Quake 4 complete list of console variables
How to use the console
[Ctrl] + [Alt] + [~] Opens the console
Once the console is open, type in a command. Some only work within an active game. If you press tab the console
will attempt to complete the command you have started to write, if more
than one command can match, they will be listed instead.
To avoid having to press [Ctrl] + [Alt] + [~] you can add a command line shortcut to Quake 4 like this:
Example: "C:\my games\Quake4\quake4.exe" +set com_allowConsole 1
You can also add the line "set com_allowConsole 1" to your autoexec.cfg file.
.config files
To run a list of commands automatically when Quake 4 boots up, you can create a config file, read in our FAQ: What is a config file?
A list of useful console commands

framerate counter show up.
