Cvar


(SittingDuck) #1

Anyone know what this cvar does?

cg_reticletype

I’m a little confused by it…seems like it’s changing your reticle that you aim with to…something…but I don’t know what

:huh:

In RtCW, it changes the way the binocular reticle is drawn. Unfortunately, it’s a bit broken, so any value other than 1 will remove the reticle entirely (as well as the surrounding black border around the screen.) It may be forced to 1 via PB on some servers.

AFAIK, this cvar isn’t present in ET.

Thanks Rain,

This one has been bugging me cause TWL is saying it’s a mandatory cvar that needs to be applied. However, the default for anyone who has been on the server has caused them to be kicked…

I appreciate the insight :smiley:

Sitting duck, Im an admin for TWL ET. Be assured, that cvar is not required. The confusion comes from the ‘match.etpro.cfg’ that is available in TWL downloads and is listed for reference only. To be honest, I’m not sure why that cfg is listed in there as it IS NOT required. The only cfg requirements for TWL ET is use of ETPro 2.05 and execing the proper settings like twl or twl-sw. The beauty of ETPro is that Bani and Rain included all the cfgs required by TWL, CAL and STA within the mod. Once you exec them using ref or vote options, you are all set other than your std server cfg.
