Quake Live uses configuration files, aka configs, to store all of the client's settings. Configs can drastically change how your game looks, feels, and plays. Linked are a collection of simple configs that will improve the games visuals and reduce visual clutter. Config files are stored in the following directory: \Steam\SteamApps\common\Quake Live\\baseq3 In order to use the config, enter the following command in console (Open console with the ~ key) exec configname To save a config, enter the following: writeconfig configname Note: writing a config will override any files with the same name. Be careful! If you have a file named autoexec.cfg in your baseq3 directory, QL will launch with the settings contained in that file. Otherwise, the game will launch with the settings used when the game was last closed. Before doing exec configname in console, delete your qzconfig.cfg & repconfig.cfg in \Steam\SteamApps\common\Quake Live\\baseq3 while having the game closed That way you can secure that it will work every single time you try to execute a config WHAT TO DO IF YOUR CONFIG IS NOT WORKING?
