Reaction Quake 3 - For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

3.0.0 - Getting Started

3.1.0 - Former/Current AQ2 Players

Action Quake 2 players tend to be an impatient lot, so this section will give a quick rundown of how to get up and running with RQ3. New players should read the next section. AQ2 players should also read the next section but they probably won't. ;)

Most of the old commands will work. The biggest difference between AQ2 and RQ3 is that Q3 likes to have "/" in front of all commands and cvars when typing them in-game. "bandage" then becomes "/bandage" if you type it manually. The radio binds are the same. The say substitutions like %W have been changed, they are now using $ instead of % so the proper command for "weapon" would be $W.

Check out section 6.0.0 for the details on what your old AQ2/Q2 binds and cvars are and what they are now in RQ3/Q3. There's also a sample config file you can refer to.

3.2.0 - General Walkthrough for Everyone

Oh come on, the menus are easy enough to figure out, aren't they? Play against some bots locally until you get the hang of things then go and play against people online.

(ok, so this section isn't done yet!)
