Config Variables
Config variables, short for Configuration Variables, are all settings that OpenSpades uses.
Some of them may be not avaiable to change via GUI or break the game if changed incorrectly, that's why it's recommended to read this guide first before changing them.
Config variables are located in the file SPConfig.cfg, inside the User Resource Directory.
The SPConfig.cfg file can't be edited if there is any instance of OpenSpades running, because OpenSpades locks the file.
Config variables can be changed by 3 ways.
- Startup Window's "Advanced" tab
- Anytime during gameplay, by typing
/VARIABLE_NAME VALUEin the chat window- This is an unsafe operation; some variables don't support run-time update and it might lead to an unexpected result or application crash
- Directly editing the
SPConfig.cfgfile (not recommended)- See Directories to find it.
- This file can't be edited if OpenSpades is running
Since 0.1.0, there's a button to reset all settings in the Startup Window "General" tab.
In previous versions, you need to:
- Close any instances of OpenSpades
- Go to the User Resource Directory
- Delete
SPConfig.cfg
Each advanced setting has a prefix, which is based on the Quake 3 - Arena settings scheme.
- r_: renderer related
- s_: sound related
- cg_: client game logic related
- cl_: OpenSpades client related
- core_: OpenSpades core code related

(stub)
Enables the realistic depth of field mode. Not suitable for the normal gameplay.
The default operation of this mode is autofocus. The focus can be controlled via mouse wheel. Press the mouse wheel to turn it back to autofocus.
(not to be confused with cg_playerName)
(stub)
When this is set to non-zero value, rendering is done in another thread through SMP Renderer. This might improve performance especially on multi-core system, but you might experience increased input latency.
SMP Renderer is somewhat instable, so use it at your own risk. It actually can be even slower on some systems.
Controls the maximum number of parallelism for background tasks including:
- Environmental lighting (radiosity and ambient occlusion)
- Ragdoll physics
- Ocean water simulation
- Software rendering?
It accepts a non-zero integer or auto, which indicates (stub).
Defaults to auto.
Uses GL_EXT_framebuffer_blit for possibly faster post-processing.
Not implemented
Enables more accurate ragdoll physics sacrificing some CPU time.
(stub)
Enables depth prepass. Reduces overdraw at cost of draw calls.

-
0: 24-bit color framebuffers are used as render targets. -
1(default): 30-bit color framebuffers are used as render targets for smoother gradients. Not supported by some older video cards.
Ignored if r_hdr is not zero, in which case 48-bit FP color framebuffers are always used.
Skips OpenGL error detection. Setting this to 1 may improve performance.
-
0: Cheap ambient lighting. -
1: Enables global illumination (environmental lighting). Requires more than 256MB of VRAM. -
2: Enables global illumination with extra precision. Requires more than 512MB of VRAM.
Specifies the size of shadow maps. Must be a power of two.
