United Offensive console reference

This is the command manual. Console variables are documented separately in the complete United Offensive cvar reference table; cvar implementation flags do not replace the command documentation below.

How to use this page

Every stock command word found in the maintained STRICT_STOCK client, renderer, cgame, UI, server engine, and game-module dispatchers appears in the table below. Command names are case-insensitive. Angle brackets mark a required value; square brackets mark an optional value. Text such as [argument ...] may contain more than one token.

The Cheat-protected column says yes only when that command’s handler checks sv_cheats. Other requirements—being connected, alive, outside intermission, running a server, or starting with developer enabled—are spelled out separately. Commands marked internal are included for completeness but are normally generated by the UI, cgame, or server rather than typed.

The open-ended pb_* namespace is delegated to the external PunkBuster runtime. Stock source does not enumerate that runtime’s individual commands, so this page does not invent a list for it.

addip	addip <ip-mask>	Running game module; server console or rcon	No	Adds one address mask to the game module’s IP-filter list and rewrites g_banIPs. Omitted octets are wildcards (the parser builds a byte mask); invalid text is rejected. The list holds 1,024 filters.
banClient	banClient <client-number>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Permanently bans the connected player in the numeric slot. Requires a running server; use status to find slots. The local listen-server host cannot be removed.
banUser	banUser <player-name>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Permanently bans the connected player whose displayed or color-stripped name matches. Requires a running server. The local listen-server host cannot be removed.
bind	bind <key> [command ...]	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	With only a key, prints its current binding. With command text, replaces the binding. Quote multi-command bindings, for example bind F5 "say hello; +scores".
bindlist	bindlist	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	List all non-empty key bindings.
callvote	callvote <type> [argument ...]	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Starts a 30-second vote if voting and that vote type are enabled, no vote is active, and the caller is not a spectator. Stock types are map_restart, map_rotate, map, g_gametype, typemap, kick, clientkick, tempBanUser, tempBanClient, drawfriend, killcam, and friendlyfire.
centerview	centerview	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Resets view pitch to the centered angle relative to the current snapshot. It does not change yaw.
cg_shellshock	cg_shellshock <seconds> [definition]	Client; cgame loaded	No	Starts a client-only shellshock for the requested number of seconds. With a definition name, first loads scripts/<name>.shock; otherwise it uses the currently loaded cg_shock_* settings.
cg_shellshock_load	cg_shellshock_load <name>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Loads scripts/<name>.shock into the client shellshock cvars. It prints an error and leaves the current settings unchanged if the file cannot be loaded.
cg_shellshock_save	cg_shellshock_save <name>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Writes the current shellshock cvar set under the supplied name. This is an authoring command, not a gameplay command.
cinematic	cinematic <name> [1|2|3]	Client	No	Starts a full-screen cinematic. The optional mode is selected by its first character: 1 holds the last frame, 2 loops, and 3 uses letterboxing. end.roq and demoend.roq are held automatically.
clear	clear	Client	No	Blanks the client console’s scrollback buffer and returns its display cursor to the bottom; it does not clear command history or cvars.
clientinfo	clientinfo	Client	No	Prints the numeric client connection state, remembered server name, and the complete user-info cvar string.
clientkick	clientkick <client-number>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Drops the connected player in the numeric slot. Requires a running server; use status to find the slot. The local listen-server host cannot be kicked.
cmd	cmd <server-command ...>	Client	No	Sends exactly the text after cmd as a reliable client command. It works only while fully active on a server and is disabled during demo playback. Normally used for server/game commands that would otherwise collide with a local command.
