Unlocking UDK Console
  • Go to "<steam folder>\steamapps\common\qube\Engine\Config".
  • Open "BaseInput.ini" in Notepad.
  • Remove the semicolon from "ConsoleKey=Tilde" line, just like this:
    [Engine.Console] ConsoleKey=Tilde
Disable mouse smoothing
  • Go to "<steam folder>\steamapps\common\qube\Engine\Config".
  • Open "BaseInput.ini" in Notepad.
  • Change "bEnableMouseSmoothing" to "false", just like this:
    [Engine.PlayerInput] bEnableMouseSmoothing=false

Note that changing "MouseSensitivity" in this file has no effect.
Removing FPS cap
  • Go to "<steam folder>\steamapps\common\qube\Engine\Config".
  • Open "BaseEngine.ini" in Notepad.
  • Change "bSmoothFrameRate" to "FALSE", just like this:
    [Engine.Engine] <lots of lines here> bSmoothFrameRate=FALSE

Alternatively, you may also change the default "MinSmoothedFrameRate=22" and "MaxSmoothedFrameRate=62".
Changing FOV
  • Make sure you have enabled the console in BaseInput.ini file. If you haven't, please follow the instructions above.
  • When inside the game, press tilde key (~).
  • Type "FOV 120". The default seems to be 90.
Changing keyboard controls
  • Go to "<steam folder>\steamapps\common\qube\UDKGame\Config".
  • Open "UDKGame.ini" in Notepad.
  • Change the following lines, near the end of the file:
    [UTGame.UTPlayerInput] Bindings=(Name="SpaceBar",Command="GBA_Jump", ... Bindings=(Name="W",Command="GBA_MoveForward", ... Bindings=(Name="S",Command="GBA_Backward", ... Bindings=(Name="A",Command="GBA_StrafeLeft", ... Bindings=(Name="D",Command="GBA_StrafeRight", ...

And for the love of goodness disable Depth of Field! It's one of the biggest FPS hogs. :)

Yeah, I know this guide is quite a few years old by now, but I wanted to say thanks. I love this game to death and every once in a while I pick it back up to relax. My gaming laptop came out years after this game did and FPS would still chug unless I played in a small window - all I had to do was unlock the FPS as per this guide and the game plays GREAT in Fullscreen now! :)

Thanks for this. Nice game, but I kept getting queasy with the narrow FOV.

Note for people with UK keyboards: I found the key to open the console is the ' key (with the @ symbol on it, near ENTER).
