Don’t worry these conventions are very similar to other conventions used in technical documents, so if you ever read a technical document before you will feel right at home. It is very important to understand exactly what these conventions. Right now I would like to touch-up on a couple of conventions that I use though this document. I hope you enjoy this tutorial and that it increases your knowledge of Quake 2 in some way.
With this tutorial and that document you will be making aliases and scripts in no time. All of the console commands and console variables are described in that document.
That document will become an invaluable tool for you in the understanding of the console. I would like to recommend that while reading this document you take a look at the Quake 2 Console Commands document which is available at this site. By the way, the Quake console is almost identical to the Quake 2 console, so even though this is a Quake 2 tutorial and I’m using Quake 2 specific commands all of the same ideas can be applied to Quake. That tutorial was like a beta version of this tutorial to tell you the truth. That tutorial did explain a lot of things about the console but it did not go into such detail as this tutorial does. I have written one before this for the Quake console. This is actually my second console tutorial. After reading and understanding this document the console will lose its mystic value and will become just another part of Quake 2. Now all of those Quake 2 players who have wondered about aliases and bindings will have a clear picture of what everything means.
The console is very easy to use and very easy to understand. I have decided to write this document to better educate the Quake 2 players about the console and its powerful use. There is a great amount of information contained in this tutorial which should help anybody who is willing to read it and learn from it. It describes all aspects of the console such as the syntax, the usage of commands and variables, the creation of aliases and bindings, and script. This document is a tutorial for the Quake 2 console.
