all times.

g_allowVote

Default: "1"

Description: (0, 1) Allow player voting.

cg_autoswitch

Description:
Displays all of the available commands.

r_colorbits
"x".
Use this to set the colour depth. Leave it at 16 unless you have

"x".
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,

that join games until you get killed. Then the new player model will be
loaded. Dont set this to 0 unless you want to lag a little when
new players join & their model gets loaded.

r_depthbits
"x".
This is similar to the setting above. 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

Use x 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 shouldnt set it any higher
than the highest refresh rate your monitor can sustain at a given resolution.

dmflags.
not sure

s_doppler
"x".
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.

g_dowarmup

Default: "0"

Description: (0, 1) Do warmups before a Tourney match.

cg_draw2D
"x".
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 "0"

Toggles the drawing of the 3D ammo, skin and armor icons.
Set it to 0 and gain fps

cg_drawAmmoWarning
"1".
A value of 1 enables the low-ammo warning display. 0disables
it.

cg_drawCrosshair

A value of 0 for x
will remove the crosshair, which will make aiming making more difficult.
1enables
the crosshair. Leave this setting alone.

cg_drawCrosshairNames
"x".
Set this to 1 to allow the name of the targeted person or item to
appear. 0 will disable this. Its probably best to set this
to 1, particularly in multiplayer games.

r_drawentities
x. Will not draw entities. Used to debug maps. Use
the devmap command to load the map first.

cg_drawFPS
x.
A value of 1 for x 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_drawGun
"x".
Set x 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 youll want to know what weapon you
have. Id recommend leaving this set to 1.

cg_drawRewards "0"

Set it to 0. You really don't need to be told how good
you are right?

cg_drawStatus "1"

Draws your health status. One that will increase your
fps (not noticeably) if turned off - 0. I personally like to anticipate
death.

r_drawSun
"x".
A setting of 1 enables the sun to be drawn. It wont 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).

cg_drawTimer "1"

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.

dumpuser

Usage: dumpuser <user>

Description:
Displays information about the specified user.

r_dynamiclight
"x".
A setting of 1 will enable the dynamic lighting of maps,
e.g. the light surrounding an explosion. Improve performance by setting

A setting of 1 will remove the sky texture & portals wont be
seen through. Id recommend leaving this set to 0 unless youre
on a really slow system. Also for debugging maps. Use
the devmap command to load the map first.

r_finish
x.
Setting x 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.

m_filter
x.
Set x to 1 to enable mouse filtering. This will average
out mouse movements resulting in much smoother scrolling. A setting of
0disables
the filter. Id high recommend enabling this.

com_FirstTime
"x".
A value of 1 means that the intro was already played, so it isnt
played again. Give it a value of 0 to enable it being played
each time you load the game.

sv_fps

Description: Server frames per second to the client.

sv_floodprotect

Default: "1"

Description: (0, 1) Protect players from flooding the server.

fraglimit x.

Description: Set the frag limit in a game

g_friendlyFire

Default: "0"

Description: (0, 1) Friendly fire causes injury.

cg_forceModel
"x".
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 therell be no way to distinguish
between players. Id recommend leaving this at 0 unless you are
using a graphics card with a low amount of video memory.

g_forcerespawn

Default: "0"

Description: Force player to respawn after death in milliseconds.

cg_fov "100"

The field of vision value is in degrees (default 90,

3 = 1 vs. 1

2 = team holo TM

1 = free for all dm death match

r_gamma
"x".
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.

s_geom_reverb
"x".
A value of 1 enables geometric reverb, 0 disables
it. Performance will be improved when set to 0.

s_geometry
"x".A
value of 1 for x enables A3D geometry processing,

sv_hostname

Default: "noname"

Description: The friendly name of the server.

com_hunkMegs
"x".
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.

Iback
to index

r_ignorehwgamma
"x".
Set x 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.

g_inactivity

Default: "0"

Description: Time in seconds of inactivity before a player is kicked.

s_initsound
"x".
When x is 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.

