q3 settings, etc

Well as some of you know I re-downloaded quake yesterday.
What are the preferred settings?
(i.e. cg_fov, cl_maxpackets and all of that.)

Please reply, thanks :p

Hey, lookie here.....


we have a section just for that....

lol tad.

Yeah, excuse me for these lol:p
I still need to get used to everything you guys have on the forums.
Next time I'll look around more before I post (:

fov depends on your monitor size... so what works for someone might not work for u, the settings for 90% of q3a players are

/rate 25000

/snaps 40

/cl_maxpackets 40

/com_maxfps 125 ( if u have a decent pc that is, otherwise leave it default 85)

/cg_chatsound 0 ( disables the annoying BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP, everytime someone writes something on the server... VERY useful when playing on a public server...)

u can bind that to a couple keys to toggle it if u like it for scrims...

/bind LEFTARROW cg_chatsound 0

/bind RIGHTARROW ch_chatsound 1


simple right..

thanks :p

np, i dont mind helping people, its when they ask questions that a simple forum or google search can find for them the same way i can... is when it starts to get a bit annoying.. lol

are you referring to yesterday, when I asked for a q3 download link? XD

nah its hard to find one of those, thats not infected with either a virus or a cheat... i rather people ask a well known person for a link rather then grab one from some piss ant site and drop ...

personally i prefer chat sound to be on period...just cuz i chat a lot

screw the chat sounds.

it doesn't bug me that much...

thats you. not me :p

go to Quake Live.

ive never played QL.
