replies. | |bot_testsolid | Test for "solid areas" in the .aas file (read the q3r manual) | |bot_thinktime | This is the time in milliseconds between two AI frames.

Binary Switch, 1-stats, 2-screenshot, 4-demo, 8-team weap stats, 16-all stats. Add up features you want, i.e. 31 does everything | |cg_autoswitch | BOOL 1 Set this to 0 to disable auto switching of collected weapons. This setting won't affect performance, but I'm sure no-one wants to switch from the Photon launcher to an I-MOD just because they walked over it. | |cg_bigFont | | |cg_blood| | |cg_blueTeamName | | |cg_bobpitch| BOOL 0 The amount of pitch movement in the bobbing up and down you do when you move about. This setting determines your pitch up while moving. Leave it at the default value or 0 to remove the movement. | |cg_bobroll | BOOL 0 The amount of rolling in the bobbing up and down you do when you move about | |cg_bobroll | This setting determines how much you roll back & forth while moving. Leave it at the default value or 0 to remove the movement. | |cg_bobup| 0.005/1 0.01 The amount of bobbing up and down you do when you move about. This setting determines how much you bob up while moving. Leave it at the default value or 0 to remove the movement. | |cg_brassTime | 0/10000 2500 Length of time for cartridges to lie on the floor. Set it to 0, disable ejected shell effects and gain fps. | |cg_buildScript| | |cg_cameraMode | | |cg_cameraOrbit| Change the step or increment units of the orbit rotation from one angle how much of a step to next angle | |cg_cameraOrbitDelay | 0/100 50 Change the rate at wich the camara moves to the next orbit position the higher the number the slower | |cg_centertime | Sets how long messages are displayed in the center of the screen (3 seconds by default). The messages obstruct your vision and repeat the function of the frag counter. | |cg_clientLog | BOOL 0 Creates a logfile of the console while you play. | |cg_crosshairHealth | BOOL 0 Recolor your crosshair to show health status | |cg_crosshairPulse| BOOL 1 Pulse the crosshair when you pickup an item. | |cg_crosshairSize | 1/50 24 Size of your corsshair | |cg_crosshairX | 1/50 0 Horizontal offset for crosshair | |cg_crosshairY | 1/50 0 Vertical offset for crosshair | |cg_currentSelectedPlayer | | |cg_currentSelectedPlayerName | | |cg_Customloc | enter the name of your custom location names file here | |cg_damageDraw | BOOL 1 Displays red sploges on screen when u get hit | |cg_damageKick | BOOL 1 Shakes the screen when u get hit | |cg_deadBodyFilter| BOOL 0 Players dissapear as soon as they die, no dead bodies lying about or dying animations. | |cg_debugAnim | | |cg_debugEvents| | |cg_debugPosition | | |cg_deferPlayers | BOOL 1 Only loads new player models when u die or look at scores. Set this to 1 to defer loading of new models for people that join games until you get killed. Then the new player model will be loaded. Don't set this to 0 unless you want to lag a little when new players join & their model gets loaded. | |cg_draw2D | BOOL 1 Give this a value of 1 to enable 2d items to be drawn. Items such as the HUD would fall into this category so leave this enabled. | |cg_draw3dIcons| BOOL 1 Enables/Disables in-game 3D icons (your head, armour, last shot by etc.). On by default. Disabling can decrease performance on low spec machines. Toggles the drawing of the 3D ammo, skin and armor icons. Set it to 0 and gain fps | |cg_drawAmmoWarning | BOOL 1 Displays Ammo Warning when running low. A value of 1 enables the low-ammo warning display. 0disables it. | |cg_drawAttacker | BOOL 1 Displays Last Attacker at top right | |cg_drawCrosshair | 0/10 5 Choose your crosshair 1-10. A value of 0 will remove the crosshair, which will make aiming making more difficult. 1enables the crosshair. Leave this setting alone. | |cg_drawCrosshairNames | All Players - 1/Off - 0/Own Team - 2 1 Draws the name of the person in your sights above the crosshair. Set this to 1 to allow the name of the targeted person or item to appear. 0 will disable this. It's probably best to set this to 1, particularly in multiplayer games. | |cg_drawDecals | BOOL 0 Show custom graphics (like osp logo) on map surfaces (walls/floors) during warmups | |cg_drawFPS | BOOL 0 Displays game Frame Rate in Frames per Second. Off by default. Displaying the Frame Rate constantly can decrease performance on low spec machines. A value of 1 will enable the display of a small counter on the screen showing your current frame rate. This may help you in tweaking your game for the best performance/image quality trade off. | |cg_drawFriend | BOOL 1 Draws a triangle over the heads of your team m8s | |cg_drawGun | BOOL 1 Draw Own Weapon (or not). Set this to 1 to enable weapons to be shown on your screen. A setting of 0 will improve FPS but no weapon will be drawn. Visibility will improve a little with this but you'll want to know what weapon you have. I'd recommend leaving this set to 1. A value of 2 will draw the gun without bobup | |cg_drawIcons | BOOL 1 Displays Icons (or not) | |cg_drawPing| BOOL/On (Coloured) 2 0 Displays game ping. Off by default. | |cg_drawRewards| BOOL 1 Displays icons for excellent, impressive etc | |cg_drawSnapshot | BOOL 1 | |cg_drawStatus | BOOL 1 Displays Health/Armour/Ammo status bar. Draws your health status. One that will increase your fps (not noticeably) if turned off - 0.

