I figured out the mouselook - it's +mlook. I completely forgot about 
that one. The GLQuake looks great, but I wish I had my old config. I 
think I had a right mouse click grenade launcher, left click regular 
weapon. And I had my name animated like crazy. Is there a resource for 
all the old quake commands? I've been looking around but not much any 
more.
