Miscellaneous Debug Features#

This game has a few debugging console arguments leftover:

Argument

Result

-buildai

Spits out a blank AI file, presumably for the devs to create new AI's.

-testmodels

Quickly cycles through all available models, presumably making sure they display properly.

-logfiles

Logs what files are being loaded.

-shaderdup

Spits out some XMLs and HTMLs and stuff, plus seems to print more info about the scripts the game is loading. Game refuses to boot. Seems to possibly check for duplicate shader files.

-join

-dedicated

Prints a few more strings into the console, and prints out a few Debug Strings. Also slows down the game a LOT.

-batchmode %s

Loads into the game, and quickly cycles through different modes. There are arguments for this command (once, prf, nomenu, texdump, memdump, quit), however they are not documented.

-spmap %s

Loads the game directly into the level specified.

-map %s

-cheats

-developper

-nointro

Skips game intros on boot.

-console

Opens the game console.

-console98

Opens the game console also, not completely sure what it is different.

-debug

-res

Rebuilds the .res files in the INTERFACE folder.

-exp

Rebuilds the SCRIPTER.EXP file in the SCRIPTS folder.