Off by default. Switching on the timer can decrease performance on low spec machines. The setting of 1 decreases your fps a wee yet helps you to orientate in time (ie to anticipate the respawn of valuable items and to be aware of how much time is left). The respawn time of an item can be set by the designer and may vary from map to map. | |cg_enableBreath | | |cg_enableDust | | |cg_enableOSPHUD | BOOL 0 Enables the OSP hud configuration | |cg_enemyColors| 2222 Set the model colour of your enemy | |cg_enemyModel | keel/pm Your Enemy's player models | |cg_errorDecay | | |cg_execVstr| Enter the name of a vstr to be run on connection to a server | |cg_fallKick| BOOL 1 Shakes the screen when u land from a height | |cg_float| BOOL 0 Makes the scores display 'float' | |cg_followkiller | BOOL 0 Follows the killer of the person you are following in spectate mode | |cg_followpowerup | BOOL 0 Switches from currenty followed player to the player who picks up the power up | |cg_followviewcam | BOOL 0 If in viewcam mode, will switch viewcams to follow a player | |cg_footsteps | BOOL 1 Enables/Disables footstep sounds (cheat protected). Default is on. | |cg_forceColors| BOOL 0 Forces Team colors to be same as your the colours you set with cg_enemycolors | |cg_forceModel | BOOL 0 Everybody has the same model as you. Setting this to 1 forces all players to use the same model in multiplayer. This can improve performance by reducing texture memory usage (only 1 player model is used for all players), although there'll be no way to distinguish between players. I'd recommend leaving this at 0 unless you are using a graphics card with a low amount of video memory. | |cg_fov | 10/170 90 The field of vision value is in degrees (default 90, maximum 160). Recommended values are 100 to 120: broader view, the enemy not too small, railing more accurate. | |cg_gibs | BOOL 1 Enables/Disables gibs when someone gets blown to bits. On by default. Disabling increases performance on low spec machines. | |cg_gun_frame | | |cg_gun_x| | |cg_gun_y| | |cg_gun_z| | |cg_hud_crosshairTeamInfo | BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_drawPickup| BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_fragMessage | BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_graphs | BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_statusbarStyle | 0/16 0 | |cg_hud_teamBackground | BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_weaponList| BOOL 1 | |cg_hud_weaponListBackground | BOOL 0 | |cg_hud_weaponListDrawAll | BOOL 0 | |cg_hud_weaponListFlash | BOOL 0 | |cg_hudFiles| ui/hud2.txt | |cg_ignore | | |cg_impactvibration | BOOL 1 ???? | |cg_inGameVideo| BOOL 1 Enables/Disables in game video screens. On by default. Disabling can decrease performance on low spec machines. | |cg_lagometer | Lower Right - 1/Upper Right - 2/Off - 0 1 Give it a value of 1. This will enable the Lagometer, which will aid you in diagnosing & improving your online gameplay. The lagometer is displayed in the bottom right of your screen & looks like this. The lagometer is effectively split into 2 sections, top & bottom. I'll deal with the top section first. The top section shows world updates. Yellow is bad indicating dropped frames; Blue is good & indicates no frames are being dropped. Information on this line should be used to tweak your snaps "x" setting.The bottom indicates packets received. The Green indicates packets received, which is good. Red indicates lost packets, which is bad. Yellow indicates incomplete packets which is also bad. Information on this line should be used to tweak your rate "x" setting. | |cg_lightningImpact | BOOL 1 ???? | |cg_marks| BOOL 1 Enables/Disables marks left by shots hitting walls, floors etc. On by default. Disabling can decrease performance on low spec machines. Set to 1 to enable marks on the ground/walls being displayed. A setting of 0 may improve performance a little. Although this is somewhat dependant on how bad your aim is. I'd recommend setting this to 0 for online play. | |cg_MaxlocationWidth | 0/20 16 Sets maximum locationlength for teamoverlay and teamchat. | |cg_muzzleFlash| BOOL 1 Gun Muzzle flashes when u shoot | |cg_nochatbeep | BOOL 0 Enables/Disables the beep heard when chat is displayed. Default is off, enabling will turn off the chat beep. | |cg_nomip| BOOL 0 ???? | |cg_NoMOTDDisplayDuringDemo| BOOL 0 removes the message of the day from demo playbacks | |cg_noPlayerAnims | BOOL 0 Enable to stop player models being animated | |cg_nopredict | | |cg_noProjectileTrail| BOOL 0 Stops the Display of Rocket Trails | |cg_noTaunt | BOOL 0 Stops taunting from opponents | |cg_noVoiceChats | BOOL 0 | |cg_noVoiceText| BOOL 0 | |cg_obeliskRespawnDelay | | |cg_oldCTFsounds | BOOL 0 Enables/Disables the old Capture The Flag sounds. Default is off. | |cg_oldPlasma | BOOL 1 Old Style Plasma | |cg_oldRail | BOOL 1 Set Old Style Rail (Beam) | |cg_oldRocket | BOOL 1 Old Style Rocket Trails | |cg_oversampleMouse | BOOL 0 ???? Mouse Smoothing | |cg_paused | | |cg_pmove_fixed| | |cg_pmove_msec | | |cg_predictItems | Set it to 0. This controls whether the Client or Server decides if an item has been collected. When set to 1 you may be incorrectly led to believe you collected an item when you did not. Those on high bandwidth connections would probably be best of setting this to 0. | |cg_q3compScoreboard | BOOL 0 | |cg_railTrailTime | 0/1000 300 Length of time for rail trail to remain visible. | |cg_recordSPDemo | | |cg_recordSPDemoName | | |cg_redTeamName| | |cg_runpitch| 0/1 0 The amount of pitch movement when you move about. This setting determines your pitch while running. Leave it at the default value or 0 to remove the movement. | |cg_runroll | 0/1 0 The amount of rolling movement when you move about. This setting determines how much you roll back & forth while running. Leave it at the default value or 0 to remove the movement. | |cg_scorePlums | BOOL 1 Enables/Disables floating score plums. On by default. | |cg_scoreTransparency| 0/1 1 | |cg_shadows | 0-2 1 Controls quality of shadows. Normal by default. Realistic shadows need a BEAST machine. Turning off shadows can increase performance on low spec machines. For realistic shadows you must also set r_depthbits to 24 and r_stencilbits to 8. No Shadows - 0/Normal Shadows - 1/Realistic Shadows - 2. A setting of 0 disables shadows (recommended). 1 enables, basic, circular shadows. 2 will enable volumetric shadows (You must also set r_stencilbits "8"). Enabling shadows will reduce performance. | |cg_showmiss| BOOL 0 ???? | |cg_showPlayerLean| BOOL 1 Show Player leaning animations | |cg_simpleItems| BOOL 0 Enables/Disables pickup models. Off by default. Enabling this will display pickups as 2D icons instead of 3D animated models and increase perfomance on low spec machines. A value of 1 will disable the display of 3d models for items, instead using 2d icons in their place, this may increase frame rate on older videocards. 0enables the display of 3d models for items, which will make image quality a little better. | |cg_singlePlayer | | |cg_singlePlayerActive | | |cg_smallFont | | |cg_smoke_sg| BOOL 1 Smoking Shotgun | |cg_smokegrowth_gl| 1/32 2 Rate of Growth of Grenade Smoke | |cg_smokegrowth_rl| 1/32 2 Rate of Growth of Rocket Smoke | |cg_smokeradius_gl| 1/32 8 Radius of Grenade Smoke | |cg_smokeradius_rl| 1/32 8 Radius of Rocket Smoke | |cg_smoothClients | | |cg_stats| BOOL 0 Displays game snapshot stats | |cg_statScrollTime| 0/1 0.15 | |cg_stereoSeparation | 0/1 0 | |cg_stereoSeparation | | |cg_swapSkins | BOOL 0 Swaps skins of yourself and enemy | |cg_swingSpeed | | |cg_synchronousClients | | |cg_teamChatHeight| 0/20 0 | |cg_teamChatsOnly | BOOL 0 | |cg_teamChatTime | 0/20000 0 | |cg_teamOverlayUserinfo | | |cg_teamRails | BOOL 1 Rail inner color as team color | |cg_thirdPerson| BOOL 0 Switches to thirdperson view | |cg_thirdPersonAngle | 0/360 0 Sets camera angle when in thirdperson view (Cheat Protected) | |cg_thirdPersonRange | 0/360 40 Sets camera range when in thirdperson view (Cheat Protected) | |cg_timescale | | |cg_timescaleFadeEnd | | |cg_timescaleFadeSpeed | | |cg_tracerChance | | |cg_tracerLength | | |cg_tracerWidth| | |cg_trueLightning | 0/1 0 Sets lightning to be as you fire it (1) or wet spagetti (0) | |cg_useScreenShotJPEG| BOOL 0 Uses JPEG format instead of TGA for screenshots | |cg_viewsize| 0/100 100 Percentage of Screen used for display | |cg_zoomfov | 30/200 40 FOV when in zoom mode | |ch_3waveFont | BOOL 0 | |ch_ColorLocations| BOOL 1 Changes color of locations in teamoverlay to be red or blue if the text Red or Blue is found in the location. | |ch_CrosshairColor| White | |ch_CrosshairNamesLeft | BOOL 0 Draws crosshairnames left of the hud on top of teamchat. | |ch_crosshairTeamInfo| BOOL 1 | |ch_drawFlagNames | 0-4 0 0 - Default/1 - Flag Carrier Name (no Icon)/2 - Flag Carrier Name & Icon/3 - Flag Carrier Name (no Icon) Bottom Right/4 - Flag Carrier Name & Icon Bottom Right | |ch_drawHealthMeters | BOOL 0 | |ch_drawPickup | BOOL 1 | |ch_drawspeed | 0-2 0 Displays players current speed in Units Per Second. 