Wireframe mode....

Firefox · Post by **Firefox** » Fri Sep 01, 2006 7:32 pm

Hey guys,
I was just wondering hhow to do that wireframe mode. I think it is r_showtris
But, when I do it (and im getting angry bout it) it just says
r_showtris "0" Default "0"
so I go hey lets put a one next to it
r_showtris 1

So I type in r_showtris and it says
r_showtris "1" Default "0"

AND NOTHING ELSE HAPPENS.... So any help would be great cuz im frustrated....

Thanks

i'm curious on this one too, I think you have to be in Dev mode. MJ?

Yes, you need to be in Developer Mode and you must have cheats enabled. Cheats don't work in Multiplayer, so you must run a version of your map in the Singleplayer game.

The way I do it is to call the "leveldesign menu" in the game and click on the "Tris 2" button.

bind F8 "togglemenu leveldesign"

any cvar needs to have a variable afterwords to tell it to change. anything with r_ cg_ g_ cl_ or ui_ (I.E. ui_mimicon or cg_lagometer) need have have something afterwards.

in r_showtris' case, 1 shows basic wires and 2 shows all wires.

You can enable cheats in MP.

I always use this:

Code: Select all

cheats 1;devmap mapname;cheats 1

The double "cheats 1" may seem redundant, but somehow if any of them is missing, cheats won't work.
