Helpful things to get you started with CPMA.
If you do not have CPMA then go Download it first before coming to a server to play it.
Nothing more frustraing than having to answer questions over and over while trying to play.
Get CPMA here ---> WWW.Promode.org

If you truely want to enjoy the game then get your self sorted first.
It takes no time at all to get a config that is ready to play with.

A: enemy model. cg_enemymodel keel/pm <... keel can be replaced by any model of your chossing.
I use Keel most of the time becasue he is just big and loud.
The PM is needed to use the colors. So do not forget that. keel/pm

B: Enemy Colors. cg_enemycolors 2222. this would make Keel Bright Green.

C: cg_forcemodel - set this to '1' to make all of your teammates look like your model.

D: Go into setup and choose a PM version of the model you play with. Then you can mess about
with the colors of your model in there as well.

E: ch_3wavefont 0 - If you do not have the 3Wave Fonts, you may need to execute
this in order to be able to read the onscreen text.
(Just been hearing of ppl not being able to see text) This will sort it in the beta.

F: some sound problems. Try cg_predictItems 0. Should clear up things for you.

II. In Game Commands
In the game, things are a little different. Here are some of the items that you will need to know.

A. map - There isn't a map rotation on the server, so you need to callvote a new map. The procedure is /callvote map <mapname> For example,
callvote map pro-q3dm6

B. speclock - once the match begins, you probably want to prevent the other team from looking at your surviving member's health and armor status,
location, etc. To prevent this, issue a /speclock 1 command. speclock 0 cancels this action.

C. lock/unlock - If a new player joins the server, and you want to allow that person to join a team, the unlock command is used to unlock the team. To
unlock your team, simply type /unlock

D. Pause - each team is allowed 1 timeout. To use the timeout, issue a /pause command. Generally this is only used in a scrimmage or match. Use on a
public server is poor ettiquette.

E. wstats - bind a key to '-wstats' to hide the stats after you are done with them at the end of a round. '+wstats' to see them at any time.
