Graphics
set com_maxfps <value>
Sets a top limit for fps. It's basically the number of frames of the game you see in a second. Clamp it to 76 or 125. The default is 85. If you have a decent computer, set it to 125.
set cg_wolfparticles 0
set cg_impactparticles 0 (nq)
set cg_smokeparticles 0 (nq)
set cg_trailparticles 0 (nq)
Turns of explosion effects you see from heavy weapons, grenades and air-strikes/arty. Wolfparticles has been broken down into 3 cvars in NQ.
set r_texturemode <value>
(low quality): GL_NEAREST
(good quality): GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_NEAREST
(great quality): GL_LINEAR_MIPMAP_LINEAR
(good quality): GL_LINEAR
Set it to GL_NEAREST for best performance but ugly textures.
set cg_atmosphericeffects 0
Turns off rain/snow on some maps.
set r_subdivisions 999
- -
set cg_shadows 0
Turns off shadows.
set cg_drawmuzzleflash 0
Turns off the muzzle flash you see from the weapon when you fire. This can be distracting and shadow your cross hair. This is no quarter specific.
Network
set rate <n>
Limits are 2500 - 25000. Faster connection (not the download speed but your latency) ==> higher rate
set cl_maxpackets <n>
The number of updates the client sends to the server. Max is 100. There's a nice reading behind this and the number of frames you send. I'll update this later.
set snaps <n>
The number of updates the server sends you! Should be between 20 and 40. Slow(high latency/high 'ping') => low value and vice versa.
set cl_timenudge <n>
If you have irregular ping, this would help the client 'predict' the next action. If you have a normal connection leave it at 0. Try negative values for you to see it in action.
The 'set' before these cvars is optional. Once bound all the settings are written to your noquarter/<profilename>/etconfig.cfg file. You could also do a /writeconfig myconfig.cfg to write it to a separate file. I would suggest manually overwriting your etconfig.cfg file. For some of the video parameters, a vid_restart might be required.
