💖 WOLFMP(6) — Return to Castle Wolfenstein multi-player 💖

okay bestie, gather round, because this one is a Games Manual classic and we're about to get into it 🎀 the manual page is literally called WOLFMP(6) and it's giving "I shoot people for a living but make it 2001" energy. no cap.

✨ NAME ✨

wolfmp — Return to Castle Wolfenstein multi-player 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

wolfmp [-h|--help] [-q|--quiet] [+set option value]...  [+command] ...

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

wolfmp runs the multi-player version of the first-person shooter Return to Castle Wolfenstein. that's it, that's the whole vibe. you and the girlies, one castle, zero chill. 🔥

👑 OPTIONS 👑

The wrapper script used for RTCW in Debian accepts these options, and yes we're listing every single one, periodt:

  • -h, --help — Display a short help summary. it's giving "I got lost, help a sister out" 💖
  • -q, --quiet — Disable all output. not a single peep. silent. lowkey iconic. 🤫

Any console command can also be prefixed with + and used as a command-line option (press Shift+Esc to access the in-game console), including:

  • +set option value — Set an option (see below for some options) ✨
  • +connect server[:port] — Connect to a server 🌈

🎀 Options that can be set with +set 🎀

note that this is not a full list! it's just the ones the manpage is showing off. don't come for me, I'm just the messenger. 💀
  • r_fullscreen <bool> — 1: Play in fullscreen mode; 0: Play in window mode. main character energy vs. windowed gremlin energy, your call 🫶
  • r_mode <num> — Sets the screen resolution mode. Set num to -1 to use a customized resolution set via r_customheight and r_customwidth, or -2 to use your normal desktop resolution. yes, negative numbers, we love a plot twist 😭
  • r_customwidth <pixels> — Use pixels as width if r_mode is set to -1.
  • r_customheight <pixels> — Use pixels as height if r_mode is set to -1.

🦋 FILES 🦋

  • ~/.wolf/main — Configuration and state for RTCW. that's where all your little secrets live, bestie 💜

🧚 ENVIRONMENT 🧚

The wrapper script used to launch RTCW allows it to be debugged by setting environment variables. yes we're getting technical, and yes it still slays.

  • RTCW_DEBUGGER=command — A debugger or other prefix to prepend to the RTCW command line, such as strace; overridden by RTCW_BACKTRACE 🩺
  • RTCW_BACKTRACE=1 — Use gdb(1) to get a backtrace if RTCW crashes (the gdb package must be installed for this to work). so like, when it absolutely eats it, this is the receipts 🔥
