Automatic weapon+fire binding
Madbringer: I've seen myself how much they can affect one's gameplay.
for the worse
more switching = more spam = less control = less kills = worse game
and just pray to god friendly fire isnt on
about the script, you wave to implement a wait command after the switch wich is in same ammount as server switch time.
on plus.cfg thats 90 (2!S servers), on nh.cfg its 100 (a lot of private 1v1 servers) and on e5 cfg its 0. dont know about bro-xp.cfg
my advice is, dont fall in the common practice of spamming. you wont collect more frags, in 1v1 you will outright get butchered, and you will develop skill real real slow.
Dudes, use whatever you may. Wanna bind keys to yer super duper scripts? Go ahead. I say fuck scripts. Just my opinion. I personally saw a very well known player of this community use scripts on 2!sweet ftag some days ago. And, true, he had less control, but still scored lots of frags with the sheer force of spam, and i can't begin to describe how fucking annoying that was. So there. Flame me if you want, but i won't change my opinion, WEAPON CHANGE SCRIPTS ARE FOR LAMERS.
I hate this permanent generalisation. I use also weaponscripts (weapons are separately bound), they change, the sens and the crosshair and the fov:)
For example a Rail with fov 130, sens 7 and crosshairsize 12 and a rail with fov 40, sens 2, crosshairsize 24:)
hunt me, hunt me
Since that the Switch- and Relaodtime can can't be bypassed anymore since 1.03, scripts do not worry me anymore.
Mad, how you can know whether the player had a script?
Because he told me, lol. And because he was switching the weapons so fast sometimes i hardly could tell between which ones he was switching.
Bah, ok, switch scripts are great. Everyone use them. Hold on, i'll install my aimbot and we all can have tea and cookies
Btw, you hate generalisation? And i hate scripts. I guess that makes us even.
And one more thing, i think that a resourceful and skilled person will be able to utilize the advantages of such scripts. There's not a lot of ppl that could do it, but that person i've talked about earlier did use the script with much success.
Mad, what mowly mentions is, not all scripts are bad or "lame"
And about those spam scripts, they might work on public, but when it gets to friendly fire on wars... boy i can tell you storries
some people i know had over 20 team kills, just cause of spam and/or scripts... thats -40 score for them and their team...
Actually, that's -20
Call me a traditionalist. I just prefer to depend on good old skill, rather then various neat tricks and stuff. Hum, maybe that's why i never will be such a good player, like say, mowly. Maybe i SHOULD use "various neat tricks". But i won't. Because i despise them. And that's all.
I'll agree that with friendly fire it's useless, but most public servers don't have friendly fire on (if any have, at all). And ofc this is the feeding ground for scriptorz. But whatever, i've voiced my opinion. I'm aware that now i'll be called a noob etc behind my back and straight in my face, but i can't really care.
Good luck with your scripts, guys.
scripts are more a burden than anything else on E+.they screw up gameplay ,and block improvement.
i wouldnt say it is lamer to use them , i would say it is noobish or just not smart.any player who starts using them , will remove them in the long run.
so, yes, it is about generalisation.
each bind is a scriipt, so everybody is a lamer
and i dont c a bad point to have a rail with fov 130 and a rail with fov 50. both are bound on different keys, like each weapon has its own key on my config.
maybe u also want to hunt my sound script, which allows me to rise and lower sound ingame, rofl.
call the scripts with names like multiple-weapon script or whatever, but dont speak about scripts in generall dude. that gives a bad reputation.
oh, btw, i cheat u all with a script, that restarts server automaticly if server crashed or something worse happend ot it.
buuuh, i am evil....
let us be more precise. scripts are a string of commands allowed by q3.not cheats. i think we shouldnt talk about scripts in general , but we should talk about every script in particular...on my previous post i thought about rocket jump script or 180° turn for example
