Console codes and Cheats for Quake II
These cheats may also help you out in multiplayer. But those kind are
not cheats, they just help with the way Quake II runs so you can play it
more comfortably. As for the cheats such as "god" "give
all" etc. they don't work in Multiplayer, so don't even try.
Console Commands List (use ~ key to open console)
Needed Cheats:
God - God mode
give all - Gives you EVERYTHING
give (ammo - type in the name of ammo, grenades, shells, slugs, etc.)
99999 - By using five 9's will give you infinite ammo - almost.
------Codes below are useful for multiplayer------
cl_maxfps - this is to help either with lag or reduce lag.
Better to set it at cl_maxfps 90 which is the default.
rate - This is like cl_maxfps, but it deals with how many packets
are sent. Best to use a rate of 8000 or 10000.
cl_blend 0 - This is only useful for those who use software mode.
This will make it easy to see through water and reduces lag.
gl_modulate 3.0 - This is only useful for those who have open GL,
brightens up the other players to make it easier to see.

- Type: Toggle
- Default:
1
- Description: Toggle the rounding of texture
sizes.
- Note: If this toggle is enabled textures which

0
- Description: Toggle the saturation of all
lights.
-

resolution that they are set as.

- Description: Displays the previous frame for
the current weapon model and reports the frame number. The first frame
0 is the default frame where the
gun animation takes place. If the frame number is increased to