cmdlist	cmdlist [filter]	Client and dedicated server	No	Prints every currently registered engine command and a count. The optional filter uses the engine wildcard filter, so cmdlist r_* lists renderer-style names. Direct UI/game-dispatch words are not necessarily registered and may not appear.
condump	condump <filename>	Client	No	Writes all nonblank console scrollback lines to the virtual filesystem, trimming trailing spaces. It requires exactly one filename.
configstrings	configstrings	Client	No	Prints the index and text of every nonempty configstring. It works only while the client is fully active on a server.
connect	connect <server[:port]>	Client	No	Stops sounds, closes any current connection/listen server, resolves the address, supplies port 28960 when omitted, validates the CD key for a non-local address, and starts the challenge handshake.
crash	crash	Client/server; registered at startup only with developer nonzero	No	Developer test command that deliberately writes through a null pointer and crashes the process. It is registered only when developer was nonzero during engine initialization.
cubemapShot	cubemapShot <size> <base> [water r0 g0 b0 r90 g90 b90 | fresnel n0 n1]	Client	Yes — sv_cheats; map loaded	Captures six TGA faces under env/<base>_*.tga. Size must be a power of two from 4 through 1,024. It requires a loaded map and sv_cheats 1; optional water colors or fresnel indices change generated face data.
cvar_restart	cvar_restart	Client and dedicated server	No	Deletes user-created cvars and force-resets the others, except cvars marked init-only, read-only, or no-restart. This is broad state reset, not a renderer/server restart.
cvardump	cvardump [filter]	Client and dedicated server	No	Writes cvar names, active values, and any latched values to console channel 0. Stock suppresses that channel unless logfile is nonzero; the optional wildcard filter limits printed rows but not the reported total.
cvarlist	cvarlist [filter]	Client and dedicated server	No	Lists matching cvar names and values with compact flag letters, followed by total cvar and index counts. The optional argument is a wildcard filter.
demo	demo <name[.dm_3]>	Client	No	Disconnects and plays demos/<name>.dm_3; the suffix may be supplied. A listen server cannot play a demo. Use timedemo 1 before playback for the stock benchmark path.
devmap	devmap <map> [noautoexec]	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Loads the multiplayer BSP, executes <map>_<g_gametype>.cfg unless noautoexec is supplied, and forces sv_cheats to 1 after loading. Reloading the current map uses the warm restart path.
dir	dir <directory> [extension]	Client and dedicated server	No	Lists files immediately inside a virtual filesystem directory. The optional extension is passed as the extension filter; it is not an OS-directory listing.
disconnect	disconnect	Client	No	Stops a cinematic or disconnects the current remote session through the engine’s normal cleanup path. When already disconnected or only showing a logo, it has no further effect.
dumpuser	dumpuser <player-name>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Prints the full userinfo string for the connected player whose displayed or color-stripped name matches. Requires a running server.
echo	echo [text ...]	Client and dedicated server	No	print its arguments.
entitycount	entitycount	Connected client; consumed by running game module	Yes — sv_cheats; not intermission	Prints level.num_entities to the server/game console. The client receives no formatted reply. It does nothing unless sv_cheats is enabled and the client is outside intermission.
entitylist	entitylist	Running game module; server console or rcon	No	Lists each linked game entity with number, entity type, script classname (when present), and origin, followed by the number in use. Requires a running game module.
error	error [drop]	Client/server; registered at startup only with developer nonzero	No	Developer test command. With no argument it raises a fatal engine error; with any argument it raises a recoverable drop error. Registered only when developer was nonzero during initialization.
exec	exec <filename[.cfg]>	Client and dedicated server	No	Reads and inserts a config file at the front of the command buffer; .cfg is appended when absent. With sv_console_lockout active, the server also announces the file name, size, and checksum in chat.