0 - Off/1 - Speedo Top Right/2 - Speedo on Crosshair | |ch_FilterLocationsTeamchat| BOOL 0 Filters location strings out of teamchat | |ch_fragMessage| BOOL 1 | |ch_graphs | BOOL 1 | |ch_InverseTeamChat | BOOL 1 Inverses teamchatwindow. If enabled, msgs arrived first will be drawn on top. | |ch_Obituaries | BOOL 1 Prints player obituraries messages in the console. | |ch_Pickupitem | BOOL 1 Draws the icon and string of items when they are picked up. | |ch_StatusbarFormat | 39094 0 | |ch_statusbarStyle| BOOL 1 | |ch_TeamBackground| BOOL 0 Disables teambackground color in statusbar & teamchat. | |ch_TeamchatOnly | BOOL 0 If enabled, only draws teamchat on the bottom left side of the HUD. It will suppress team chats showing up in the normal upper left chat area. | |ch_TeamCrosshairHealth | BOOL 1 | |ch_Teamoverlay| p12n h/aw l | |ch_weaponList | BOOL 1 | |ch_weaponListBackground| BOOL 1 | |ch_weaponListDrawAll| BOOL 0 | |ch_weaponListFlash | BOOL 1 | |ch_Weaponswitch | 0/10 4 | |cl_activeAction | | |cl_allowDownload | BOOL 0 A setting of 0 disables auto-downloading of maps/models. Set this to 1 to enable it. | |cl_anglespeedkey | | |cl_autoRecordDemo| | |cl_avidemo | 0/200 0 For outputting all frames as screenshots to make AVIs with. When is not 0, the number you enter is the number of frames per second for the output. | |cl_aviFrameRate | | |cl_aviMotionJpeg | | |cl_conXOffset | | |cl_cURLLib | | |cl_debuggraph | | |cl_debugMove | | |cl_downloadMethod| | |cl_forceavidemo | | |cl_forwardspeed | | |cl_freelook| BOOL 1 Enables Mouse Look | |cl_freezeDemo | | |cl_graphheight| | |cl_graphscale | | |cl_graphshift | | |cl_guidServerUniq| | |cl_inGameVideo| | |cl_lanForcePackets | | |cl_maxpackets | This sets the maximum amount of packets that get sent to the server. The default setting is 30, which is fine for V90/56K connections. If you are on a 33.6K modem you should lower this value a little (say to 25). Those on ISDN or faster can set this higher than 30. You may need to experiment a little with it. | |cl_motd | | |cl_motdString | | |cl_mouseAccel | BOOL 0 Mouse Accelleration | |cl_nodelta | A setting of 1 will disable Delta compression. Don't do this for any reason. | |cl_noprint | BOOL 0 Enables/Disables console messages, thats all of em... | |cl_packetdelay| | |cl_packetdup | Set to 1. If you are experiencing packet loss this will allow retransmission of lost packets. Only set this to 0 if you are playing on a LAN (as there should be no packet loss). | |cl_paused | | |cl_pitchspeed | 0/500 140 Pitch Speed | |cl_platformSensitivity | | |cl_punkbuster | BOOL 0 Enables PunkBuster code (added to PR 1.32) required to connect to servers using PunkBuster Anti Cheat Code | |cl_run | BOOL 0 Always Run | |cl_run | BOOL 0 Set this to 1.

A general rule of thumb would be to set this to half your average ping (negative value of course, or else you'd be adding lag). E.g. If you normally have a ping of 200 you should set this to -100. This may help smooth your online gameplay out. | |cl_timeout | | |cl_trn | | |cl_upspeed | | |cl_yawspeed| 0/500 140 Yaw Speed | |cl_znear| 0/5 0 | |cm_noAreas | | |cm_noCurves| | |cm_playerCurveClip | BOOL 1 Allows interaction of player and curved surfaces | |color| 0/9 7 Colour of old rail | |color1 | 0/9 9 New spiral rail Inner Color | |color2 | 0/9 4 New spiral rail Outer Color | |com_altivec| | |com_ansiColor | | |com_blood | BOOL 1 Enables/Disables blood. On by default. Disabling can decrease performance on low spec machines. | |com_buildScript | for automated pak building scripts | |com_cameraMode| | |com_cl_running| | |com_dedicated | | |com_developer | | |com_dropsim| 0.0 to 1.0, simulated packet drops | |com_FirstTime | A value of 1 means that the intro was already played, so it isn't played again. Give it a value of 0 to enable it being played each time you load the game. | |com_fixedtime | | |com_hunkMegs | 32/512 56 Amount of memory to allocate to game. You can use this to set the amount of memory available to Elite Force. A general guideline to setting this value would be 2/3 of RAM. Keep in mind Windows needs about 16MB RAM minimum to run. You should also have closed all other programs before running Elite Force. | |com_introplayed | BOOL 0 Does not play the intro video again if set to 1. | |com_journal| | |com_logfile| 1 = buffer log, 2 = flush after each print | |com_maxfps | 30/200 85 Sets a cap on the maximum FPS. Set to 43 to jump out of trenches. x to sets your maximum frame rate. In Quake 2 this was used to stabilize online connection. This is no longer the case; instead the cl_maxpackets "x" & snaps "x" is used. I'd recommend setting this to 30 when playing online.This will help keep the frame rate constant (no dropping from 60FPS to 30FPS) & will aid in distinguishing between graphics card "lag" & lag in your connection to a server. | |com_minimized | | |com_showtrace | | |com_soundMegs | 8/256 16 How much memory to allocate to the sound system | |com_speeds | shows all stats of a map in debuging mode.

