sv_timestamps.
To configure how timestamps are formatted, use the sv_timefmt Cvar. It's a
formatted string, with the following special tokens (taken from the
strftime() manual page):
%a The abbreviated weekday name according to the cur
rent locale.
%A The full weekday name according to the current
locale.
%b The abbreviated month name according to the current
locale.
%B The full month name according to the current
locale.
%c The preferred date and time representation for the
current locale.
%C The century number (year/100) as a 2-digit integer.
(SU)
%C The century number (the year divided by 100 and
truncated to an integer).
%d The day of the month as a decimal number (range 01
to 31).
%D Equivalent to %m/%d/%y. (Yecch - for Americans
only. Americans should note that in other coun
tries %d/%m/%y is rather common. This means that in
international context this format is ambiguous and
should not be used.) (SU)
%e Like %d, the day of the month as a decimal number,
but a leading zero is replaced by a space. (SU)
%E Modifier: use alternative format, see below. (SU)
%G The ISO 8601 year with century as a decimal number.
The 4-digit year corresponding to the ISO week num
ber (see %V). This has the same format and value
as %y, except that if the ISO week number belongs
to the previous or next year, that year is used
instead. (TZ)
%g Like %G, but without century, i.e., with a 2-digit
year (00-99). (TZ)
%h Equivalent to %b. (SU)
%H The hour as a decimal number using a 24-hour clock
(range 00 to 23).
%I The hour as a decimal number using a 12-hour clock
(range 01 to 12).
%j The day of the year as a decimal number (range 001
to 366).
%k The hour (24-hour clock) as a decimal number (range
0 to 23); single digits are preceded by a blank.
(See also %H.) (TZ)
%l The hour (12-hour clock) as a decimal number (range
1 to 12); single digits are preceded by a blank.
(See also %I.) (TZ)
%m The month as a decimal number (range 01 to 12).
%M The minute as a decimal number (range 00 to 59).
%n A newline character. (SU)
%O Modifier: use alternative format, see below. (SU)
%p Either `AM' or `PM' according to the given time
value, or the corresponding strings for the current
locale. Noon is treated as `pm' and midnight as
`am'.
%P Like %p but in lowercase: `am' or `pm' or a corre
sponding string for the current locale. (GNU)
%r The time in a.m. or p.m. notation. In the POSIX
locale this is equivalent to `%I:%M:%S %p'. (SU)
%R The time in 24-hour notation (%H:%M). (SU) For a
version including the seconds, see %T below.
%s The number of seconds since the Epoch, i.e., since
1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. (TZ)
%S The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 61).
%t A tab character. (SU)
%T The time in 24-hour notation (%H:%M:%S). (SU)
%u The day of the week as a decimal, range 1 to 7,
Monday being 1. See also %w. (SU)
%U The week number of the current year as a decimal
number, range 00 to 53, starting with the first
Sunday as the first day of week 01. See also %V and
%W.
%V The ISO 8601:1988 week number of the current year
as a decimal number, range 01 to 53, where week 1
is the first week that has at least 4 days in the
current year, and with Monday as the first day of
the week. See also %U and %W. (SU)
%w The day of the week as a decimal, range 0 to 6,
Sunday being 0. See also %u.
%W The week number of the current year as a decimal
number, range 00 to 53, starting with the first
Monday as the first day of week 01.
%x The preferred date representation for the current
locale without the time.
%X The preferred time representation for the current
locale without the date.
%y The year as a decimal number without a century
(range 00 to 99).
%Y The year as a decimal number including the century.
%z The time-zone as hour offset from GMT. Required to
emit RFC822-conformant dates (using "%a, %d %b %Y
%H:%M:%S %z"). (GNU)
%Z The time zone or name or abbreviation.
%+ The date and time in date(1) format. (TZ)
%% A literal `%' character.
Some of these may not work on some systems.

1 Special Thanks
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The QuakeForge Project would like to thank Id Software, Inc. for writing
and releasing Quake under the GNU GPL. We'd like to thank John Carmack
and Dave Kirsch in particular for the support they have provided to us
and to the Free Software community as a whole.
We would also like to thank the following organizations for their
contributions to QuakeForge:
VA Linux Systems, Inc.
3Dfx Interactive, Inc.
And last but certainly not least, we would like to thank every single
person who has contributed even one line of code, documentation, or
other support to the QuakeForge project.
Without all of you, we would not be where we are right now.
Id Software, Inc. thanks MPath Interactive and Gandalf Technology for
their help and support.
If you'd like to contribute in any way to the QuakeForge project, please
contact our mailing list at quake-devel@lists.sourceforge.net.
2 System Requirements
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
* A Raster capable display. ;-)
* 16 megabytes of memory beyond operating system footprint.
* A Floating-point processor. While not strictly required, QuakeForge
uses a lot of floating-point math, so a FPU is highly recommended.
* 10MB of free hard disk space to build all targets. In addition to the
base system, you will require game data files. For the default game
("Quake"), you will need either the shareware or registered version of
Quake.
3 Compiling and Running QuakeForge
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please read the INSTALL file for more information on compiling.