fade	fade <r> <g> <b> <alpha> <seconds>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Starts the client screen/FOV fade using alpha 0–255 and an integer duration in seconds. Stock parses but discards the three RGB values, so the visible fade is always black.
fdc	fdc <inflictor-client-number>	Connected client; consumed by running game module	No	Internal gameplay bookkeeping command: records the supplied client number as the issuing player’s latest flame-damage inflictor and stamps the current level time. It requires exactly one numeric argument and is normally engine/game generated.
fdir	fdir <filter>	Client and dedicated server	No	Recursively lists sorted virtual paths matching the engine wildcard filter and prints the match count. Example: fdir *mp_*.bsp.
follow	follow	Connected client; name-only stock registration, no game handler	No	Registered on the client for completion/forwarding, but the stock UO game-module dispatcher has no follow branch. Sending it to an unmodified server therefore produces no follow action.
follownext	follownext	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	While outside intermission, cycles spectator/archive follow to the next eligible client, wrapping at the end of the client array.
followprev	followprev	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	While outside intermission, cycles spectator/archive follow to the previous eligible client, wrapping at the beginning of the client array.
freeze	freeze <seconds>	Client/server; registered at startup only with developer nonzero	No	Developer test command that busy-waits for the requested number of seconds, freezing the process. Registered only when developer was nonzero during initialization.
fs_openedList	fs_openedList	Client	No	Prints the names of PK3 archives currently opened by the client filesystem.
fs_referencedList	fs_referencedList	Client	No	Prints the PK3 archives marked referenced for pure-server checksum negotiation.
fullpath	fullpath	Client and dedicated server	No	Prints the virtual search path and open file handles. On the stock Windows client it filters disabled/wrong-language localized paths; on the dedicated Linux path it behaves like path.
fxRestart	fxRestart	Client; cgame loaded	No	Frees all active client effects and reinitializes the FX system so offline effect-file changes can be reloaded.
fxSetTestPosition	fxSetTestPosition	Client; cgame loaded	No	Stores and prints a test origin 100 units in front of the current camera. fxTest uses this origin.
fxTest	fxTest <effect-file> [repeat-seconds]	Client; cgame loaded	No	Registers and immediately plays the named effect at the stored test position. When a repeat interval is supplied it is converted from seconds to milliseconds for periodic replay; otherwise repetition is disabled.
gameCompleteStatus	gameCompleteStatus	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Submit the server’s game-complete status through the master-server path.
gc	gc <client-number> <message-index>	Connected client; consumed by running game module	No	Sends one of seven fixed tactical messages to the target client and echoes it to the sender. Message indices are 0 through 6; invalid clients/indices are ignored.
gfxinfo	gfxinfo	Client; renderer initialized	No	Print renderer/OpenGL configuration information.
give	give <all|health|weapons|ammo|allammo|item-name> [amount]	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	Yes — sv_cheats; alive; not intermission	Cheat command for a living player. health restores max health when amount is omitted; weapons grants every weapon; ammo fills owned weapons or adds to the current weapon; allammo <amount> adds to every weapon; any other text is looked up as an item name. all performs the combined branches.
globalservers	globalservers <master-number> <protocol> [keywords ...]	Client	No	Clears/ages the global browser list and sends getservers to coduomaster.activision.com:20610. The master-number token is required but this build always uses that single hostname; protocol and keywords are placed in the query.
gocrouch	gocrouch	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Enter crouch stance.
god	god	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	Yes — sv_cheats; alive; not intermission	Toggle god mode for the issuing player.
goprone	goprone	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Enter prone stance.

