There are different current and defaults for the commands depending on your particular system hardware configuration, that's why I don't provide the defaults here. More importantly, you will also see the default value. For example, type r_displayrefresh and you will see the current value for this variable on your system. So don't use Seta unless you want a value to 'stick', as it will remain there until you either manually change its value again.Ĭurrent and Default Values: If at any time you want to see the current value for a cvar, open the console and type the name of the variable without a value. Seta is more useful in that it tells the game engine to set the cvar value, and then archive it (store it) so it becomes permanent. The Set command is used to tell the game engine to set a cvar to a particular value. You can also insert these in front of your commands in the console or config file or in the command line, however they aren't absolutely necessary for a command to work. Seta: You will see in certain places, like the etqwconfig.cfg file, that a command is prefaced with the words Set or Seta. You don't have to use '' (quotes) around the value, nor do you have to use the Set or Seta command in front of them. To get a saved list of the cvars with descriptions, type htmlcvars and a copy will be saved as cvars.html under the directory which holds your etqwconfig.cfg and etqwbinds.cfg files (See previous page).Ĭonfig and Console Usage: In the ET:QW engine, when you want to use a command - whether in a config file or in the console - you can simply type the name of the command, and then any values or parameters if required, however you must place exactly one space after the command and any following value or parameter. To see a full list of the ETQW commands for yourself, type listcvars and listcmds in the in-game console.

The list is by no means exhaustive since there are literally almost 1,800 different commands and variables for ET:QW I've only tried to cover the most useful working commands. This section lists all the major Enemy Territory: Quake Wars commands and command variables (cvars) by general function, and provides descriptions and recommendations for the important ones.
