QW PROXY: proxies (Cheapo and Qizmo) are used for routing nework traffic bewteen qwcl and the server.
Addtionally, proxies can modify the data. You connect to the proxy and instruct it modify the data
the way you like it. Then you tell the proxy to connect itself to a server and start filtering data.
In other words it acts as an interface between you and the servers you play on.
07-MAY-00: Configs for Cheapo & Qizmo
I have made a few configs which sets up some handy aliases for fps- and connectionn improvements, chaining (connect from cheapo to public qizmo proxies) + 40 server aliases.
You should put them in your ID1 subdir. Look at the config in a text viewer, since it's well documented.
When you have read and understood it, start cheapo and qwcl.
Then execute proxyservers.cfg and follow the instructions printed in the console.
- easy as eating pancakes :)

07-MAY-00: Public Qizmo proxies - use them!
Download qizmo.cfg
Place it in your id1 dir, fire up qwcl and type "exec qizmo.cfg" in the console (without quotes)
(you should take a glance at the qizmo.cfg before you start)
typing qz1.uk, qz2.uk...qz1.de will connect you to public qw-proxies and let you have
fps enhancements, a VERY good serverbrowser and other nice stuff
- from there you connect to the actual servers
Current (07-MAY-00) list includes proxies in:
Finland 4 | United Kingdom 4 | Poland 4 | Sweden 2
