Hi, I'm obviously new here... so forgive me if I sound ignorant of something.

I seem to have noticed that there might be a few cvars missing from the latest build (joequake v0.15 build 1146). I'm not sure how many as I haven't checked them. The one cvar that seems to missing (the one I was checking for as I was trying to change it) is the scr_printstats cvar.

I typed up cvarlist I didn't see it in the latest build. I even installed & fired up another build that I still had on my pc (joequake v0.14 build 839) to see if it was just an error on my part. It had the cvar listed & it did work.

Can anyone confirm if this cvar or others are indeed missing or not from the latest build?

How about this:
Earlier it was scr_printstats with the same description.

Trinca,
grab 1.532 of Qrack, I added -refreshrate on the commandline parser
this should allow you to set what ever refresh you like, in conjunction with vid_vsync 0 -or- 1. On my system it seems to work fine with vid_vsync 1 but setting to 0 its takes off to > -refreshrate value. Just curious if you could test it out on your system, if its close to what you are looking for then i can pass that code to Joe.

thx

what is the JoeQuake cvar to turn autoswitch weapons off?

nobody has an answer for my stupid question?

there is no such cvar in JoeQuake, at least not any one of which I know about...

Aqua, the weapon switching is in quakeC, meaning it depends on the mod you play. Though a cl_smartweapon could be added to the engine.

Normally in mods when u pick up a weapon, if the new weapon is better than the one in hand it will 'autoswitch', which is fine for newbs who just hold the +attack button down alot while running around. But for others, this can cause a problem esspecially underwater when you back into the lg on dm3 and accidentaly discharge!

Exactly what did you want the autoweapon command to do, if you wanted to see it controlled on the client side?

Port b_switch and w_switch from Fuhquake.

Those are only variables that are passed to the mod. They dont point to any actual function within the engine itself.

Won't w_switch override any weapon switching on any mod or default quake single player? Set this to 1 or 2 for no higher weapon switching.

hmm not sure i looked in the fuh source and it had the variables but nothing specific codewise to perform for weapons. :/

New version 1.54 released 12/25/05

at least implement a priority like:

bind mouse1 "impulse 7 8 6 5 3 4 2 1;+attack"

it's annoying to switch back everytime you pick up that useless nailgun

Try

bind mouse1 "bestweapon 7 8 6 5 3 4 2 1; +attack"

and you shall be surprised, apparently!

in qrack impulse x x x x x x behaves the same as bestweapon x x x x x


its the same thing...

but that still doesnt override weapon switching after pickup


I WILL LOOK FOR A FIX FOR THIS,
I for one do NOT like weapons to switch on pickups! So i'm in your clan