in_restart	in_restart	Client; Dedicated server console or rcon	No	Restart the input subsystem.
jumptodemoend	jumptodemoend [bytes-to-leave]	Client	No	During demo playback, repeatedly reads demo messages until fewer than the requested trailing bytes remain. With no argument it uses zero. It does nothing outside demo playback.
jumptonode	jumptonode	Connected client; name-only stock registration, no game handler	No	Registered on the client for completion/forwarding, but the stock UO game-module dispatcher has no jumptonode branch; it has no action on an unmodified server.
kick	kick <player-name|all>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Drops the named player, or every non-host player when the exact argument is all. Name matching accepts the displayed or color-stripped form. Requires a running server; the listen-server host is protected.
kill	kill	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Kills the issuing player as a suicide. It only acts while the player session is in the playing state and outside intermission; it is not cheat-protected.
killcam	killcam [seconds]	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Moves the issuing client into archive spectator mode for the requested duration. Values below 1 use the stock 20-second default. This is normally issued by game/UI flow, not as an everyday player command.
killserver	killserver	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Shut down the running server with the server-killed reason.
levelshot	levelshot	Connected client; name-only stock registration, no game handler	No	Registered on the client for completion/forwarding, but the stock UO game-module dispatcher has no levelshot branch. For renderer levelshots, the implemented form is screenshot levelshot.
listip	listip	Running game module; server console or rcon	No	Queues the g_banIPs cvar for display. Use it after addip or removeip to see the serialized filter list.
loadhud	loadhud	Client; cgame loaded	No	Clears the cgame menu registry, reinitializes strings, and reloads ui_mp/hud.txt. Intended for HUD authoring/debugging.
localizeSoundAliasFiles	localizeSoundAliasFiles	Client	No	Authoring tool: copies the source StringEd subtitle file locally, scans soundaliases/*.csv, updates localized subtitle records, and copies the final file back. It requires the source-data file to be writable.
localservers	localservers	Client	No	Clears the local browser list and broadcasts getinfo xxx twice to UDP ports 28960–28963.
logo	logo <image-base> <fade-in-seconds> <hold-seconds> <fade-out-seconds>	Client	No	Shows two shaders named <image-base>1 and <image-base>2 as a full-screen logo, with the supplied fade/hold timings. It only starts from disconnected, logo, or cinematic state.
lowerstance	lowerstance	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Move down one stance level.
map	map <map> [noautoexec]	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Loads the multiplayer BSP, executes <map>_<g_gametype>.cfg unless noautoexec is supplied, and forces sv_cheats to 0 after loading. Reloading the current map uses the warm restart path.
map_restart	map_restart	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Warm-restarts the current map/game VM, preserves the engine map load, advances the server id, runs three 100-ms warm-up frames, and reconnects active clients. It requires a running server.
map_rotate	map_rotate	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Consumes sv_mapRotationCurrent (or reloads it from sv_mapRotation) until a map directive is reached. Recognized directives are exec, allow_jeeps, allow_tanks, gametype, and map; malformed rotations fall back to map_restart.
matchtimein	matchtimein	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Ends the issuing team’s active timeout early and starts the configured recovery countdown. The caller must be a playing member of the team that called the timeout.
matchtimeout	matchtimeout	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Pauses match time by setting timescale to zero when timeouts are enabled. The caller must be an active Allies/Axis player, no timeout/recovery may be active, and the team must have quota and time remaining.

