Quake3World

I am sure this is a common question from noobs such as myself but I have tried the methods posted and they didnt work for me, I had it once but I totally forgot, if someone could tell me it would be greatly apreciated

It should be enabled first, most commonly run through a mod. After that i believe you should pull down the console by pressing ~ and enter /bind <key> "weapon 10"
I think :icon32: never use the grapple

To use the grapple hook, first it must be enabled on the server and you must bind a key or button to use it. In baseq3 the command would be as follows: "/bind x weapon 10". In OSP it would be "/bind x +button5". A good idea is to put this in your config: /bind x "weapon 10; +button5" that way, either way you'll have it set. Just replace the "x" with any key or button of your choice.
