... "line of code" ...
don't scare noobs with words like that snipes
its nothing but a bunch of quake commands that u could type into the quake console anyways..

[Canadian*Sniper]

../id1/autoexec.cfg

if it's not there, make one and just add those lines of code in. After that, make sure you put this line of code in:

bind SPACE "+myjump";

[LordHavoc]

Im sorry Im such a noob, where do i put this? :d

Such things usually go in id1/autoexec.cfg (create it if it doesn't exist, you may have to create a txt file with notepad and then rename it to .cfg).

alias +myjump "+jump;+moveup"
alias -myjump "-moveup;-jump"

Im sorry Im such a noob, where do i put this? :d

yeah i use that in CAx so ur not such an easy target in the water..

I know LordHavoc thinks pq_moveup is sort of unclean because it isn't compatible with some mods or alters the intended operation of the jump key in some mods, but I think DarkPlaces would be better off supporting some form of pq_moveup as an option.

I mean, if the alternative is for players to bind "+moveup; +jump" to a key, that isn't compatible/intended with those mods either :d :d :d

i've tried something like that in the past, but it hasn't worked for me. And this one you showed me doesn't work exactly correct either. Here's what worked perfectly for me after some tweaking:

alias +myjump "+jump;+moveup"
alias -myjump "-moveup;-jump"

the problem i have had in the past was i had -moveup and -jump reversed, and it wouldn't work. The +-movedown commands aren't necessary, and the +movedown command made me sink like a rock everytime i hopped in the water.

[=peg=]

alias +myjump "-movedown;+jump;+moveup"
alias -myjump "-moveup;-jump;+movedown"

nothing new offcourse..

[PapaSmurf]

Oh, and is there a variable like pq_moveup, that allows you to map +jump and +moveup to the same key.

Type in vid_conwidth and vid_conheight. Set them to what you want. I use 1400x1050 and 800x600 console. Check out the latest jun16 beta. It has a cool frag counter and timer, along with showing the names of players in the status bar.
I don't recall DP having console adjustment in the menu. I never really had to adjust the console until I got the latest version (the names of players were cut off a little).

[PapaSmurf]

No, I don't mean screen resolution, I mean the resolution of the menu/console.

[Canadian*Sniper]

Resolution can still be found under Video Options but I don't know the commands for transparent HUD :'(

[PapaSmurf]

I saw in an earlier version of darkplaces you had menu options for changing the menu resolution size (width and height). Tehre was also a slider to adjust the sbar transparency level. Where did these menu optioons go? And what are the console commands for these?
