What exactly does hud fastswitch 1 do?

If you press 1,2,3,4 (or any key bound to slot1/2/3/4) then it changes you to that weapon without needing you to click again. If you turn it off then try and swap weapon you can see the diffrence

tis excellent for fading when going from blink to swipe etc, and for most things tbh

Well what do you put in console for that

hud_fastswitch 1

On, no need to click.

hud_fastswitch 0

Off, need to hit button then click.

typing hud_fastswitch in the console should save permantly without needed to tweak configs. I know it work that way for me.

Now... if only the dev could apply this feature to invnext and invprev like DoD does... that would be great

You can also go to the options menu and then hit "advanced" and you should be able to find fast switch

But beware of Slot 4 when you have fastswitch on. In case you have 2 weapons there (for example grenade and welder) your weapon selection gets "stuck" there until you press fire.

Example:
You have grenade and welder. You press '4' and you see the normal weapon list opening at the top of your screen. If you now try to change to slot 1, 2 or 3, nothing happens before you have selected one of the slot 4 weapons.

Imho the next weapon in the slot should just be selected without having to press fire.

Ehmm, u guys are talking about pressing a button..

But is it possible to just use mousewheel and it change when u scroll down?

coz it didnt work with meh, but it would be very usefull....

hud_fastswitch should work for your mousewheel too...

nah, hud_fastswitch dosn't effect your mwheel

you have to get the right binds for that

there are 2 ways to scroll through weapons, one is invnext/prev and the other is via impulses.

just look at your configs and figgure out the correct one.

/me is to tired/hungry to do the work

My thing is skrewd up...i have fastswitch on...i use mousewheel to switch weapons but:
when i do nextweapon it does fastswitch, when i do prevweapon it uses the menu thingey


I got used to it tho...i just use my numpad keys 2 switch gunz now...(ise use arrows 4 movement)

hud_fastswitch is great, but I love lastinv much better, it allows me to press 1 button constantly and change weapons instead of having to worry about two, and its much closer to my hand, thats just me though...

meh, I never could use lastinv as well as i could use fastswitch, esp. when fading

Yea, I guess I just like lastinv more cause Ive been using it for 4 years in halflife games.

start a game of ns

type: bind mwheelup

look at what it is bound to

type bind mwheeldown

look at what it is bound to

the one that looks like lastinv or previnv or nextinv or something is the style you want. make a similar bind for the other mwheel direction.

it aint that hard, just figgure it out.
