Title: Help on Macroing...
Post by: skwurul on April 25, 2006, 12:49:45 AM

I have absolutely no idea how to macro things (like the colored 'NICE SHOT' messages people usually put up). Can someone please tell me how?

Code: [Select]

bind <key> <message>
For the message:
- type 'menu setup_funname' into the console
- enter your prefered message (like 'Nice Sh000t')
- go to your config.cfg
- search for 'seta name'
- copy the name
- make a bind with the message (the colored name)

or a little easyer possibility:

like on bit's instruction:
- type 'menu setup_funname' into the console
- enter your prefered message (like 'Nice Sh000t')

then:
- type: 'bind a $name'
-> a will be the name u set, here 'Nice Sh000t'. if u change now back your name, a is still the same

Personally, I don't like bound text, even when it's used as a complement.  It feels so impersonal.  If I hit somebody, and he says, "ns", it's more personal, even though it's just 2 letters.  I know he took the time to type it.  If he says something like "***NiCe SHoT!!!***" then it's just a generic message that everybody gets when they kill him.  He just presses a key and that's it.  Sometimes it's even annoying.

Just something to think about.
