Yep, repeatedly.

Of course, it could be because my keyboard is different from the american ones. Those doesn't have Å, Ä and Ö for example. :/

I´ve some problems here with my cfg files. I hope you can help me out here.

I´ve one 'config.cfg' that looks like:


And have one 'config'_default.cfg' that looks like:


As you can see, the 'config.cfg' (created when I joined the game for the first time) don´t have the comands and binds listed one by one per line. I don´t know if it´s the problem but some binds in-game didn´t work.

For exemple: I´ve one bind that I typed on both configs (config.cfg and config_default.cfg) to use with 'L' key. In-game the 'L' key was used for other action (in this case, it was assigned to the FlashLight, I checked the keyboard options and the key to FlashLight was other).
Any ideia of what´s wrong here? Because I don´t know if I need to use both cfg files or only one.

One more thing:
I´ve this bind:
Code:
bind "L"		"say_team Team! I´m [ %c ] , with [ %h ] life, @ [ %l ] !!! "
But in-game its don´t work.

The next binds aren´t working too:

Code:
bind "kp_ins" "saveme; say_team Help! My  Life: %h"
bind "kp_del" "engyme; say_team Help! I´ve only: %a"

Thanks and sorry for my bad english.

I glanced through the thread and didn't see anything about this, but is there any way to send something to the chat box without having to do a say_team or a say? Sort of like echo (I think it was echo for Quake... been a LONG time)?

I'd like to preview classes in a disguise script I've got going before selecting what to disguise as.

It WAS echo. However, STEAM killed echo. Since STEAM came out, the echo command only shows in the console.

Ok, the binds (medic, armour) are now working (thanks for the tip about autoexec) but not the 'Flashlight' thing. It´s really weird, don´t know why my 'L' key is automatically assigned for this.

Well the OLD echo did not need developer mode enabled. Having Dev enabled drove me nuts in TFC because the messages were non-stop.

Pheeeeew.
This will make class-specific binds a LOT easier to make.

BTW, I haven't played FF yet.
I had to travel to get the USA Visa. Stayed in line for 4 hours.
I'll be back home tomorrow for some FF fragging.

The command you are looking for is toggleconsole, bind that manually to some key of your choice and I'd think it should work.

Yes - Spot on. Once a STEAM update took out echo, I changed my Engineer wrench alias to activate/deactivate developer mode. That let me see the contents of a dispenser w/o having to read dev code non-stop.

actually wanted to find that out, BUT whats cool about tools like mani is that you can use normal say commands to exec admin commands, like "@say hi my name is Bob McGee, what would you like on your burger."

but if you are refering to like normal rcon commands ya you can. I dont think you can custom make a message mode like you could with HL engine.

I hope this information helps, if you need me to elaborate then ask.

Map Specific Configs

Are map specific configs supported yet? I've got a few communication binds I'd like to be customisable per map. If they are already in, I'm probably missing a cvar or something, any ideas?

Great work on the mod guys.
