// not-fancy scrollwheel binds
alias firstgun slot1
alias secondgun slot2
alias firstpda slot4
alias secondpda slot5

alias togglewheel "bind mwheelup firstpda; bind mwheeldown secondpda"
alias untogglewheel "bind mwheelup firstgun; bind mwheeldown secondgun"

alias +melee "slot3;+attack"
alias -melee "-attack"
bind "mouse3" "+melee"

and then togglewheel and untogglewheel are fired and pressing and releasing shift via another alias that contains similar shit.

basically "up for primary down for secondary m3 for melee" with a modifier to make it select PDAs when I hold down shift.

i used the default scroll wheel binds up until a couple days ago where I got fed up with glitches (I have a death adder)

um, wasn't really looking for scroll wheel binds, but binds that allow you to switch weapons and are comfortable, w/ out using the scroll wheel... sorry for not explaining it very well.

I use mouse4 and mouse5, and q is melee.
scrollwheel is sh1t on M$ mice, so much so that I physically removed it

bind q "slot1"
bind e "slot2"
bind r "slot3"

use shift to call medic.

Q E F for slots 1 2 3, and i bound mouse3 to call for medic

q for slot1
e for slot2
right click slot3 for scout and soldier

I use the mousewheel to play spy on pubs, wheelup = disguise as enemy something, wheeldown = disguise as friendly something
classes disguised cycle through normal speed movement classes

I also use mwheelup to destroy and build sentry gun when playing gunslinger engi, achieve rage on HL lobbies

q slot 1
e slot 2
f slot 3
shift med

fucking quake

yea quake has 9+ weps for me its 1,2,3,4,q,e,r,f,m4,m5,c

this is from my cfg

i have the logitech g500, which has 3 button on its side right above the thumb. i use the setpoint software that came with the mouse to bind those side buttons to 1,2, and 3.

I don't understand how people can still use 1/2/3 for slot#. It's uncomfortable, and scroll wheel is dumb. QEF all day.

q=weapon 1
mouse2=weapon 2
#3=melee

this nigga knows whats up

also, R, C, T & G for games with more weapons, unless no autoreload

I have q switch between slot 1 and 2. And to switch to my melee I either use scroll wheel or 3. Its how Ive been playing for years so I stick with it

It depends on what games I play. Some games have certain abilities/mechanics that use up keys that I would typically use for weapon slot binds in other games. For example, CoD4 allows you to lean, but it's set to Q and E (lean honestly doesn't feel right on any other keys), but you only switch to 1 other weapon, so I have it on something like Mouse4/5.

On a game like RAGE where you end up equipping like 200 different items near endgame, I have to end up using keys like C, V, T, G, but I only bind those to the equips that I'll use the least. In that game, I'm even forced to bind 1/2/3, but I bind those to the equips I rarely use.

e for primary
q for secondary
scroll wheel click for melee, holding the scroll wheel in will take out my melee and autofire until I let go of it, which stops firing and switches to my previous weapon

scout pistol is right click

for engie my 1-4 keys will ready a building

for spy my e is revolver, q is knife, middle click hold takes out sapper and autofires until I let go, scrollwheel up selects a random disguise, scrollwheeldown selects my last disguise, 1-9 keys select each class disguise,F1-F9 select friendly disguises

wow am I the only person who uses numbers to switch weapons >:

m2 = lastinv

melee = 3

mousewheel down = slot2, up = slot1 (to reset lastinv)

any class with alt fire has it set to m2 and then I use mousewheel to switch weapon

sounds kind of complicated but it's not

right click and q bound to slot2
f for melee
1,2,3 bound to unbindall so i remember not to use them

guess im the only one who uses scroll wheel

1 2 3
r for lastweapon

q e r, primary secondary melee
f, medic
4 5, PDA slots
ctrl, crouch

All my class configs use aliases to change the crosshair settings and viewmodel settings of each individual weapon.

alias rocketlauncher "slot1;cl_crosshair_file crosshair1;cl_crosshair_scale 25;cl_crosshair_red 255;cl_crosshair_green 128;cl_crosshair_blue 192;r_drawviewmodel 0;viewmodel_fov 108;"

bind q rocketlauncher

I have one of those for each slot (primary, secondary, melee) for each class. I think for my rocket launcher I have a medium yellow cross without a dot. That way, I can see which weapon I have out at a glance based on the color/size of the crosshair. And melee weapons have a viewmodel whereas most others don't.

How do you bind q to slot 1+2 every time i try it does not work

Here's how I do it:

alias "weaponone" "slot1;MW1"
alias "weapontwo" "slot2;MW2"

bind 1 weaponone
bind 2 weapontwo
bind 3 slot3
bind 4 slot4
bind 5 slot5
bind q lastinv

alias Q1 "weapontwo"
alias Q2 "weaponone"
alias MW1 "bind q Q1"
alias MW2 "bind q Q2"

weaponone

I WAS JUST WONDERING THE SAME THING THANK YOU!
edit: Could I use the same kinda thing to switch between 1-3 with a different key?
(I main pyro so i wanna just be able to go degreaser-flare, degreaser-axe)

I just use bind "q" "slot2;slot1"

bind "q" "slot1"
bind "e" "slot2"
bind "f" "slot3"

#arenashooters

bind "MWHEELUP" "switch1"
bind "MWHEELDOWN" "switch2"
bind "Q" "switch1"
bind "F" "switch3"
bind "F1" "toggle1"
bind "F2" "toggle2"

alias "switch1" "check1; slot1; solly_primary_xhair; bind q switch2; bind f switch3;
alias "switch2" "check2; slot2; solly_secondary_xhair; bind q switch1; bind f switch3;"

alias "switch3" "r_drawviewmodel 1; slot3; solly_melee_xhair; bind f switch1; bind q switch1;"

alias toggle1 "alias check1 "r_drawviewmodel 1"; switch1; bind F1 toggle1a"
alias toggle2 "alias check2 "r_drawviewmodel 1"; switch2; bind F2 toggle2a"

alias toggle1a "alias check1 "r_drawviewmodel 0"; switch1; bind F1 toggle1"
alias toggle2a "alias check2 "r_drawviewmodel 0"; switch2; bind F2 toggle2"

alias check1 "r_drawviewmodel 1"
alias check2 "r_drawviewmodel 1"
switch1

alias "solly_primary_xhair" "solid_plus; teal; medium; viewmodel_fov 100"
alias "solly_secondary_xhair" "dot; purple; medium; viewmodel_fov 95"
alias "solly_melee_xhair" "plus_no_dot; green; medium; viewmodel_fov 95"

Made my own crosshair switcher because i did not like brossel or aron.

F1 turns primary on and off.
F2 turns secondary on and off.
F goes to melee and primary.
Q goes to primary and secondary.

I have E bound to switch between primary and secondary. 3 is my melee key. Q is medic call. For classes that have more than 3 weapons, I use the keys surrounding WASD.
