Github

Alternatively, there are other distributions:

Ok, downloaded! Now what?

Launch q2pro and browse the servers or the address book, or ask in the Discord chat if there's anyone playing and to join them.


How to I change my key bindings and controls?

Go to the main menu (Escape key) and go to Settings -> General Bindings, and Settings -> Weapon Bindings, set them in there. If you'd prefer to edit a config file with a text editor, go to action/q2config.cfg and edit the file by hand.


No one's playing! What do?

You can also play against bots! 1. Bring down the console with your tilde key (~) 2. Start a map with `gamemap <mapname>` (like urbanjungle) 3. Once it loads, you should have bots ready to go and blast away! (note: I'm working on a q2menu that will do this rather than via console commands, once finalized I'll amend this FAQ)