I'd high recommend enabling this. | |m_forward | 0/1 0.25 Mouse forward sensitivity multiplier | |m_pitch | -1/1 0.02 Mouse UP/Down sensitivity (negative number reverses axis) | |m_side | 0/1 0.25 Mouse sideways sensitivity multiplier | |m_yaw| 0/1 0.02 Mouse Left/Right sensitivity | |model| sarge Your player model | |name | CHAR "UnnamedPlayer" Use this to set your player name. e.g. /set name noob | |nav_showall| For map debugging. | |net_ip | "localhost" Address of the server. | |net_noipx | Set this to 0 to enable the use of the IP/SP protocol. You must have IP/SP installed to use this so set it to 1 if you don't. Most Internet servers use UDP (part of the TCP/IP protocol). I'd recommend setting it to 1. | |net_noudp | Set this to 0 to enable the use of UDP, which is part of the TCP/IP protocol. You must have TCP/IP installed to use this so set it to 1 if you don't. Most Internet servers use UDP. I'd recommend setting it to 0. This is only really useful if you play the game solely on an IP/SP network/server. | |net_port| INT 27960 Port of the server. | |net_socksEnabled | BOOL 0 Enable socks support. | |net_socksPassword| CHAR "" Socks password. | |net_socksPort | INT 1080 Socks port. | |net_socksServer | CHAR "" Socks server address. | |net_socksUsername| CHAR "" Socks username. | |noclip | BOOL 0 1=enabled, you can fly and walk through walls at will, but will get stuck on the edges of the map (end of map/last wall on opposite side of infinity. You'll have to self terminate (/kill).(cheat codes must be enabled) | |notarget| Toggle; Makes you invisible (cheat codes must be enabled) | |pmove_fixed| | |pmove_msec | | |qport| | |r_allowExtensions| BOOL 1 global enable/disable of OpenGL extensions | |r_allowSoftwareGL| BOOL 1 Don't abort out if a hardware visual can't be obtained. Set to 1 to allow software rendering of the game. Although this really is an extremely bad idea unless you absolutely cannot run the game with your current video card. Get a new video card if this is the case, or try updating your drivers. Leave it set to 0 at all times. | |r_ambientScale| BOOL 1 | |r_clear | BOOL 0 Force screen clear every frame. A value of 0 fills cracks between textures, 1 makes these visible. 0 is slower than 1 although more pleasing visually. Also for debugging maps-Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_colorbits| 16 bit - 16/24 bit - 24/32 Bit - 32 16 Use this to set the colour depth. Leave it at 16 unless you have a card that supports 32-bit colour output. Performance is slower in 32-bit than 16-bit however. So when you play online be sure to drop this back to 16. Only relevant for fullscreen. | |r_colorMipLevels | BOOL 0 development aid to see texture mip usage | |r_customaspect| BOOL 0 | |r_customheight| 0/1600 1024 | |r_customPixelAspect | | |r_customwidth | 0/1600 1600 | |r_debugLight | | |r_debugSort| | |r_debugSurface| | |r_depthbits| 16 bit - 16/24 bit - 24/32 Bit - 32 16 This sets the colour depth bits per pixel. Valid values are 16 or 32, setting it to 0 will use the same colour depth as the Windows desktop. Selecting 32 (If your video card supports it) will give best image quality, but slowest peformance. | |r_detailTextures | BOOL 0 Set it to 1 to will improve texture quality when up close. Setting it to 0 will improve performance. | |r_directedScale | | |r_displayRefresh | Use it to set your refresh rate in the game. It is recommended that you set this to the highest refresh rate that your monitor can handle at a given resolution. With vsync enabled this value also limits the highest frame rate you can achieve. You shouldn't set it any higher than the highest refresh rate your monitor can sustain at a given resolution. | |r_dlightBacks | BOOL 0 dlight non-facing surfaces for continuity | |r_drawBuffer | | |r_drawentities| Disable/enable entity rendering. Used to debug maps. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_drawSun | BOOL 0 A setting of 1 enables the sun to be drawn. It won't improve performance much if set to 0 although it will add a little to lighting calculations in areas where the sun shines. I suggest leaving it set to 0 as most maps will be played "in-doors" or have few areas with sunlight (Voyager - Elite Force has no outdoor levels). | |r_drawworld| disable/enable world rendering | |r_dynamiclight| BOOL 0 A setting of 1 will enable the dynamic lighting of maps, e.g. the light surrounding an explosion. Improve performance by setting this to 0, although visual quality will be reduced, although visual quality will be reduced. | |r_ext_compiled_vertex_array | BOOL 0 | |r_ext_compress_textures| BOOL 0 Set this to 0 to disable texture compression support (slower, but better visuals). This is only for S3TC texture compression so if you have an S3 card, are using the 5.xx nVidia drivers or have a Voodoo 3, 4 or 5 installed then you should set this to 1. Texture compression can vastly improve frame rates, although may cause some visual degradation in certain areas of the game. | |r_ext_compressed_textures | these control use of specific extensions | |r_ext_gamma_control | BOOL 0 | |r_ext_max_anisotropy| | |r_ext_multitexture | BOOL 0 Set it to 1 to enable multi-texturing, this can improve performance. 0 will disable it. Also Used to debug maps. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_ext_texture_env_add | BOOL 0 | |r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic| When it is set to 1 image quality can be improved - elements of the scene will appear smoother when viewed at near edge angles. Your video card must support this however. Set x to 1 to disable anisotropic filtering for improved performance, or if your video card doesn't support it. If not supported it will automatically be disabled. | |r_facePlaneCull | BOOL 0 enables culling of planar surfaces with back side test | |r_fastsky | BOOL 0 A setting of 1 will remove the sky texture & portals won't be seen through. I'd recommend leaving this set to 0 unless you're on a really slow system. Also for debugging maps. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_finish| BOOL 0 Setting it to 1 may eliminate lag from input devices (such as keyboard/mouse) at the cost of a few FPS. The default is 0 so only change it to 1 if you experience any controller lag. This ensures proper timing. | |r_flareCoeff | | |r_flareFade| 0/10 7 | |r_flares| BOOL 0 light flares | |r_flareSize| 0/100 40 | |r_fullbright | BOOL 0 Must be set to 0 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart. | |r_fullscreen | BOOL 0 | |r_gamma | 0/5 1.33 Default is 1. Increase this to make the game brighter. The brighter the visuals the more washed out the textures will look (not quite the same as the brightness setting though). This adjusts the RGB colour intensity. Higher values will reduce texture detail by brightening textures up. Performance isn't affected. | |r_glDriver | opengl32 Name of the Open GL driver in use | |r_GLlibCoolDownMsec | | |r_ignore| Used for debugging anything | |r_ignoreFastPath | BOOL 0 Allows us to ignore our Tess fast paths | |r_ignoreGLErrors | BOOL 0 | |r_ignorehwgamma | BOOL 0 Overrides hardware gamma capabilities. Set it to 1 to enable the game itself to set the gamma level to be used. Set it to 0 to disable any in-game gamma settings & use one set by the video card driver instead. Setting it to 0 may make any brightness slider in the game menu ineffective. | |r_inGameVideo | BOOL 0 Controls whether in game video should be draw | |r_intensity| 0/5 1 Brightness Setting ???? | |r_lightmap | BOOL 0 Render lightmaps only | |r_lockpvs | turns off any existing pvs lock: no idea; Used to debug maps. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_lodbias | -10/10 0 Push/pull LOD transitions. his controls the detail level of models. Increase the value to improve performance but reduce detail. Lower the value to increase visual quality but lower performance. 0 is the lowest it may be set. I'd recommend leaving it at the default of 1. 2 is the least detailed but also the fastest. Elite Force models are skeletal so there's no memory savings by using a less detailed setting (higher), just a frame rate improvement. | |r_lodCurveError | 0/300 250 Must be set to 250 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart. | |r_lodscale | | |r_logFile | | |r_mapOverBrightBits | 0/5 2 Brightness Setting ???? | |r_maxpolys | | |r_maxpolyverts| | |r_measureOverdraw| enables stencil buffer overdraw measurement | |r_mode | -1/10 4 video mode | |r_mode | | |r_nobind| turns off binding to appropriate textures | |r_nocull| | |r_nocurves | Set this to 1 to disable curves & vastly improve performance. You may notice visual faults in maps though as a result. I'd recommend setting it to 0. Used to debug maps. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_noportals| BOOL 0 | |r_norefresh| Not a tweak as such although setting to 1 will freeze the screen. Leave it set to 0 at all times. This is included here more as a warning than anything else. | |r_novis | Disable/enable usage of PVS | |r_offsetFactor| | |r_offsetUnits | | |r_overBrightBits | 0/5 0 Increase this to make the game brighter. The brighter the visuals the more washed out the textures will look. Adjust this to suit your own needs, performance isn't affected either way. If you change this to 0, you should also change r_mapoverbrightbits to 0 as well. | |r_picmip| -10/10 0 A setting of 0 gives best image quality. Setting it higher (up to 4) may improve performance but reduce image quality. I'd recommend leaving this at either 0 or 1. | |r_portalOnly | | |r_primitives | BOOL 0 "0" = based on compiled vertex array existance | |r_printShaders| | |r_railCoreWidth | 1/32 4 Width of Inner Rail (old) | |r_railSegmentLength | 1/32 3 Rail Segment Length (old) | |r_railWidth| 1/32 8 Overall Rail Width (old) | |r_roundImagesDown| 0/5 0 | |r_saveFontData| | |r_shadows | Controls shadows: 0 = none, 1 = blur, 2 = stencil, 3 = black planar projection | |r_showcluster | | |r_showImages | | |r_shownormals | BOOL 0 Draws wireframe normals. Must be set to 0 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart. | |r_showsky | Forces sky in front of all surfaces | |r_showSmp | | |r_showtris | BOOL 0 Must be set to 0 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart.Enables wireframe rendering of the world. Shows all the triangles drawn from the compile process. Use the devmap command to load your map fromt he console for debugging | |r_simpleMipMaps | BOOL 0 | |r_singleShader| Make most world faces use default shader | |r_skipBackEnd | | |r_smp| BOOL 0 Use a value of 1 to enable support for multiple processors, Elite Force Arena does have support for multiprocessors (SMP). In order to get the benefits from SMP, you must be running a SMP capable OS e.g. Windows 2000 & have an SMP capable video card driver combination. Right now, The Detonator drivers for the TNT/GeForce generation of cards are the only ones that are working properly. Leave it at 0 unless you have such a system. | |r_speeds| For counting triangles in map debugging mode. Use the devmap command to load the map first. | |r_stencilbits | 11917 16 Number of desired stencil bits. if you enabled Volumetric shadows above then you'll want to set this to 8. NOTE - Your graphics card must have a stencil buffer to do this, e.g. GeForce or Voodoo 4/5. Voodoo3 does not. 8 bit - 8/16 bit - 16/24 bit - 24/32 Bit - 32 | |r_stereo| BOOL 0 Desired pixelformat stereo flag | |r_subdivisions| 1/100 4 Must be no greater than 80 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart. Use this to set how complex (rounded) the curves will be in maps. A setting of 1 gives the most detailed (smooth) curves. A setting of 999 gives the least smooth curves but improved performance. You should play around with this value for yourself until you find a good balance between performance & detail. | |r_swapInterval| 0/5 0 This is the Elite Force equivalent of vsync. Set it to 1 to enable vsync (recommended). Only set it to 0 when you are benchmarking game performance, this will allow for higher frame rates (than your refresh rate). | |r_texturebits | 11917 16 Sets the bits per texture. A value of 16 for 16-bit colour & 32 for 32bit colour. 32 will give best texture quality. 