Can you believe it? Weapons Factory Arena was released in the summer of Y2K! This coming July (26th) marks the 20th year of the mod being available for public enjoyment. Let’s keep it going!
Demo/Video Recording
Here are a few useful console commands for recording demos and subsequent videos in iOQuake3. Note that iOQ3 (Windows) stores the data in %appdata%\Quake3\wfa.
-fuzion
| Command | Purpose |
| cl_autoRecordDemo | Record a new demo on each map change |
| cl_aviFrameRate | Choose the framerate for the video |
| record | Start recording a demo |
| stoprecord | Stop recording the demo |
| video | Start recording an AVI of the demo |
| stopvideo | Stops recording the AVI of the demo |
Q3WFA.com
Q3WFA.com has been procured and redirects here. The primary goal of obtaining the domain is to shorten the amount of typing needed in the console. i.e., /connect to something.weaponsfactoryarena.com isn’t so great to type. /connect something.q3wfa.com is easier. Or i’m just lazy. Probably just lazy.
