ProQuake Status Bar toggle?

[ultrahighgain]

On my old windows system when I played the original Quake I liked to toggle the status bar on for a second during game play and then hide it for a better screen view. I am now running ProQuake on a mac since my original CD wouldn't install. The "+" and "-" buttons now control sound volume. How can I switch back to the plus and minus buttons controlling the status bar?

make a autoexec.cfg and put those 2 lines in it :

bind "some key" "sizeup"
bind "some key" "sizedown"

Put the autoexec.cfg file in to quake\id1 now everytime u start quake it will start autoexec.cfg

U can add whatever command u like to startup with quake in autoexec.cfg

If u don't know how to make a autoexec.cfg , just copy config.cfg in ur quake/id1 folder and rename it to autoexec.cfg .

Is there any way to make these settings permanent?

I figured out what the problem was...just me being a dumbass.

That's pretty close although the sizeup does not work. Also, how do I bind the volume controls to other keys so decreasing the screen size does not also affect volume?

Ah yes u want it in game..

Bring down console and typ these 2 lines :

bind "F1" "sizeup"
bind "F2" "sizedown"

Now u can adjust that with F1 and F2 , or if u want to use - + :

bind "+" "sizeup"
bind "-" "sizedown"

Cant u adjust that in the option menu ?
