Quake (CA) Fundamental Binds

[=peg=]

couse the numbers need to be enclosed in "" and u cant have something like this in ur cfg: "blablabla "blablabal""

HAHAHA Bams funny! But about his alias above.

I'd feel like a loser if I wasn't an administrator and had as many posts as canadian sniper. haha


bind +njump to your jump key (I think thats how you set that up)
alias +njump "+jump;+moveup"
alias -njump "-jump;-moveup"

I've made some improvement's to Bam's alias that allows you to use +movedown & +moveup making you move faster in water vertically. It looks something like this

alias +njump "+jump;wait;+moveup;-movedown"
alias -njump "-jump;wait;+movedown;-moveup"
bind mouse2 "+njump"

I use to use something like this but forgot how I did it for the longest of time and never it much thought. But with the growing number of CA players I've had to learn some new strategties to deal with the growing amount of skill/spam Enjoy! & I hope this helps someone!

so basically after you let go on MOUSE2, you're moving downwards in the water :/ whyyyyyyy?

[Phenom]

Because moving is better then sitting still! even if it is downwards

Your njump alias makes you a sinker

[Phenom]

Personally I feel that if CA/Quake newbies used my suggested water bind that it would make them much more effecient in water, because it would teach them to always be moving, and you can press jump to still move upwards in water at max speed. This keeps you from leveling off in water and giving your enemy a straight shot unless you let yourself sink

P.S

Not only newbies but anyone who generally sucks in water, like myself

alias +njump "+jump;wait;+moveup;-movedown"
alias -njump "-jump;wait;+movedown;-moveup"
bind mouse2 "+njump"

I like how you used moveup and movedown, except I think in this case the wait command doesn't do much except unnoticeably delay quake by a couple milliseconds.

Just so it's clear the bind above replaces the need for pq_moveup. I should have pointed this out when I first posted it.

Is there a command for JoeQuake such as the %l %h %a? I've tried using regular GLPro, but I can't stand how clogged the screen seems to be

I wish. Everyone always asks this and there isn't a way to do it because JoeQuake doesn't support locs.

You could request this feature in the JoeQuake forum located at http://forums.runecentral.com/viewforum.php?f=9

couse DP runs crap unless u trun off all the goodies.. but when u do that, it looks crap.. plus i dont like the fullpitch.. but most of all im just hooked on qrack now so i cant be arsed to use anything else

anyway my point was that qrack is based on joequake, has more features and is better suited for multyplay.

[Canadian*Sniper]

I'm really not sure I understand the whole fullpitch thing you're mentioning. Perhaps you're increasing the contrast?

MENU > OPTIONS > GRAPHICS > SCENE BRIGHTNESS (3) is all you need to increase to see normally. You don't need to touch gamma and contrast (or brightness).

ok here it is:
i have -refreshrate 85 in commandline, monitor is running 85HZ (vertical) 53 HZ (horizontal)*, i got an nvidia GF5600FX 256 MB, i have vid_vsync 1, vid_refreshrate 85, cl_maxfps 999

the result is: 60 FPS weather i have vsync on application controlled or just [ON] in nvidia driver.. makes no difference.. both cases i get 60 FPS

using qrack 1.7

*i checked the OSD of monitor in quake and it is running those numbers



What exactly are u referring to?

OK, are you using a flatpanel monitor or CRT???

crt 19" iiyama
