Wow, I just tried binding +attack to my mousewheel .... it sucked. I removed the bind, just because it sucked that bad.. It was obvious too, I would fire 3 round bursts, instead of a constant stream of bullets...
How can you use something like that? I like my mouse wheel changing weapons as a gorge and stuff

Why do you need a script to do that? That requires no work, none, nada, zilch. I do it about 3 times a game. Pretty easy doing it manually.

Align · January 2004

I just realised I do use a script. But since it is in autoexec.cfg, will it be detected by 3.0?
alias showmap1 "+showmap; alias showmapx showmap2"
alias showmap2 "-showmap; alias showmapx showmap1"
alias showmapx showmap1

[note: I didn't even make this myself, I was too lazy at the time to figure out a way to do it. Thanks whoever made it, toggling map is way nicer.]

(unless you want to argue that that person who scripts saved 1/2 a second because he pushed a button rather than going to the pop-up menu). I agree with whoever said that it's just hotkeys just like a commander had, you have every right to do this, a commander has it so why shouldn't aliens?

However, you cannot tell me that scripting during a battle doesn't make you any better of a fighter. The only ones i've seen that don't agree with this is 90% of the veteran community. Your job as a vet isn't to use scripts, you're here to set an example to everyone else, why do you think we call you a veteran? Haven't you ever had a job before? When you become a veteran, you have to set an example, setting an example doesn't involve using scripts for battles, it involves using your natural skills that you learned while playing the game. It means that you have played the game long enough that you know the right angles and times to attack a person of the opposite team. I have seen very few examples of a veteran player that actually acts as a role model instead of a script freak who wants to indirectly exploit the game.

You guys should just come out and admit that you want to be the best player out there or on the server, just so you can have the fame of it all. But the rest of us really don't care because we know it wasn't your natural skill that got you there.

You better start learning how to change your stragtegy to compensate for no scripts, because i can't see any gamemaker (including Flayra) to go on the side of the minority (veterans/scripters).  </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> 
did you know 53.5% of statistics are made up on the spot? 90% of the veteran community? the veteran "community" is a world-wide community that I am sure you can hardly measure yourself. not to mention you have 2 posts. Im not trying to defend ALL the vets, just the ones out there who I know like to play the game for the fun of it.

Kathos · January 2004

Scripts are both good and evil.

Good:
Buying ammo and nades (CS)
Med/ammo req, enemy sighted @..etc.

Bad:
Firing 10 bulets in one second
etc.

I personally use scripts, al tho i haven't found any for NS. Flame all you want.

Buying things and doing things are different. The main difference is that you aren't shooting someone.

As for the automatic shooting crap. What the hell is the point of having an auto-shoot when you can shoot yourself? Unless your firing upon some idiot standing still, you can't do crap. One example of this is a Dualie Firing script I used once. I was like, Sweet! All 30 bullets in 3 seconds! Yeah...It's no fun you someone knows you're using that script, lures you to a cliff so you start firing, then sitbacks and laughs their butts off while you fall, still firing.

So scripting can be good and evil, it just depends on how lazy you are.

edit: oh yeah, I approve of what mp_blockscripts does. It gives control to the owner/renter of the server, that they are spending there (hopefully) hard earned money on. I also like how it doesn't block all. So we can still have our health/ammo macros <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'> .

A pistol script. You used to be able to fire your entire clip in 1 second if you could pull the trigger fast enough, or if you had a script that did it for you. That is why pistols now have a firing rate cap of 7.5 rounds per second.

"Bad:

etc. = _special bhop script.

Those are the only 2 bad scripts... you can remove them by blocking _special. Leave the rest of the scripts in imo. they don't hurt anyone.

Imho, goods news on the 3.0f change :>

"O Added anti-scripting code (activated when mp_blockscripts is 1). When
enabled, it blocks any command with wait, _special, exec or a ; in it. This is
off by default."

everyone can find a server that suits them. I hope that servers make it plain that they have the anti-scripting enabled/disabled.

From the 3.0f changelog and this post you can read into it that the community is divided on scripts. Flayra has spoken to some degree now and told us there is no right/wrong answer to scripts it depends upon your mentality.

Whatever your opinion on scripting, I have to say that this thread has caused me to evaluate my keyboard set up. For which I give my thanks to Forlorn and a Civ amongst a few others.

Diablo_fx · January 2004

Guys why are you off-topic?
This should be about to make the perfect config, not a flame fight, move to off-topic(flame topic) if you want to flame.
For the config case, i recommend using an alien and a marine config.
An exsample you dont need "reload" when you are aliens, you could make it a bind you use often, eg. build OC(Offence chamber).

So now you ask how do i make a config for each race? That's what i am going to explain.

First you need to make 2 files, one called Alien.cfg and one called Marine.cfg place them into your NS folder.
Next you do is to setup how to change them, that <b>could</b> be done like this.
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>
bind "F1" "jointeamone;exec marine.cfg;echo Marine config loaded."
bind "F2" "jointeamtwo;exec alien.cfg;echo Alien config loaded."
</td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
place this in the configs you just made.(Alien.cfg and Marine.cfg)

Now explaining what the command does.

Bind is the command to bind a key to a command, eg. bind "x" "impulse 3"
This would make you drop your current weapon (Marine's only)
There would be no reason to have this bind for the Aliens.cfg so put it into the Marine.cfg

The next in the bind command is the key you want to bind eg. Bind "c" "+showscores"
This command would make c show the scores, this is usally binded to tab by defult.

Now the next is the actully command it self, there are tons of commands to use.(a start to learn is to look at your config.cfg in your NS folder)
eg. Bind "v" "impulse 100" would bind v to make your flashlight turn on/off.

Now lets look at the config changer bind again.
</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td><b>QUOTE</b> </td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'>
bind "F1" "jointeamone;exec marine.cfg;echo Marine config loaded."
bind "F2" "jointeamtwo;exec alien.cfg;echo Alien config loaded."
</td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>

This will bind F1 and F2 to change your config's. (If your F1 key makes a small yellow box open in the top window of the screen this means that you have to rename two .dll files in your valve folder. #Halflife-dir\valve\cl_dlls\ the files that isnt client.dll, rename them to something else(my is called 1 and 2, but you can also delete them)

Now jointeamone and jointeamtwo makes you join either Marines (one) or Aliens (two). But you could also make a bind for jointeamthree (spetectors)

The exec command orders halflife to execute the file writen after the exec command (in this case it is Aliens.cfg)
The Alien.cfg thats where you customized all your alien only binds.

The echo command makes half-life echo this to the console. (this is just a confirmation)

I hope this helps alot, remember that half-life is case sentive sometimes. (i dont know excacly when?)
-Diablo_FX

EDIT: For steam users (3.0bx) use NSP folder in your steam\steamaps\email\halflife\nsp
<span style='color:red'>Warning!</span> not all servers alow exec command.

Best Cfg!
