Frag Tracker
The tracker allows you to view brief info about 'hot' fragging action going on in game, for example Foobar is on killing spree, 10 frags in a row!
You can also move frag messages out of usual notification area (and console) and view them in a more friendly readable way in a different place.
To enable it you have to have fragfile.dat
in your ezquake/
or qw/
directory and have following variables set (type them into the console or into your qw config):
/cl_parsefrags 1
/cl_loadfragfiles 1
/r_tracker_frags 2
The text resolution setting, /con_width
must be set to at least 512.
/r_tracker_frags
values.
- 0 (off) - Disable both streaks and custom frag messages
- 1 (default) - Enable brief frag info (who is on killing spree).
- 2 (custom frags) - Enable both brief frag info and custom frag messages.
You can turn off standard frag messages in console with:
/con_fragmessages 0
- Only display frag messages in the tracker, remove from console/nofify/con_fragmessages 1
- Display frag messages in the tracker and also in console/notify/con_fragmessages 2
- Display frag messages in the tracker and console, but remove from notify area
Other customization can be done with these variables.
