~ Experienced/Pro Config ~

[XashTheStampede]

I know some people like a change or a way to improve their overall performance in ET. I've developed a few unique ways of playing ET to the point where you can be way more versatile and improve as a player. This config will be difficult at the start but once you get use to it I guarantee you'll be twice the player you were before. I'll be posting screen shots and more parts of the config once I have time to explain certain sections and how they work for better understanding.

 

 

 

I'm gonna post in mutliple Post to slim down everything so it's not just one big mayhem of settings. For the first one I will be posting is my Binds.cfg file. Open up a Notepad and paste this into it and of course name it binds.cfg.

 

Basically your controls will be the default to move around such as ASDW to move. CTRL is your crouch. SHIFT is your sprint. Z Is your killout. and lastly X is your dreaded prone.

 

Keep in mind 1 = Knife 2 = Grenade while mouse wheel up = Syringe and mouse wheel down = Medic Packs (or accordingly with what class you are such as field ops Wheel up = Canister while wheel down = Ammo Packs) The logic behind this is being fast at switching between your essentials while being able to move freely with your left hand. Mouse TWO changes your smg to handgun or vice versa, handgun to smg. This is great for switching between your main weapons on the fly. I'm assuming you have a gaming mouse and you have side buttons you can bind your ALT attack to such as sniper scope and R-nade loader.

 

Additional notes: 8, 9, 0, -, and = are all keys that are related to your config in general.

8 Executes scripts.cfg

9 Executes binds.cfg

0 Executes autoexec.cfg (which is an automated cfg file that automatically executes all the cfg files. So all you have to do is push 0 in-game and you'll enable the whole config)

- Vid_restart (It's required to use vid_restart after executing new scripts and binds to fully use new config properties)

= Reconnect to server

 

Change FOV is also a cool script and you may notice you need to fill in the settings to your liking. You must enter your sensitivity you'd like to use for your mouse and the crosshair and color. I have it set to just the DOT in CYAN since it's a easy color to see over many maps.

This is the Scripts.cfg file. It has a few handy binds that are quite useful for both Trick Jumping and Straight up Fragging. Here's some explanations on the binds and why you should use them.

 

g Toggles on your main map, you must press G again to take it off your screen.

i Changes your FPS from 76 to 125 or vice versa.

o Changes your Hitsounds from Head only to both body and headshots.

p Turns on and off Pmove, great for trick jumping on the go.

j Changes your crosshair color on the go.

h Changes your Alt crosshair for example if you use a crosshair with an outer layer this will change it's colors only.

n Is your Name Selector, you can toggle through over 5 premade names of your liking.

m Stands for MAIN, it's your main name you want to go by such as your clan tag+name you'd use this while in your clans server for example.

 

I already have names in the name selector and the main name so you need to go in and manually change them to your liking.

The lovely CVARS.cfg Basically this part of the config will be altering everything you see in game. Right now I have a pretty decent computer and I can run at moderately higher settings and I randomly tweak this part of the config off and on to test things and see how certain settings affect visual aspects of the game.

 

You must go through this and find RESOLUTION and change the settings to the resolution you want to play ET in. Also you can easily identify the CONNECTION settings. You might have to change them around if your internet isn't on the fast side but most internet in todays standards can use the settings I already have provided.

Very important part of the config for full functionality and no problems inbetween. You must have this added into your ETmain folder with the rest of the cfg files you made. (VERY IMPORTANT! LOL)

 

You may notice a Class.cfg for a class changer. My class changer is ancient and doesn't really work well in most pubs therefore I probably wont even post it. But if someone knows of a new up to date class changer script be so kind and post it up for me.

 

 

paste the following into your new notepad named autoexec.cfg

 

exec cvars
exec class
exec binds
exec scripts

wow this looks nice im gonna try it sometime ty.

[SunLight]

weaponbank 7 when you press 3, and weaponbank 2 for mouse2 doesn't convince me much

[S3ti]

- it`s cg_simpleItems, not r_simpleitmes

- com_zoneMegs must be set through commandline before the config is parsed, else it will just stay latched

- com_hunkMegs greater than 192 is useless, ET will never use it

- as usual a bunch of non existing cvars from other Q3-engine games

 

The toggle scripts maybe gimmicky for those who are looking for something specific, but I really can't see what should make one a twice better player than without?

 

Changing fov permanently by script without changing your sensitivity accordingly will just make your aim unconstant.

 

Can you explain that reload script, why don't just use bind r "+reload"?

I think configs are a matter of personal preference after all

 

I played for a long time with a constant fov, then when I switched to double fov I had a lower sens with it. But since I toggled fov by holding shift (and releasing it, I had the high fov again) I got used to this so much that I started using it even during fights (I know, it's bad ), so eventually I realized that having only one sens leads to better results for me.

 

All the changes in my config I made (and make) never increased my skill anyway... I agree with you, when you say that no config makes you better, let alone twice as better

The simpleitems command i'd have to look up, but from what i remember this was designed for ETpro, and the simpleitems command works as R_ so not sure what's the difference. Enlighten me there if you would. XD

 

Yeah, I have a lot of info to go through. About the hunkmegs you sorta can and cannot use more. You must force it by typing it into the shortcut of ET.exe through properties. I just have it in the config for further completion.

 

Keep In mind I've been using this config for over 6-7ish years I'd say. So most of the redundant commands could be removed but they don't harm the game in anyway.