record	record [name]	Client	No	Starts a network demo while fully active in a level. With no name, chooses the first unused demos/demo0000.dm_3 through demo9999.dm_3; with a name, writes that path. It refuses while already recording.
removeip	removeip <ip-mask>	Running game module; server console or rcon	No	Removes the exactly matching parsed IP mask from the game module filter list and rewrites g_banIPs; prints whether a match was found.

tcmd	tcmd <message-index>	Client; cgame loaded	No	send gc <crosshair-client> <order> for a recent target.
team	team	Connected client; name-only stock registration, no game handler	No	Registered on the client for completion/forwarding, but the stock UO game-module dispatcher has no team branch. Stock team selection is handled by UI/script flow rather than this command word.
tell	tell <client-number> <message ...>	Client; Connected client; consumed by a running game module; Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	From a client, sends direct chat to a numeric client slot and echoes it to the sender. From a dedicated console, sends console: <message> only to an active numeric slot.
tell_target	tell_target <message ...>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Sends the remaining text to the crosshair client acquired within the last second. It silently does nothing when that target is stale or absent.

toggle	toggle <cvar> [value ...]	Client and dedicated server	No	With no value list, switches the cvar between numeric 0 and 1. With values, advances to the item after the exact current string, wrapping to the first; a value not in the list also selects the first.
toggleconsole	toggleconsole	Client	No	Opens or closes the client console and clears the current input line. When con_restricted is nonzero, opening requires Shift; while disconnected, closing also queues the stock d1 demo-loop command.
togglecrouch	togglecrouch	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Toggle crouch stance.
toggleprone	toggleprone	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Toggle prone stance.
touchFile	touchFile <file>	Client and dedicated server	No	open/touch a virtual file through the filesystem.
trace_profile	trace_profile	Connected client; consumed by running game module	No	Internal empty stock game-module stub. It is accepted outside intermission but intentionally produces no output or state change.
ufo	ufo	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	Yes — sv_cheats; alive; not intermission	Toggle UFO movement mode.
ui_cache	ui_cache	Client; UI loaded	No	Walks every loaded UI menu and pre-caches its referenced assets. Intended to avoid first-use asset loads during UI testing.
ui_cdkey	ui_cdkey	Client; UI loaded	No	Consumes the command in the UI dispatcher but performs no additional handler call. It is an internal UI command word.
ui_load	ui_load	Client; UI loaded	No	Reloads game-type and arena data plus the menu file named by ui_menuFiles (default ui_mp/menus.txt), closes all menus, then reopens the previously focused named menu when possible.
ui_report	ui_report	Client; UI loaded	No	Prints the UI string allocator’s usage report.
ui_test	ui_test	Client; UI loaded	No	Shows the post-game UI. Because of a stock return-value bug, the UI reports it unhandled afterward and the engine may also forward the already-executed word toward the server.
unbanUser	unbanUser <client-name>	Running/listen/dedicated server console or rcon	No	Removes the supplied client-name identity from the server authorization ban store. Despite the callback’s usage text saying unban, the registered command name is unbanUser.
unbind	unbind <key>	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	clear one key binding.
unbindall	unbindall	Client; gameplay input initialized	No	Clear every key binding.
updatehunkusage	updatehunkusage	Client	No	Updates hunkusage.dat for the current map using the current hunk allocation. If the stored value already matches, it leaves the file untouched.
updatescreen	updatescreen	Client	No	Forces one screen update only while client state is CA_LOADING; in other states it does nothing.
vid_restart	vid_restart	Client	No	Restarts renderer, UI, and cgame, preserving/restoring cgame state when possible and rechecking pure files. It is refused while a listen server is running.
viewpos	viewpos	Client; cgame loaded	No	Print integer view origin and yaw/spin values.
voice	voice <token ...>	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Passes the remaining text to the issuing player’s vsay script notification. It is the server-side endpoint used by the client’s low-level voice-command queue.
VoiceChat	VoiceChat <token>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Forwards the token as a global vsay request through the client command path. It is rejected for a non-intermission spectator; the stock non-team handler accepts any even total argument count but uses only the first token.
VoiceTeamChat	VoiceTeamChat <token>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Forwards exactly one token as a team vsay_team request. It is rejected for a non-intermission spectator.
vote	vote <yes|no>	Connected client; consumed by a running game module	No	Casts a yes/no vote, or answers an active complaint prompt. It requires a vote in progress and rejects repeat votes and spectators. Stock reliably recognizes lowercase y; because of its original second-byte bug, bare Y and bare 1 count as no.
vsay	vsay <command token-pairs ...>	Client	No	Stages alternating voice-command token pairs. After 250 ms the client sends one pair as voice; repeating the identical command rotates through its pairs. This is the low-level command used by voice menus.
vstr	vstr <cvar>	Client and dedicated server	No	insert the cvar’s string as console commands.
wait	wait [frames]	Client and dedicated server	No	Stops command-buffer execution for the requested number of frames; omission means one frame. Use it inside config command sequences, not as a real-time millisecond delay.
weapalt	weapalt	Client; cgame loaded	No	Select the current weapon’s alternate weapon when available.
weapnext	weapnext	Client; cgame loaded	No	When the scoreboard is open, scrolls it upward. Otherwise selects the next held weapon after the cycle delay, or asks the server for the next vehicle slot while mounted.
weaponslot	weaponslot <slot-name|number>	Client; cgame loaded	No	Selects the held weapon assigned to the named or numeric slot. It requires an active, non-following player and obeys the weapon-cycle delay; most vehicle positions reject it.
weapprev	weapprev	Client; cgame loaded	No	When the scoreboard is open, scrolls it downward. Otherwise selects the previous held weapon after the cycle delay, or asks the server for the previous vehicle slot while mounted.
where	where	Connected client; consumed by running game module	No	Print the issuing player’s current origin.
writeconfig	writeconfig <filename[.cfg]>	Client; Dedicated server console or rcon	No	Write archived cvars and bindings to the requested or default config file.
