[I've incorporated some additional information from a second submission from

Andy into this post for clarity -- moderator]

Hopefully, I am the first to bring this information (don't want to repeat

what someone else has already posted about). I have found

Quake's first cheat codes. I found them by using plain old edit on the

quake.exe. You enter these codes from the console.

GOD MODE

should say "GODMODE ON" after you type it. You know what this one does!

NOTARGET

makes it so your enemies don't see you-- unless you fire at them. It

is really cool. You can run through a level without ever being shot at.

NOCLIP

Makes it so you can walk through walls (and you don't die from walking

through them)

FLY MODE

You can fly, pretty cool.

A friend figured out that they toggle themselves on and off without having

to type ON or OFF after each. What sucks is you have to enter them at the

beginning of each level.

I hope these help. I'm still searching for a weapon code.
