*** Request to ET:QWs Developers ***

(bioshake) #1

My request is simple so please do not overlook it. It looks like the retail version of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars has already shipped and as of the demo there is still no option to make crouch a toggleable button.

Please please please please do not ship this game that I have been waiting for over 2 years for without a basic FPS option that I cannot live without. Prone is a toggle, why not crouch? Or why not let us change it ourselves using the config file or a GUI.

Thanks for making such a great game guys. If it doesn’t ship with this option, please include it in the first patch. I know while some people do not use it many others will.

Thanks!

Toggles
Any command that can be set to either on or off, can be set up on a toggle. For example, you can set Always Run to either on (1) or off (0), therefore I can create a toggle that lets me switch between always on or always off. This has a couple of advantages:

In the case of the +speed (run) command, I don’t have to hold down my SHIFT key to run or walk. If I want to sneak up on someone, I can hit the toggle to walk, and then hit it again when I want to resume running.
This set up conserves keys. Instead of one button set to enable always run and another to disable it, I can consolidate everything to one key.

The syntax is:
bind [key] “toggle [command]”
Here are a couple of examples that I use in my autoexec.cfg
bind SHIFT “toggle ui_showgun” //Toggles whether the gun model is drawn or not
bind F3 “toggle com_showFPS” //Displays Frames per Second
bind F4 “toggle g_showwaypoints” //Displays waypoints or turns them off
bind F5 “toggle g_rotatecommandmap” //Enables or disables command map rotation
Look through your configuration for variables that take either a 0 or 1 value. Those are the commands that can be set up on a toggle.

@rudi and snoofer

Why answer when you don’t know the answer :confused:

ET:QW binds don’t work like ET binds, so you cannot do bind x +movedown, and toggle only works on cvars, not commands, so you cant do toggle _movedown.
