Weapon Autoswitching

[old.Da_TOAST]

Rhumour has it there is a console command that lets you switch weapons with the mousewheel without having to click to choose the weapon. Does anybody know what this command is? It's a pain in the ass having to scroll to the weapon, click on it, then shoot. Can somebody help me out?

Thanks

You mean its a console command?? hmm well blow me down lol

i always had a mouse with a Wheel and not once had to set it in the console it was just automatic lol... and it uses standard windows drivers lol

 

[old.Da_TOAST]

what i really mean

i mean, when i turn the mousewheel, i want it to go DIRECTLY to the weapon, without me having to click when the gun i want is highlighted. This feature is automatic in q3 and relative games. Any idea how to get this to work for HL, thru console or any other way?????????

What Dolly said is what you want. That gets rid of the stupid `slots' that the HL engine uses.

Tbh, you'd be better not to use trhe Mouse Wheel for weaps. It's a bad habbit to get into, especially if you play other games. When i see people playing Clan Arena, and scrolling through all the weapons to select the railgun, it's almost painful.

For DM games, i have mouse4 as the rox, and mouse5 as the rail, with the first 3 number keys, and `c' and `v' for the other weapons.

Nice

Thanks itchy...... ur a god It works great!

 

[Insane]

my scripts slightly wierd

mwheelup is bound to bring out my main weapon (rifle, sub-machine gun, etc) and mwheeldown is bound to the pistol.
Mouse button 4 is for knife, and mouse button 5 is for grenades.

of course atm i cant remember which slot is which *cringe* but its a simple alias

alias primary "slot1;wait;+attack;wait;-attack"

then you just bind it to whatever key you want

Next time, bind mouswheel to fire and choose dual elites. Cheap mp5 anyone?

You may know some kickass console commands itchy, but hell, you got BAD taste in guns!

Famed for it mate. Semi-auto sniper anyone?

Just think about what that mousewheel trick. How fast do you think you can turn it?

ItchY: That's cheating in many people's eyes

I used to use the Elites, using Mouse1, and i used to fire them very quickly

A lot of things people think are cheating. I don't think that one counts, since you can't stop laughing while you do it.
