Jump Key

shenk · January 2005

I wonder what's the best key for bunnyhop/jump. So I decided to ask here on the forums to see what keys the players feel that is way much better to do so. I also apologize if this has been asked or posted before.

I for one been playing with mouse wheel down recently and well.. it's nice.

Peace,
shenk

For bunnyhopping, I assume mousewheel would be the optimal.

space <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /> definitely for me <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

It depends.

If you use scripts, you can have it on any key. Personally I have it on mouse2 when using a 3jump script, but space or any other kay (except mwheel) can work.

If you dont use a script and still want to bunnyhop, I'd say mwheelup or mwheeldown, since with these keys you can execute several quick jump commands, which is needed to bunnyjump.

Scripts: any key
No scripts: mwheel

my jump = mouse2 <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /> though lerking was a little awkward at first.

I use the right ctrl button :/

hmz · January 2005

right shift ftw <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

and well for bunnyhop... practice =)

Shockeh · January 2005

Space + Mwheel, depending on what class I am and/or what I'm doing.

- Shockwave

Just don't use Q, for christ's sake, it's like a little finger dance. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

But i'm too used to using Q for jump (space is use, E is crouch), used the same key layout for about a decade now, too set in my ways to change.

shenk · January 2005

I do have an 3jump script. It looks very strange to me instead of gaining speed per jump I lose it. Wasn't it supposed to boost your speed? Maybe I don't know how to bunnyhop properly, but anyway,... I never did it properly.

Somehow bunnyhopping is the only thing I'm not capable of doing right and properly

I must be the odd one out here - I use:

Right click for jump
Q = use
e = reload
space = walk
left shift = duck

You think that's wierd? Lemmie see if I can find TyrNemesis's config - it boggled my mind when he posted it.

[EDIT] Here we go:

MrRadicalEd · January 2005

I use a weird setup in my config that I invented for myself back in the Quake days

Q: +moveleft
W: +forward
E: +moveright
D: +back

then I have your standard shift(duck) and space(jump)

Nemesis_Zero · January 2005

<span style='color:white'>***Moved.***</span>

BadMouth · January 2005

so tyrnemesis is left handed?

Eggman · January 2005

I actually put both space and mousewheel up on jump so I can bunnyhop or lerk or jetpack easily without having to switch controls around... but it depends if you need the spacebar for something else.

Cartman_PL · January 2005

Mwheelup ftw.

Svenpa · January 2005

I cant use mwheel up when trying to bhop, it distracts my mouse movement so much when i have to scroll all the time.

Alcapwn · January 2005

just use the button on the mousewheel....you know, when you click down on it.

With that and a little timing, youll be bunnyhoppin like me! (which is good!)

I'm lefthanded, and my mouse is on the right side, with standard WSAD with a switch around here and there.

intensityrising · January 2005

Space bar is fine for me. I can't dream about use mwheel to jump.

h3nkos · January 2005

You dont really need the mouewheel for bunnyhopping without scripts, it just requires some practice. Like someone else said, using the mousewheel distracts my mousemovements so I bunnyhop, noscripted, with space.

attrition · January 2005

I think adj might be left handed to because he told me once that he uses the right shift key for flying with the lerk....

Gecko_God_Of_Dooom · January 2005

i use mouse3, mwheeldown, and kp_plus for jumping
