unezQuake — Modernizing QuakeWorld Standards For Interested Parties

unezQuake is a fork of the ezQuake client that aims to bring more permissive standards and fun features to Quakeworld to help the game evolve in a positive way.

Features

unezQuake has all of the latest ezQake features, plus:

• cl_predict_* - cvars for antilag
  • cl_predict_buffer - how many frames are buffered before prediction is used. "0" is the fastest but will result in more errors like phantom rockets
  • cl_predict_jump - controls if your jump sound is predicted
  • cl_predict_projectiles - controls if projectiles are predicted
  • cl_predict_smoothview - values between 0.1 and 2 will attempt to smooth fast position changes from packet loss or knockback
  • cl_predict_weaponsound - controls prediction of weapon sounds
• scr_autoid_ingame - see autoID for teammates while playing
  • scr_autoid_ingame_namelength
  • scr_autoid_ingame_weapon
  • scr_autoid_ingame_armor_health
• scr_scoreboard_showtracking - see who spectators are following in the scoreboard (experimental)
  • scr_scoreboard_showtracking_format
  • scr_scoreboard_showtracking_namewidth
  • scr_scoreboard_showtracking_scale
  • scr_scoreboard_showtracking_x
  • scr_scoreboard_showtracking_y
• scr_scoreboard_scale - size the scoreboard. Convenient when using high console resolutions.
• cl_autohop - queue jumps automatically when holding +jump
• scr_teaminlay - KTX independent teamoverlay with experimental MM2 enhancements
• cl_easyaircontrol - experimental input handling for controller/joystick (only works in prewar)
• cl_autoshownick - triggers shownick automatically when looking towards a teammate
• cl_smartspawn - uses jump to spawn even when pressing +attack
• cl_safeswitch - switches to a non-LG weapon when entering water (does not prevent discharge)
  • cl_safeswitch_order "7 5 2 1" - set a custom weapon order (default is "")
• hud_[element]_border x - sets a border of "x" thickness around any hud element
  • hud_[element]_border_color "R G B A" - set color of border