Jback

in_joystick
"x".
You wont be using a joystick to play Elite Force so set x to 0.
If you are, set it to 1. Mouse & keyboard is by far the better
way to play though.

cg_lagometer
"x".
Give x 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.
Ill 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.

s_loadas8bit
x.
Set this to 0 to improve audio quality. A setting of 1 may
improve performance a little but reduce audio quality.
r_lodbias
"x".
This 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. Id recommend
leaving it at the default of 1. 2 is the least detailed but
also the fastest. Elite Force models are skeletal so theres no memory
savings by using a less detailed setting (higher), just a frame rate improvement.

g_log

Default: "games.log"

Description: The sub-directory and filename of the log file.

logfile

Default: "0"

Description: Console logging 0=no,1=buffered,2=continuous,3=append.

com_maxfps
"x".
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. Id 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.

g_maxgameclients.
Not sure, may be same as maxclients but set in game.

cl_maxpackets
"x". 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.

sv_maxPing

Default: "0"

Description: The max ping value to join the game.

sv_maxrate: not sure

with some soundcards. I'd recommend setting it to 0.2
unless you encounter problems, lower it if you do.

in_mouse
"1".
Set x to 1 to enable mouse support. If for some reason
you arent using a mouse then set this to 0.

r_ext_multitexture

0
will disable it.
Also Used to debug maps. Use
the devmap command to load the map first.

of course improve performance & Id highly recommend doing that. Especially
when youre going to play online.

s_volumeVoice
"x".
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.

You may notice visual faults in maps though as a result. Id recommend
setting it to 0.
Used to debug
maps. Use
the devmap command to load the map first.

cl_nodelta x.
A setting of 1 for x will disable Delta compression.
Dont do this for any reason.

net_noipx "x".
Set this to 0 to enable the use of the IPX/SPX protocol.
You must have IPX/SPX installed to use this so set it to 1 if you
dont. Most Internet servers use UDP (part of the TCP/IP protocol). Id
recommend setting it to 1.

notarget .
Toggle; Makes you invisible (cheat codes must be enabled)

net_noudp "x".
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 dont. Most Internet servers use UDP. Id recommend
setting it to 0. This is only really useful if you play the game
solely on an IPX/SPX network/server.

r_norefresh
"x".
Not a tweak as such although setting x 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.

s_numpolys
"x".x
sets the maximum polygons to be rendered in A3D. Setting this to 0
is equivalent to s_geometry

audio quality (more realistic), although performance will be lower. 0disables
occlusions & performance will be improved.

r_overBrightBits
"x".
Default is 1. 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 isnt affected either way. If you change
this to 0, you should also change r_mapoverbrightbits to
0
as well.

Pback

cg_predictItems
"x". Set x to 0. This controls whether the Client or
Server decides if an item has been collected. When set to 1 you

rate
x.
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.

rconpassword

Usage: /rconpassword mypassword

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.

r_showtris
x: Shows all the triangles drawn from the compile process. Use the devmap
command to load your map fromt he console for debugging

cg_simpleItems
"x".
A value of 1 will disable the display of 3d models for items,

older videocards. 0enables the display of 3d models for items,
which will make image quality a little better.

r_smp
x.
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.

snaps
x.
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
youll want to change this according to the how your lagometer is displaying.

r_stencilbits
"x".
If you enabled Volumetric shadows above then youll 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.

r_subdivisions
"x".
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.

g_subtitles
"0".
Setting x to 1 will enable subtitles in the game,
0disables
them. A setting of 2 enables the display of subtitles during
cinematic scenes.

r_swapInterval
"x".
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_ext_texture_filter_anisotropic
"x".
When x
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 doesnt support it. If not supported it will automatically
be disabled.

r_texturebits
"x".
Sets the bits per texture. A value of 16 for 16-bit colour &
32
for 32bit colour. 32 will give best texture quality.

r_textureMode
"x".
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.

cg_thirdperson
x. 1=enabled. Switches to the third person view.

timelimit

Default: "0"

Description: Time before a game ends
cl_timenudge
x. Similar to push latency in Half-life, you can use this
to set fake lag when playing in single player, & more importantly
in online games you can give this a negative value. A general rule of thumb
would be to set this to half your average ping (negative value of course,
or else youd 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.

sv_timeout

Default: "120"

Description: Time before a client is considered disconnected.

Set this to 0 if youve enabled Lightmap lighting. Setting
it to 1 will enable Vertex lighting, which is faster but
uglier.

vminfo

Usage: vminfo

Description: Displays information about the server's virtual machine.

s_2dvolume
"x".
x
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. Id recommend leaving this at the default value, 0.7.

s_volume
"x".
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.

doesnt support this effect.
