<div class="IPBDescription">Anyone else have problems?</div> I have my mouse wheel bound to next/prev weapon for a forward/backward movement, respectively. When I go to next weapon it switches between weps in the upper-left hand corner and allows me to select the wep I want with a left-click. But when I use previous weapon (mousewheel back) instead of cycling through the menu in reverse order and allowing me to click-select my weapon of choice, it instead selects each weapon in turn, making me cycle through the weps much more slowly and unpredictably!!! Considering that not only have I checked my binds and there's no conflict, and I also have this setup for CS where it works without a hitch, this seems to be a bug to me. Anyone else having this problem?

Oy, he ^^^^^^^ explained in 2 billion less words
damn you, languid_heap :DDDD
Simple enough, I figured out what's the problem
There are 3 things in the control menu. They say
Previous Weapon
Next Weapon
Last used weapon (not working)
there's a problem though when you bind it in the control menu, however
Each command binds to:
Previous Weapon - invprev
Next Weapon - impulse 1
Last used weapon (not working) - lastinv
lastinv does not work in NS 1.0, normally it should let you swap between the last weapon you chose
invprev is correct
impulse 1 cycles through the weapons from slot1 to slot2 to slot3 to slot4 and then back to slot1. it selects every weapon along the way
THE SOLUTION TO YOUR PROBLEM:
Go to your Half-Life/NS folder
Open up config.cfg
scroll down to
bind MOUSEWHEELDOWN "impulse1"
and change it to
bind MOUSEWHEELDOWN "invnext"
leave MOUSEWHEELUP set to "invprev"
THIS SHOULD FIX YOUR PROBLEM IN NS
However, this will not show up in the controls menu. The NS team has to fix that
Hope this helped
