Code: [Select]

When in doubt, `cmdlist` and `cvarlist` are your friend. There's also tab-completion at the console for commands and console variables.

Could you post console logs from your Q2 client when the HTTP problem occurs?

Maybe it's something we can fix.

(console text can be saved to disk with the condump command)

Quake II is not 27 years old. I refuse to accept THAT much time has gone by.
