Console variables/Complete list

From WoWWiki

This list's Game-wide section is complete. It has been created by using the -console tag, pulling up the console, and using cvarlist.

It was last updated for patch 3.2.0a

This list's Char-wide section is believed to be complete. It has been created by scanning GetCVarDefault for all likely strings.

It was last updated for patch 2.4.

This list is NOT complete as of 3.0.3. I will update Console variables with some camera values not listed here. Anyone up for a rescan? Kopokopolo (talk) 15:35, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
