&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;Here is a good start to tweaking your config in game.&lt;br /&gt;
(This is written for people with a decent connection ie: cable/dsl) &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first thing to do is make a backup of you trep0config.cfg&lt;br /&gt;
/writeconfig backup --- this will make a backup of your config named backup.cfg&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you find that you don't like what you have changed you can change it back by:&lt;br /&gt;
/exec backup (you may need to do a /vid_restart for all the setting to take place)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*tip when in the console you can hit any letter then use the tab key and it will show you the available commands and you can also use it as a auto complete! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 **************************************************************&lt;br /&gt;
 Network tweaks &lt;br /&gt;
 /snaps 40 &lt;br /&gt;
 /rate 25000&lt;br /&gt;
 /cl_maxpackets 40-120&lt;br /&gt;
 /cl_packetdup 0 &lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_deferPlayers 1 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About cl_maxpackets I find that I do better with a high maxpackets when I using the machine gun and rocket launcher but it seems to throw off your rail gun, so if you are a rail gun user keep it towards the low end and play with this setting!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Frame Rate Tweaks ==&lt;br /&gt;
In the games menu under settings/game options &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-I turn on Simple Items (this makes the weapons, health and armor to be 2d instead of 3d)&lt;br /&gt;
-I turn off Marks on Walls &lt;br /&gt;
-I turn off Ejecting Brass &lt;br /&gt;
-I turn off Dynamic Lights&lt;br /&gt;
-I keep on Identify Target (you need to know who you are killing!)&lt;br /&gt;
-I keep Sync Every Frame (I seem to aim better with it on but it does cost FPS)&lt;br /&gt;
-I turn off Force Player Models (this makes everyone have the same model as you when it is on)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_drawfps 1&lt;br /&gt;
this displays your frames per second up in the right top corner 1 means on 0 means off&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_drawtimer 1&lt;br /&gt;
this displays the time that the match has been running and you can use this to time when the quad comes out&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /com_maxfps 120 &lt;br /&gt;
this will set your maximum frame rate and will really help your jumps and strafing &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_gibs 0 &lt;br /&gt;
this turns off the flying body parts when you kill someone which makes it hard to see and lowers your fps&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /com_blood 0 &lt;br /&gt;
turns off blood which again makes it hard to see when fighting and lowers fps&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_bobroll 0&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_bobpitch 0 &lt;br /&gt;
these will take some of the motion out of running and help &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_runroll 0 &lt;br /&gt;
your fps slightly and help your aim slightly &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /cg_runpitch 0 &lt;br /&gt;
 /r_fastsky 1&lt;br /&gt;
takes away the sky overhead&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /r_picmips&lt;br /&gt;
ok, this one can really help fps but also make the game ugly as hell, 0 is the best quality and 1 is the default setting this adjusts the texture quality, sometimes when there is alot of people on the server I will run it at 4 or 5. (you will need to do a \vid_resart to see the changes made) There is talk about making this command cheat protected on the open arena forums.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Brightness tweaks ==&lt;br /&gt;
(so you can see people standing in the corners trying to kill you!)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /r_ignorehwgamma 0 &lt;br /&gt;
this is to ignore hardware gamma &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /r_gamma 1.5 &lt;br /&gt;
this can saturate your screen try different values and see what you like and you can use settings like 1.5 &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
/seta r_mapOverbrightBits 5 &lt;br /&gt;
this really takes out the shadows and dark corners &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== General tweaks ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 /com_hunkmegs 256 &lt;br /&gt;
 /com_zonemegs 48&lt;br /&gt;
this sets aside a chunk of memory for the maps to load&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These are the tweaks that I feel are important and use, there are many guides out there to use, but this is a good start. I will be adding to this as I think of other things to add. If anyone has any comments or see something that I have missed please leave a comment and I will add it or discuss why I don't use it or use it. There is a ton more settings to adjust these are some of my favorites. &lt;br /&gt;
