would be nice to change the weapen from the left to the right hand to more easily shoot while crouched behind barrels and stuff.
-
You can write a script that will do that.
The best place to learn to write scripts is probably www.planetquake.com/console

Hmmm... I followed that link... that guy is good at typing his name... that's about it. I didn't look at every autoexec.cfg he wrote but most didn't have much if any to look at in them. I was expecting to see something more like: http://www.planetquake.com/capthebind/alias.htm
I think pinobot is requesting that weapon hand changing be added in the setup menu. Until that happens I'll repeat the alias which I use:
bind x "change2"
alias change2 "hand 2;bind x change0"
alias change1 "hand 3;bind x change2"
alias change0 "hand 1;bind x change1"
-
Thanks for the link.
Never done this before but i found it.
bind CTRL hand 1
bind KP_INS hand 0
bind END hand 2
:)

bind leftarrow "+moveleft;hand 1"
bind rightarrow "+moveright;hand 0"
;D

Now that's just a bad idea.
-
Chang hands via menu....hmmmm now thats newb friendly.!!!!!
DO IT...!! DO IT...!!!
-
Loial, just learn the meddling console commands.
-
HAHAHA muhahaha!!

WHy should I? Its not fair to others who dont know how or dont know the advantage of usign this. Is that what you want a group of players that know and a group of players that dont know? Most games give you a slight lean and now that Jitspoe has kindly mentioned that there is such a thing, Logical speaking, for the sake of players that dont know the console cmds (or refuse to learn them) it would be kind of the devolper to have them in the game menu as much as possiable, something you need to think about.
From a players point-of-view (not just this game) console binding sucks. THEY meddling SUCK!!!
That is alll. :)
-
console binding doesn't suck. It rules. You people and your newb-ness.

GJ EIO
Thank you, for making my point for me and completely ignoreing my point, thus making my point stonger all at the same time.
WHAT!?!?!? lol
Ah but who cares :)
Its not as if someone is going to read this, that cares about fairness in this game and post a postive responce.
-
Handedness is an option in the menu. Putting options for hundreds of different configurations, aliases, and whatnot will just make it a convoluted mess, not newbie friendly.
-
Thanks.
Being able to lean (change hands) and fire while Crouching,walking and or running is a convoluted mess?
Not newbie friendly?
Think on this,
Imagine the newb binding via an ez 2 use gui intferace, rather than manually typeing commands and then binding them. Which is less newb friendly? To me its the ez to use interface..... again your not giving the average user a chance against Bob, Uni and even Ganja, People that have earned my scorn and respect.
Remeber the knocks about this being a instagib-hyperblaster q2 mod. That pissed me off!
No revelence, but true.
OUT!!!

When I want to do this I just hold the shoot button and press the appropriate button(crouch, walk, run, jump). I know using two buttons at once(aka multi-tasking) takes some practice, but once you get your head around it, it gets simpler.

Loial- YOU DO NOT GET BETTER BECAUSE OF USER INTERFACE. JUSE USE CONSOLE COMMANDS.
How many times will I have to talk to you in caps lock about this?

I UNDERSTAND YOU. What I dont understand is why there is not a menu option to help newbs and me ;)
-
Because, as jits said, that would make the menu too cluttered and confusing.
-
No more so than having a 100 + comands to bind and combind manually? That make no sense.
-
100+? I have ...
Counting.
Counting..
Counting...
Done!
... around 20, and I do fine. Also, I actively use toggle alises (throw an impact/timed) and manual console commands.
Loial, you're the only one complaining about this. There's nothing wrong.
-
I am the only one that ever wanted menu options, ever anywhere?
-
so ur saying 20 more menu options is more confusing as remembering them. Hmmm. OK....
-
It's certainly faster. And they're not so much options as actions. Like moving, shooting, tossing, talking, etc.
-
It's certainly faster.
How so , if they are binded via menu or otherwise.
-
Wha? I bind by pulling down the console and typing "bind (bleh) (bleh)"
Loial, stop complaining about this. Youre the ONLY ONE!
-
You completly ignored my point. But its ok. I can help.....
1. Menu interface is user friendly.
2. Menu interface is user friendly.
3. Menu interface is user friendly.
Despite what you call convulted is alot more "user friendly" to vets of other fps rather than having to remember how many different cmds on how many different games. Imagine jitspoe started off with a new engine that required 100% new commands, what would be easier for you to use? With out a hard copy, how long would it take you to remember all these cmds and the double binds cmds vs using a menu interface.....BLAH!!!!! I know I am the only one, just think on how stupid I feel , but yet here I am stickign up for logic fairness, yet again I have to much ZEAL!!!!! sorry
-
If there was a new engine? I would learn the new ones that I needed. Like I did for this game. Get over it.
