Note that this following table may fall out of date between versions. In a multiplayer game, only the host can change these settings unless SV_Cheats is 1. For example, adding 2048 to DMFLAGS turns Infinite Ammo on, however adding 131072 to DMFLAGS2 turns freelook off, since on is the default state. Contrary to how one might expect it to function, the setting is simply toggled from the default when the value is set. The following table lists each of the flags currently available, along with the values needed, which CVAR you should put that value in, and what the default state of each setting is (on or off). To make the change effective from the command line, use “+set dmflags XXXX”. This number is created by adding the values for each argument you want to use. You can set the flags via the in-game menu (Options → Gameplay options), however you can also set the options directly from the command line or console.Īt the console, type “dmflags XXXX”, where XXXX is a number representing which flags should be toggled. Most only affect Deathmatch games, hence the name, however others only affect Cooperative games and some work in all game modes. There are 2 CVARs in ZDoom that control certain gameplay flags, namely DMFLAGS and DMFLAGS2.
