TF2 Scripting Tutorial
You may learn here basics of scripting in TF2.
For editing CFG files I recommend using:
All things mentioned here should be saved in your user config.
How you can make your own config? Where it should be placed?
Your TF2 cfg folder where you put all your configs should be located in:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\%accountame%\team fortress 2\tf\cfg
C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\steamapps\%accountame%\team fortress 2\tf\cfg
Where %accountname% is your Steam login.
To save your config as a cfg file when you are saving file pick from file type dropdown All files (*.*), but when you are using this method you need to type file name and extension. For exapmle myconfig.cfg
Now open autoexec.cfg
and add a line
exec configname
where configname is name of config that you have chosen recently.
In your CFG folder you can find configs with class names in titles, they are executed every time you select that class.
Numpad key names:
Code:
"KP_MINUS" Minus "KP_PLUS" Plus "KP_Enter" Enter "KP_DEL" , "KP_INS" 0 "KP_END" 1 "KP_DOWNARROW" 2 "KP_PGDN" 3 "KP_LEFTARROW" 4 "KP_5" 5 "KP_RIGHTARROW" 6 "KP_HOME" 7 "KP_UPARROW" 8 "KP_PGUP" 9 "KP_SLASH" / "KP_MULTIPLY" *
Binding is basically assigning commands to keys
Code:
bind "key" "command"
Code:
bind "key" "command; command; command"
Code:
bind "key" "taunt; wait 30; explode"
That command allows you cycle between specified values on chosen range.
Code:
bind "key" "incrementvar command 1 12 3
Example №1: You want to change sensitivity from one to twenty with 2 points jump.
Code:
bind "key" "incrementvar sensitivity 1 20 2"
Code:
bind "key" "incrementvar net_graphpos 1 3 1"
Alias command allows you to shorten very long commands into one short alias.
Code:
alias nameofyourscript "firstalias" alias firstalias "command; command; alias nameofyourscript secondalias" alias secondalias "command; command; alias nameofyourscript thirdalias" alias thirdalias "command; alias nameofyourscript firstalias" //last alias should point to first one
Example №1: Lets say that we want a name changing script.
Code:
alias namescr "firstname" alias firstname "setinfo name "First_name"; alias namescr secondname" alias secondname "setinfo name "Second_name"; alias namescr thirdname" alias thirdname "setinfo name "Third-name"; alias namescr firstname" bind "key" namescr
Example №2: Duck script. Second example will be a duck script that will allow you to duck without holding a key.
Code:
alias duck "duckON" alias duckON "+duck; alias duck duckOFF" alias duckOFF "-duck; alias duck duckON" bind "key" "duck"
Code:
alias configsw "yourconfig" alias yourconfig "exec yourconfig; developer 1; echo Yourconfig.cfg; wait 250; developer 0; alias configsw friendconfig" alias friendconfig "exec friendconfig; developer 1; echo Friendconfig.cfg; wait 250; developer 0; alias configsw yourconfig" bind "key" "configsw"
+ and - commands
Plus and Minus commands are commands that have 2 states.
Plus part is executed when you press a key and it's execute until key is released. When key is released it goes into minus state.
Example:
Code:
bind "mouse1" "+attack"
You aren't limited to commands that developers created. You can create your own using alias command.
Code:
alias +minigun "+duck; +attack" alias -minigun "-attack; -duck" bind "key" "+minigun"
Pyro loadout binds

Heavy loadout binds
Equip command doesn't exist since 2009-02-17.
Medic loadout binds
Equip command doesn't exist since 2009-02-17.
Engineer buildables binds
Paste this into Engineer.cfg
Code:
echo **Execing Engineer Config** bind "KP_ENTER" "build 3" //Builds Sentry bind "KP_PGDN" "build 0" //Builds Dispenser bind "KP_DOWNARROW" "build 1" //Builds Teleport Entrance bind "KP_END" "build 2" //Builds Teleport Exit bind "KP_PLUS" "destroy 3" //Destroy Sentry bind "KP_RIGHTARROW" "destroy 0" //Destroy Dispenser bind "KP_5" "destroy 1" //Destroy Teleport Entrance bind "KP_LEFTARROW" "destroy 2" //Destroy Teleport Exit
Code:
alias disg "primaryweapon" alias primaryweapon "slot1;lastdisguise;alias disg secondaryweapon" alias secondaryweapon "slot2;lastdisguise;alias disg meleeweapon" alias meleeweapon "slot3;lastdisguise;alias disg primaryweapon" bind "b" "disg"
You got lagged or you alt-tabbed out of game and you got a visual problems?
That is fix for misplaced items, players holding wrong weapons, invisible players, missing cart indicator and wrong team color models(Blue medic with red needle gun)
Code:
bind "home" "record fix; stop"
Admin is playing annoying music and you don't want to disable sounds downloading?
Use that bind to stop music:
Code:
bind "key" "play common/null"
