Making an autoexec worked (you have to copy system.cfg and rename it, or actually people say you can just add your commands to the system.cfg).
Unfortunately the game still ran at a blazing 15-20 FPS with the ever present stuttering. e_tesselation 0 didn't seem to do anything, and I know the config is working because I also put in g_skipinto 1 and that worked just fine.
Sigh.
Edit: Also does anyone know how the fuck you get to the Alpha forums?
