Title: I just can't open the console...
Post by: Gurownia on January 09, 2008, 04:21:36 PM
I hit the button beneath ESC, but nothing happens. Please help me. I'm using Ubuntu.

You can either edit it manually in your q3config.cfg and change the 'toggleconsole' to something of your choice.
bind 0 "toggleconsole" would bind it to the 0-key, but beware that it might only bring the console down, and not up again.
A combination like 'alt + ^ + space' is the only thing that works for me under Kubuntu, regardless of default configs or not.
Some players have it bound on tilde (~) by default, so try any of the above and see if it helps.

So It's not a problem with my PC?

Thank you so much for the help!

Depends whether you talk of the console (~) or the main menu (ESC)
The main menu key is reluctant to be bound to something else than ESC.
