I personally wouldn't bother.. it's more trouble than it's worth... just learn to quickswitch

CODE

bind <key> +qblink
alias +qblink "slot2; wait; +attack"
alias -qblink "-attack; slot1"

Though I'd agree it's better to find a client-side lastinv script and get used to that.

Client side? Wow that explains why lastinv is so buggy on pings of 150 or so. Anyone got a client side last inv?

You can't make client side lastinvs... They dont exist, this is due to every time you change weapons it's existance is checked on the server first.

I know people have made 'So called clientside lastinvs' but they're actually no different from lastinv itself.

It's quicker to press the 1/2/3/4 button than to use lastinv because of the lag issues.

If they had the same problem, everything would be equally laggy

it isn't

would be simpler to

CODE

alias +movegun "weapon_leap; weapon_blink; weapon_charge"
alias -movegun lastinv
bind mouse4 +movegun

starting from swipe you will be in blink mode only while +movegun in hit. the lag restraints still affect you, but it's not as pronounced as using wait states

the wait state is dependent on 2 things working out... 1) server side scripting allowances and 2) client side frame rate. as a result you'd either need between 4 and 16 (sometimes as many as 32) waits between calling the weapon and then using it. and waits have that annoying tendency to leave you vulnerable. You'd need to set fps_max and fps_modem to 20 or 30 to achieve it in 2 or 8 waits instead

select swipe, then select blink, blink where you wanna go, and hit Q (my q is binded to lastinv) which will switch you back to swipe

Bling.

Works off slots and the server verification was changed for 3.0 afaik so it works just fine and dandy (I use a 56k more often than my DSL lately and it's a lifesaver to be sure)

That lastinv script may still require some server side interaction but it is a hella lot faster than the regular lastinv.

That lastinv script is VERY useful, not only does it make it "client side", but it also gives you slot3 weapons with one button. One button, leap, stomp, umbra, metabolize, etc.