8 bit - 8/16 bit - 16/24 bit - 24/32 Bit - 32 | |r_textureMode | GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_NEAREST Valid entries are GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_NEAREST (worst), GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST (default),GL_NEAREST_MIPMAP_LINEAR (second best),GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR (best).Setting it to GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR (Trilinear) will give best visual quality. Setting it to the other settings will improve performance, but give increasingly worse image quality. | |r_uiFullScreen| UI is running fullscreen | |r_verbose | Used for verbose debug spew | |r_vertexLight | BOOL 0 Vertex lighting mode for better performance. Set this to 0 if you've enabled Lightmap lighting. Setting it to 1 will enable Vertex lighting, which is faster but uglier. | |r_znear | 0/5 4 Must be set to 4 for OSP servers. Otherwise the correct setting will be applied and your game will vid_restart. | |rate | The default value for this may not be correct for you. Depending on your connection, try changing the value depending on your connection. You can also change this variable during gameplay to suit your needs. If your ping is high you may want to lower your rate. You can substitute in your own keys & rate values, I use 2600 & 3000. Set one low in case your ping starts to rise (or have a lot of yellow/redin the bottom section of the lagometer), this is a sign you may have set it to high for the current server, try increasing it for better results whenever possible. This caps the rate at which your system sends information through your modem. Once again, usually capped by servers. For 56k we recommend 3500-4000, cable use 4500-7000 and dsl and above test it out with your line speed. | |rcon_client_password| | |rconAddress| | |s_2dvolume | sets the maximum volume which 2D sounds are played at. By the nature of the filters being applied to the A3D buffers, they are quieter then their 2D counterparts. Hence it is important to quiet the 2D sounds to make up for this. I'd recommend leaving this at the default value, 0.7. | |s_a3d_weapons | Set it to 1 to enable A3D play weapon sounds. If your soundcard which supports either EA or A3D reverb, you'll get the geometric reverb effect rendered on your weapons. Set this to 0 if your soundcard doesn't support this effect. | |s_alAvailableDevices| | |s_alDevice | | |s_alDopplerFactor| | |s_alDopplerSpeed | | |s_alDriver | | |s_alGain| | |s_alGraceDistance| | |s_alMaxDistance | | |s_alMinDistance | | |s_alPrecache | | |s_alRolloff| | |s_alSources| | |s_ambient | BOOL 1 Ambient looping sounds. Default 1. Background noises. (Cheat Protected) | |s_backend | | |s_compression | BOOL 1 Compressed Sound Samples. Default On. | |s_doppler | 39092 1 Controls level of doppler effect. Default 1. Sound of objects travelling towards you are higher pitched, travelling away is lower pitched. Set to 0 to disable doppler effect. Use this setting to adjust the doppler effect. Valid values for x are from 0 - 10. This is a very sensitive setting. I'd recommend leaving it at the default. | |s_enableA3D| Set it to 1 to enable A3D on supported soundcards. This will improve audio quality (or to be more accurate, the positioning of audio sources).Set x to 1 to disable A3D audio. This will improve performance. | |s_geom_reverb | A value of 1 enables geometric reverb, 0 disables it. Performance will be improved when set to 0. | |s_geometry | A value of 1 enables A3D geometry processing, 0disables it. If you enable this feature then you can also edit the setting below. Enabled is slower however. | |s_initsound| BOOL 1 When set to 1 all audio is enabled. When set to 0 no audio is played. This is completely different to muting the volume levels. Performance will be vastly higher when set to 0 although its only really useful if you want to purely benchmark video card performance in Elite Force. | |s_khz| 11/22 22 Controls the sound quality. Highest quality is 22khz and lowest is 8khz. Setting to low can increase performance on low spec machines. Set to 22 for best sound quality. Set it to 11 for better performance, you should only change it to this if you have an old soundcard (ISA). High Quality - 22/Low Quality - 11/Ultra Low - 8 | |s_loadas8bit | BOOL 1 Enable/Disable 8 bit sounds. Forces the loading of all sounds as 8 bit instead of 16 bit. Forcing 8 bit sound can increase performance on low spec machines. Set this to 0 to improve audio quality. A setting of 1 may improve performance a little but reduce audio quality. | |s_mixahead | 0/1 0.2 Determines how far ahead of playing sounds to mix them. Default 0.2. Different values can solve some sound stuttering problems. Sets the sound mixahead value, changing this value may fix sound stuttering with some soundcards. I'd recommend setting it to 0.2 unless you encounter problems, lower it if you do. | |s_mixPreStep | 0/1 0.05 ????. Default 0.05. Anyone know what this one does? Answers on a postcard... | |s_musicvolume | 0/1 0.25 Main game music volume control. Default 0.25. 1 is highest volume & 0 is no music. Set to 0 to disable playing music in Elite Force. This will of course improve performance & I'd highly recommend doing that. Especially when you're going to play online. | |s_muteWhenMinimized | | |s_numpolys | Sets the maximum polygons to be rendered in A3D. Setting this to 0 is equivalent to s_geometry "0". Valid values are 0 & above. I'd recommend leaving it at the default value, although setting it higher may result in more accurate 3d sound. Performance may be decreased with values too high. | |s_occfactor| Leave it at the default setting, which is 0.5. | |s_occlude | Set x to 1 to enable occlusions. This will improve audio quality (more realistic), although performance will be lower. 0disables occlusions & performance will be improved. | |s_reflect | Set it to 1 to enable audio reflections. This will improve audio quality (more realistic), although performance will be lower. 0disables reflections & performance will be improved. | |s_sdlBits | | |s_sdlChannels | | |s_sdlDevSamps | | |s_sdlMixSamps | | |s_sdlSpeed | | |s_separation | 0/1 0.5 Sets the level of Stereo separation. Default 0.5. Range 0-1. | |s_show | BOOL 0 Enable/Disable display of sound file names as each sound is played. Really for developers only. Is cheat protected, so cheats must be enabled to use this. | |s_testsound| BOOL 0 Enable/Disable sound test mode. Again for developers only. | |s_volume| 0/1 0.8 Main game sound volume control. Default 0.8. 1 is highest volume & 0 is no sound. Use values from 0 to 1 for x to increase/decrease in-game volume. Use your own discretion for this of course. 1 is the maximum, 0 will mute the game. | |s_volumeVoice | Use values from 0 to 1 for x to increase/decrease the volume for voices. Use your own discretion for this of course. 1 is the maximum, 0 will mute voices in the game, which is not recommended. | |scr_conspeed | 0/10000 1000 | |sensitivity| 0/30 5 Mouse Sensitivity | |sex | "male"/"female" "male" Male/Female | |snaps| The default value for this setting may not be correct for you. Depending on your connection, try changing the value depending on your connection. You can change this variable during gameplay to suit your needs. Use this to increase/decrease the amount of snaps (world updates) sent to the client. If your world updates are bad (lots of Yellow in the top half of the lagometer) you should lower your snaps setting. 30 is a good value to begin with for this setting.You can substitute in your own keys & rate values, I use 26 & 30. As shown earlier you'll want to change this according to the how your lagometer is displaying. | |sv_allowDownload | BOOL 1 Allow players to download files. | |sv_cheats | BOOL 1 Allow cheat codes. |

