Edit: Binds

[Kitten]

Some binds I have been playing with and yes I got the one fixed so now I have nades and the bind still works. You can add these to your config to find the config go to C:/Program Files/Steam/steamapps/your name/day of defeat/dod the file name is config open it in notepad or it wont work.

bind "5" "slot5 primming nade;say_team primming nade %l run;slot5"

bind "h" "dropammo;say_team dropammo near %l here you go"

bind "p" "say_team I'm near %l with %h! I need back up"

bind "l" "say_team I'm on your six %i! look out and stay low"

bind "[" "voice_enable 0" = turns all voice chat off

bind "]" "voice_enable 1" = turns voice chat back on at the next map change

bind "P" "stopsound" = so you don't have to keep typing it in your counsol ~

bind "=" "hud_fastswitch 1" = some servers turn this off

bind "F3" "nextmap" = shows the next map

bind "F2" "say /bar"

bind "F6" "throw_light"

bind "F7" "throw_smoke"

bind "F8" "throw_rock"

*Please note that if you don't add the ;slot5 behind the bind it won't work and you will have no nades!

this site is very helpful so I thought I would update/edit this post. http://www.lamsey.co.uk/dodbinds.htm

Also when u change ur config.cfg file it would be a good idea to set it to READ ONLY in the properties setting for the file. What does this do and why should i? It will protect your config in the case of joining steam and then a server so it doesn't get overwritten, also if it works in our server but u decide u want to go to another server again it will protect ur config from being over written.


Set it to 777, read only.

I've gone into servers that have deleted all my binds.

I've never been able to figure out why the creators of Half Life gave such unmitigated power to the servers/hosts. They may have created a slick engine but there are places where it is not logical to give admins control.

Evil Kick is a perfect example. Just why?

I also don't like the weapons and movement netcode, they could be better. If you want to see absolute perfection when it comes to weapons and movement netcode try out Tribes: Vengeance. Nothing more elegant and smooth. I still love DoD none-the-less.

And besides it could be worse. It could be AVP2... (I used to admin an AvP2 server). That game was a nightmare for lack of admin controls and uber shitty netcode. You're looking at a base of 50 ping on a 1 gigabit *LAN* with a dedicated server.

So you can specify in the config file whether or not you want to give the server permission to edit it?

More on permissions, incase you care:

what do you mena 777?

Think multi-user operating system. These codes represent permissions.
0 - No permission
1 - Ability to execute a file (a program)
2 - Ability to write to a file (save)
4 - Ability to read a file

1 + 2 + 4 = 7, Read + Write + Execute permission

7 - Owner (whoever owns the file)
7 - Group (permission given to the group the user belongs to, eg: admins)
7 - Other  (Everyone else)

777 - Give the ability to everyone to do everything

[chickensniper]

lmao yeah nice to see you to sturm but just wait till we meet on the server...........ill show you the pointy end bucko lmao

[SturmTiger]

buck-a-rooooo lol

[Triple X]

On The config.cfg file thing...i dont see the areas specified to place the 777. is it the config file within DOD folder?

[SturmTiger]

Can you bind two things to the same key ? i thought it would override the first bide when you made the 2nd.

[Katie]

Well you can put a comma between the two commands on one key, but it always gets touchy due to quotes.

Bind "q" "say Burn!!", "amx_fire_flamethrower"
That should work, but it won't work in the other way. Some commands have to go before others for some reason.

Bind "j" "voice_enable 0","stopsound"

[PhantomLlama]

oooooooooooooohhhhhhhhh That's how you add multiple commands to a single bind..... Eeeexxcellent

[Katie]

I'm pretty sure. Those commas could be semicolons but I can't really remember anyway.

[PhantomLlama]

no, semicolons start a new command line

All of you old farts need to come play in the server more, I have seen spawn or muffin in the server in like 10 years and new jerks probably dont know you!!!! GTFOff the pron and play!!!!
