<div class="IPBDescription">attack and blink same time on fade?</div> how does ppl attack and blink then attack again so fast?

this may be in the wrong thread, if so im sry, but i think its a script that they are using

Anbu · July 2005

hud_fastswitch 1 in console + the 1 2 and 3 buttons

LigerXT5 · July 2005

still doesnt make since.

my fingures are as put here:
-----left hand:
pinkie over ctrl and shift
ring on a and z
middle/flipper over w and s
pointer over f, e, r, c, v
thumb over space, alt ( mike )

-----right hand:
MOUSE

so how am i going to hit 1,2,3 while trying to move ( moving target harder to hit )
besides i even see ppl swiping and blinking at the same time. ya know flying through the air and swiping same time.

If it doesn't make sense for you maybe you are doing something wrong.

You normally shouldn't have to worry about so many keys when you are only switching between swipe and lea- I mean blink

i find it kinda ez, ya just gotta be fast at hitting buttons, although sometimes it glitches, i'll switch back to attack in mid blink, and i dont c myself attack and it says i killed the guy.

You don't have to use the number keys for weaponswitch. I use ERT45 myself.

when you blink you only hold +attack down for a fraction of a second so you reach max accelleration. As soon as they have clicked the attack button most people instantly switch to thier swipe slot. Movement is controlled with HL air control. I like to aim left of my target on my blink in so I can hold down +moveright (bound to 'd') with my index finger glide to target with the mouse, and at the same time switch between my weapons keys with my ring finger.

I have +jump and +duck both on my mouse so it's one less thing to worry about for my weaponswitch and +move hand.

You can bind slot1 and slot2 to keys other then 1,2,3 etc.. meaning you can set it up for you to select them fastest.

I have slot2 bound to mouse2, slot3 bound to mouseup, and slot1 bound to mouse4. This and hudfastswitch set to 1 is all the configuration you need.

you probably already know this, but just in case you don't.

The swipe animation doesn't actually have to play for it to hurt someone. Infact it usually doesn't if you are changing between blink and swipe very quick.

I always use mswheeldown for slot1 and mwheelup for blink or leap. Works very well for me.

LigerXT5 · July 2005

well thats what i try to do is my mouse whell, prob: up bring up the selction deal at the top, but down wont, it switches emediatly

i may have it backwords but u get the idea

<b>Always use hud_fastswitch 1</b>.

Also, bind keys to <i>slots</i>, rather than moving between slots... if that makes sense. Bind keys to slot1 through slot4, instead of invnext / invprev and the like.

My setup:
mwheelup slot1
mwheeldown slot2
mouse3 (mwheel pres) slot3
x slot4
Works very nice <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

That i like. i shall try that when i get home l8er today. thanks alot.

Ravatar · July 2005

hud_fastswitch 0 + lastinv,

That way I can use any combination of abilities while still keeping mouse1 on +attack
I prefer this way because I use arrow keys for movement.

ReVerthex · July 2005

I use fast weapon switch becuase you can't play without it!
Most of my options are on my mouse who needs scripts when you can just come up with a clever layout?

Keyboard:
w - forward
s - backward
a - strafe left
d - strafe right
e - use
r - reload
f - torch
q - talk
shift - crouch
ctrl - walk
space - jump
c - mini map
v - tuant <-- A must have <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' />

Mouse:
left click - attack
right click - last used attack
scroll up - jump
scroll down - weapon cycle
middle mouse button - popup menu

A fade or skulk with right click for last used attack and fast weapon switch can be very fast.

Spawn in as a skulk press 3 to get leap out, leap around marine then right click then bite then rightclick again and leap away.
Same thing for fade.

LigerXT5 · July 2005

all the controls, except mouse, are the same as what i have BUT i have shift for walk , ya know shifting gears?, and ctrl for crouch

ReVerthex · July 2005

Crouching is used in NS ALOT! Fades usually struggle to hit a marine that just crouched, when flying with a jetpack you always hold down crouch, blinking you hold down crouch, bunny hopping with skulk you hold down crouch so you don't stick to the floor.

shift is bigger than ctrl and your pinky can hold it down with more comfort than ctrl. Ctrl for crouch is very cs like.

The only time you use walk in NS is when your cloaking like a noob, If you want to be stealthy with a marine just crouch.

xxxacexxx · July 2005

i use the best scripts ever:

Pistol Script: bind f "+attack"

Blink/Swipe: bind q "lastinv"

or if you dont like
bind key "weapon_swipe"
bind key "weapon_blink"

Later Dudes

<span style='color:orange'>-Its called the edit button ace-</span>
forgot bind mwheeldown "+jump"

best script i know.
