on or off. |
/toggle cg_drawfps |
Either shows or hides your frame-per-second

Changes your field of view. Higher
values give you a "fishbowl" effect that some players like,
as it gives them better periferal vision. |
/toggle cg_drawtimer |
Shows the amount of time left on the
level. Not too useful, since there's a clock on the screen by default.
|
/toggle cg_gibs |
Toggles whether or not gibs are drawn
when someone is hit particularly hard. |
/toggle cg_drawteamoverlay |
Draws or hides the team overlay information
that shows health and location of all your teammates. |

Tries to reconnect to the last server
you were connected to. |
/kill |

so you can respawn as a different class or with a different weapon.
|

/serverinfo |
Shows the current server's settings.
|
/toggle r_fullscreen |
Will toggle between windowed and full
screen mode. You must restart the game each time it's changed. NB Windows
utility Atl + Enter can do this function without the need to restart
the game. |
Voice Chat
Commands These commands affect the chat and voice commands. |
|
/toggle cg_novoicechats |
Setting this to 0 will make it so that
the quick chat messages (e.g., "Medic!" or "I need ammo")
will not make any audible sounds. They will, however, still show up
as text. |
/toggle cg_novoicetext |
Setting this to 0 will make it so the
quick chat messages do not show their text messages (but you will still
hear audio). |
/toggle cg_teamchatsonly
|
Setting this to 0 will make it so that
you only see chat messages from your team. |
/bind X "vsay Y" or /bind
X "vsay_team Y" |
X is a keyboard key and Y is a term
from the list below. This allows you to bind specific voice commands/comments
to one key instead of using the menu to navigate to the one you want.
Use one of the commands below to get the desired effect: |
/bind X "vsay GoodGame" /bind X "vsay Hi" /bind X "vsay Cheer" /bind X "vsay Bye" /bind X "vsay Thanks" /bind X "vsay GreatShot" /bind X "vsay Oops" /bind X "vsay_team FireInTheHole" /bind X "vsay_team HoldYourFire" /bind X "vsay_team TakingFire" /bind X "vsay_team AllClear" /bind X "vsay_team DynamitePlanted" /bind X "vsay_team DisarmDynamite" /bind X "vsay_team DynamiteDefused" /bind X "vsay_team EnemyWeak" /bind X "vsay_team Incoming" /bind X "vsay_team DefendObjective" /bind X "vsay_team ClearPath" /bind X "vsay_team PathCleared" /bind X "vsay_team LetsGo" /bind X "vsay_team Medic" /bind X "vsay_team NeedAmmo" /bind X "vsay_team NeedEngineer" /bind X "vsay_team OnDefense" /bind X "vsay_team OnOffense" /bind X "vsay_team NeedBackup" /bind X "vsay_team FollowMe" /bind X "vsay_team Sorry" /bind X "vsay_team Welcome" /bind X "vsay_team Affirmative" /bind X "vsay_team Negative" /bind X "vsay_team IamEngineer" /bind X "vsay_team IamMedic" /bind X "vsay_team IamLieutenant" /bind X "vsay_team IamSoldier" |
