Way to Disable the escape key/menu system?

Hi all,

I was wondering is there a way I can disable access to the in game menu of the game while its running?

Either by disabling the menu completely or just disabling the escape key so it cant be accessed?

Ideally I would like to do something in game rather than having to resort to AHK scripts or the like to change button mappings.

Any help appreciated :slight_smile:

If you open the q3config.cfg file, you’ll see the line bind ESCAPE "togglemenu". What you want to do is to add a file named autoexec.cfg beside it, and put unbind ESCAPE in the newly created file.
But you should probably also keep a way to toggle the menu. For that, add another line bind F12 "togglemenu" in autoexec.cfg (or with another key instead of F12).
