How do I set my default spawn weapon for a specific class?

[KubeDawg]

I typed cl_spawnslot Slot 3 in my engineer.cfg file, saved it, loaded the game, didn't work. How do I do this? I don't need any scripts that make me do extra stuff, I just want this thing to work, and it's not.

Is there a file I have to add exec engineer.cfg to or do I have to type it in console every single time I load FF?

cl_spawnslot 3

You've got an extra "slot" in there.

that's not right...it's cl_spawnweapon_class "weapon"

cl_spawnweapon_civilian                  : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Civilian.
cl_spawnweapon_demoman                   : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Demo-man spawn.
cl_spawnweapon_engineer                  : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Engineer.
cl_spawnweapon_hwguy                     : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on HwGuy.
cl_spawnweapon_medic                     : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Medic.
cl_spawnweapon_pyro                      : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Pyro.
cl_spawnweapon_scout                     : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Scout spawn.
cl_spawnweapon_sniper                    : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Sniper spawn.
cl_spawnweapon_soldier                   : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Soldier spawn.
cl_spawnweapon_spy                       : 0        : , "a", "sv", "user" : Default weapon on Spy.

so for engy to have super shotgun on spawn it would be:

cl_spawnweapon_engineer "supershotgun"

I though it was the way you posted too for a long time, but I figured out through doing the wiki that it's not.

I took the liberty of assuming he had the command (which I've never used) correct and just fucked up the value. Oh well, can't win 'em all.
