Urgh’s Quake 2 config file!

Hey all – thought I’d just post my urgh.cfg file, for those who are Quake 2 geeks like me. I play under the name uuuurgh, though I can’t remember how I came up with the name.

Sometimes people are looking to learn about these things. If you have a custom config like me, you have to go into the console when you first run Q2 (by hitting the tilde: ~ ) and then type “exec urgh.cfg” or whatever you choose to call it. Put it in the baseq2 folder before you play.

This is a config for a 3-button scroll-wheel mouse. Down-wheel is Rocket Launcher, Up-wheel is Chaingun, middle-click is Railgun. Right-click is sniper zoom, and I have some number-pad buttons for quick weapon switches as well.

I can turn the sky to a blank orange thing to save horsepower – i sometimes run into problems with lag, caused by my old graphics card I think. Each time a map loads, or if you apply a change in the video menu, you hit “z” and the sky becomes the boring blob that saves go-juice.

I can also turn off particles with “a” – the sparkly bits in the rocket trail, blood spatters etc. these are really useful for info during fighitng, but they actually chew up a lot of CPU cycles. Turning them off can make the difference in seeing things before rather than after they kill you! I just added “s” to turn particles back on. Rockets look odd without particles, BTW. A surreal new way to play.

Enjoy and config. If you end up using this config, let me know. Post comments as well if you have better configs or advice.

I’m running q2 right now on a mac OSX.3.9 g4 500mhz with 768 megs of ram, through a linksys wireless router (though I’m wired into it) and shaw cable. I usually play on Redmond, Washington Free For All (RWFFA) run by pepp5 at www.pepp5.com with a ping around 85 (I get my butt kicked). There’s a bunch of cool servers in the address book of this config too.

SO here’s the config. I can’t attach files here so cut and paste the following into a plain-text editor, then save it as urgh.cfg or whatever.cfg