 

I don't understand your logic behind the changing fov? It's a script where you can press C to change to 90 FOV and it also removes your gun from your screen. This is a highly customizable script, I just like to use the same sensitivity for both FOVs. (HINTS you can change it to whatever you like) And if you didn't fully understand the script you just press C again to go back to normal roaming around FOV. You can alternate between the two freely.

 

To further complete the reason why this will improve your overall ET performance is the fact how versatile you'll be in-game. It's designed so you're never hung up on the same fingers while in the middle of a fire fight for example Crouching, changing to hand gun/smg/syringe/medpacks. You have all that in your arsenal just from your mouse alone. Therefore giving you full range of motion to dodge and strafe with your left hand. It's actually quite simple logic just some people may not understand it at first. This is why you'll be twice as better. After a week once you have a decent muscle memory of the new binds you'll be zooming through people like no problem! (Like i said this config may not be for everyone but it's definitely a CHANGE and Versatile way of playing)

*****I notice one error in the first post on Binds.cfg. Under mouse settings m_filter should be set to 0 not 1. I must of accidently changed it to 1 thinking it meant off when it really meant on. This is the smooth mouse setting and I wouldn't recommend having it on because it alters your mouse sensitivity and you never want that or mouse acceleration.

 

lol I can't edit my post for some reason so i'm just posting it below.

$ grep -l --include=*.{so,x86} -r -i simpleitems *

etpro/cgame.mp.i386.so

 

it's only in etpro, in et itself there is no cvar with the name 'simpleitems' in it, nor in any of the mods I have in my et folder.

 

To further complete the reason why this will improve your overall ET performance is the fact how versatile you'll be in-game. [cut] This is why you'll be twice as better.

Skill in ET = fighting (mostly aim, and a bit of movement). You can have the biggest brain in the world, and have tons of gamesense, but if you get annihilated in 1on1 then you can't do much.

 

I like the idea of packs and syringe binded to your mouse, in fact I've been using my mouse wheel for that since I made my first config, but you move weaponbank 7 closer to wasd?

7 is adrenaline, right? Aside from the fact that adrenaline is not pro you don't have to use it so often to justify that change, I just press 7. For a 'pro' config selfkill is much much more important than adrenaline (in fact I have selfkill binded to my mouse), again it's a matter of taste.

 

After comparing your cfg with mine, I noticed a couple of things you could change to clean your config up:

- b_levels_ cvars are etpro server cvars, and you have many other server-side cvars as well

- cl_pitchspeed and cl_yawspeed aren't allowed on etpro, and others are outside allowed range too.

 

- r_roundimagesdown is a 'toggle' kind of cvar, it can be 0 or 1 (off or on). 5 makes no sense.

- r_gldriver shouldn't be set by the user imho (on Linux it's not "opengl32", for example)

- snaps 40 makes no sense.

 

and there are many nonexisting cvars:

 

 

cg_draw3dicons

svg_healthstring

svg_timestring

sex

b_smallpopups

b_demo_noclip

Let me try to explain. Let's say you roam around the map with high fov (120) and use low fov (90) for shooting. If your fov lowers you will feel that your sensitivity gets higher. It does not really because your mouse travels the same amount of inches for a 360° turn but the amount of pixels travelled will change due to the distortion effect with higher fovs. Therefore you will percept your sensitivity higher the lower your fov gets and you would kinda have to adapt to both fovs.

 

An easy formula to calculate would be: sens / high fov * low fov = sens for low fov

In your case 2.75 / 100 * 90 = 2.475

 

You can get used to both of course and it's personal taste, but it will get harder and more unreliable the higher the fov difference is.

Sorry I have to explain in such detail for whatever reason.. the whole point of the C for changing FOV is for sniping against long distance enemies. It's not made for shooting people in general... that makes no sense at all. EXAMPLE: outside of Suppy Depot 2 you see an enemy far in the back of the open window which is hard to see in higher fov, simply press C zoom in and aim and fire. then press c again and continue the game normally. It's only a script to be use in certain circumstances.

 

And to the other guy 7 is LAND mine not adrenaline. Push 3 land mine, mouse wheel up Plyers. XD I feel theres quite a lot of trolls on here. I even mention before that some of the older commands that don't work anymore are fine and won't disrupt the game at all so no point in pointing out theres commands you can't use..

 

Snaps 40 makes no sense? it's just the highest integer you can use and with today standards in internet speed anyone should be able to use maxed out settings. **Server doesn't allow 40, okay... it changes it to 20 automatically for you.** It's a win win scenario and i don't see the problem with it? and i even mention above you can change these settings to your liking since it's  more of a preference setting.......... I can only dumb down these answers so much guys.

It doesn't matter why or when you use it. When you switch fov, you should switch sensitivity too if you want the same feeling in both fovs...assumed the guy you are shooting at is moving.

 

You like your config and put a lot of work in it. Good, then why don't just take some critics how to optimize and unify it for different mods + get it more cleaned up?

It makes no sense, then. It's like saying 'I use cg_fov 360, if I play in any etpro server it will be forced to 120 anyway, then I have also b_placebo 1337, anyway it gets ignored by the game' etc. etc.

 

I don't think I am a troll, but if you say: 'hey guys, here is a config that will make you pro', and there are mistakes and other junk in it, you will attract such nerdy responses for sure.