Autoconf 2.13 or later and automake 1.3 or later are required to use
the bootstrap script, which creates the "configure" script.
After you have compiled successfully, you must download the shareware
version of Quake 1 to play. Insert the proper binaries in the same
directory as the unpacked shareware files, and run.
We are currently working on a free replacement for the Quake game data
files.
4 Platform-Specific Issues
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This section discusses issues that affect only certain operating
platforms.
4.1 DOS
If you experience page faults while running Quarterdeck's QDPMI DPMI
server, this is caused by a bug in QDPMI. Workarounds: Remove QDPMI
from CONFIG.SYS, issue the command QDPMI OFF before running QuakeForge,
or get the update patch for QDPMI from Quarterdeck. You may be running
QDPMI without knowing it if you have QEMM installed, because it can be
installed as part of the QEMM installation.
4.2 Linux
SVGALib-using targets (-svga and -3dfx) can't be started from within X.
We are aware of the problem, and if you can figure out the reason, we'd
appreciate a patch, PLEASE! As a workaround, you can use "open" to start
those targets from within X. (e.g. "open -s -- qw-client-svga")
Some 3Dfx Voodoo-based 3D accelerators may have issues with the way
QuakeForge uses the "3dfxgl" minidriver to interface to the Glide
library.
Video boards based on the Riva
128/128ZX/TNT/TNT2/TNT2 Ultra/Vanta/GeForce 256 chipsets from nVidia
Corp. using the latest (as of 13 Jan 2000) nVidia OpenGL drivers may
have problems with transparency. Under some conditions, these drivers
may lock the X Window System server, possibly rendering the system
unusable. The currently-recommended drivers for video cards with Riva
128/128ZX/TNT/TNT2/TNT2 Ultra chipsets are those from the Utah GLX
project, located at http://utah-glx.sourceforge.net/ -- for the Vanta
and GeForce 256 chipsets, there is no suggested hardware-accelerated
OpenGL alternative at this time. We believe the bug to be in nVidia's
drivers, because our code seems to work under other OpenGL
implementations.
4.4 Windows 95/98/Millennium
Currently, we are unable to determine the status of the Windows-based
targets of QuakeForge. Because of our move to GNU Autoconf and the
dearth of "proper" GNU tools available on the Windows platform, our
build system may not work properly on Windows. We are working on
solutions for this problem.
4.5 Windows NT/2000
For the most part, issues for Windows 9x-based operating environments
will be similar. However, because of numerous differences in the way
Windows NT and Windows 9x operate, these systems may have specific
issues.
5 Errata and Known Bugs
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Problem: After running the X11 target my keyboard repeat turns off! How
do I turn it back on?
Solution: xset r on
Problem: The screen flickers once about every other frame when using GL
Solution: Not all GL implementations support a performance hack which is
used by the GL renderer allowing it to avoid clearing the
Z-buffer. The console command "gl_ztrick 0" fixes this
problem.
Problem: Zombies can sometimes get "stuck" in the ground. They can be
heard but not killed making it impossible to get 100% on the
current level.
Solution: None found yet.
Problem: It is possible for players to sometimes get stuck in a room or
wall, much like the zombies mentioned above.
Solution: The "kill" console command will un-stick you, but it has the
unfortunate side effect of killing you in the process (hence
the command's name.) It is a good idea to save your games
often.
Problem: Sometimes during a game the player's view will not center
properly. The end result is that the player view is looking
up toward the ceiling while walking.
Solution: Use of freelook (mouse or keyboard) may solve this problem, as
will exiting the level or the "kill" console command.
6 Troubleshooting
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If QuakeForge fails to start up, or has problems not addressed elsewhere
in the documentation, try the -safe command line switch, which disables
a number of parts of QuakeForge that can be problems if there are
hardware or configuration problems. The -safe command line switch is
equivalent to -stdvid, -nosound, -nonet, and -nocdaudio together. Those
four switches do the following:
-stdvid disables VESA video modes
-nosound disables sound card support
-nonet disables network card support
-nocdaudio disables CD audio support
If -safe makes the problem go away, try using each of the switches
individually to isolate the area in which you're experiencing the
problem, then either correct the configuration or hardware problem or
play QuakeForge with that functionality disabled.
7 Technical Support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Please do not contact Id Software, Inc. regarding technical support
issues related to QuakeForge. QuakeForge is heavily modified from the
original Quake source release and Id Software does not support these
modifications.
Visit the QuakeForge project's webpage for more information on technical
support, bugs reports, and help at: http://www.quakeforge.net/
Thank you.
8 Joystick notes
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Your joystick must be plugged in when QuakeForge is launched.
If you have a joystick plugged in, but do not wish QuakeForge to try to
use it, just add the -nojoy option to the QuakeForge command line.
You may disable joystick reads from the QuakeForge console with the
"joystick 0" command.
There are default configuration bindings for joystick buttons.
If your joystick or interface card reports three or four buttons and you
only have two, use the QuakeForge console command "joybuttons 2".
The "mlook" and "sidestep" commands work with a joystick exactly as they
do for a mouse, as does the "invert mouse up/down" menu option.