of channels | | s_sdlDevSamps | SDL DMA buffer size override | | s_sdlMixSamps | SDL mix buffer size override | | com_ansiColor | enable use of ANSI escape codes in the tty | | com_altivec | enable use of altivec on PowerPC systems | | com_standalone | Run in standalone mode | | com_maxfpsUnfocused | Maximum frames per second when unfocused | | com_maxfpsMinimized | Maximum frames per second when minimized | | s_backend | read only, indicates the current sound backend | | s_muteWhenMinimized | mute sound when minimized | | in_joystickNo | select which joystick to use | | in_keyboardDebug | print keyboard debug info | | r_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic | anisotropic texture filtering | | sv_dlURL | the base of the HTTP or FTP site that holds custom pk3 files for your server | | net_ip6 | IPv6 address to bind to | | net_port6 | port to bind to using the ipv6 address | | net_enabled | enable networking, bitmask. Add up number for option to enable it: enable ipv4 networking:1, enable ipv6 networking:2, prioritise ipv6 over ipv4:4, disable multicast support:8 | | net_mcast6addr | multicast address to use for scanning for ipv6 servers on the local network | | net_mcastiface | outgoing interface to use for scan | | r_zProj | distance of observer camera to projection plane in quake3 standard units | | r_greyscale | render black and white images | | r_stereoEnabled | enable stereo rendering for techniques like shutter glasses (untested) | | r_anaglyphMode | Enable rendering of anaglyph images {red-cyan: 1 - red-blue: 2 - red-green: 3} To swap the colors for left and right eye just add 3 to the value for the wanted color combination. For red-blue and red-green you probably want to enable r_greyscale | | r_stereoSeparation | Control eye separation. Resulting separation is r_zProj divided by this value in quake3 standard units. See also http://wiki.ioquake3.org/Stereo_Rendering for more information. | | r_sdlDriver | read only, indicates the SDL driver backend being used | ==== VoIP ==== ^ Cvar ^ Description ^ | sv_voip | set to "1" (the default) to enable server-side VoIP support. Set to "0" to disable. Without this, all VoIP packets are refused by the server, which means no one gets to use in-game VoIP. | | cl_voip | set to "1" (the default) to enable client-side VoIP support. Set to "0" to disable. Without this, you will neither be able to transmit voice nor hear other people. | | s_alCapture | set to "1" (the default) to have the audio layer open an OpenAL capture device. Without this set on sound startup, you'll never get bits from the microphone. This means you won't transmit, but you can still hear other people. | | cl_voipSendTarget | a string: "all" to broadcast to everyone, "none" to send to no one, "attacker" to send to the last person that hit you, "crosshair" to send to the people currently in your crosshair, "spatial" to talk to all people in hearing range or a comma-separated list of client numbers, like "0,7,2,23" ... an empty string is treated like "spatial". You can also use a mixed string like "0, spatial, 2, crosshair". This is reset to "spatial" when connecting to a new server. Presumably mods will manage this cvar, not people, but keybind could be useful for the general cases. To send to just your team, or the opposing team, or a buddy list, you have to set a list of numbers. | | cl_voipUseVAD | set to "1" to automatically send audio when the game thinks you are talking, "0" (the default) to require the user to manually start transmitting, presumably with a keybind. | | cl_voipVADThreshold | only used if cl_voipUseVAD is "1" ... a value between 0.0 and 1.0 that signifies the volume of recorded audio that the game considers to be speech. You can use this to trim out breathing or perhaps the sound of your fingers tapping the keyboard and only transmit audio louder than that. You will have to experiment to find the value that works best for your hardware and play style. The default is "0.25", with "0.0" being silence and "1.0" being pretty-darn-loud. | | cl_voipSend | when set to "1", the game will capture audio from the microphone and transmit it, when "0", the game will not. The game can optimize for the "0" case (perhaps turning off audio recording). Lots of things set this on and off, including cl_voipUseVAD, so you probably should not touch this directly without knowing what you're doing, but perhaps mods can make use of it. | | cl_voipGainDuringCapture | This is the volume ("gain") of audio coming out of your speakers while you are recording sound for transmission. This is a value between 0.0 and 1.0, zero being silence and one being no reduction in volume. This prevents audio feedback and echo and such, but if you're listening in headphones that your mic won't pick up, you don't need to turn down the gain. Default is 0.2 (20% of normal volume). You ABSOLUTELY want to make your speakers quiet when you record, if the microphone might pick it up! | | cl_voipShowMeter | Set to "1" (the default) to show a volume meter as you are recording from the microphone, so you can see how well the game can "hear" you. Set to "0" to disable the display of the meter. | | cl_voipCaptureMult | Multiply recorded audio by this value after denoising. Defaults to 2.0 to _double_ the volume of your voice. This is to make you more audible if denoising eats away too much data. Set this to 1.0 to get no change, less to be quieter. |
