Useful keybind

[Nova]

Was using a keybind this afternoon and (I think :p) Matey asked what it was. Here it is:

Y=Teamsay I'm using a %w at %l and have %h + %s and %a

This is for example shown as:
"I'm using a Rocket Launcher at Blue Minigun Room and have 100 Health + 50 Shield and 69 Adrenaline", or
"I'm using a Goliath at Red Base have 800 Health + 0 Shield and 69 Adrenaline"

(The % stuff only works in teamsay)

Another keybind I use:

X=Toggle bDuck
Z=duck

You guys know Z, you use it to crouch like usual. The only downside is that you need to hold the button for as long as you want to crouch. A mantarun can be an annoying experience then.
X here allows you to crouch by simply pressing the button. You'll keep crouching, even if you fall off a manta, get shot or even die. Afterwards, you're still crouching. ;) To stop crouching, press either X or Z again.

looks kool....but 1 thing......how do i get this to work? xD I'm kinda stupid when it comes to keybinds and stuff like that...i jus like to play :p

go into where your ut2004 folder is then go into your systems folder then click edit for the user.ini file and near the top there will be a list of all your keys on your keyboard find the one you wanna use like y or something and after the = put the code.

so when you find it do


ctrl=Teamsay I'm using a %w at %l and have %h + %s and %a</pre>

or whatever :)

If you need quickly return to base, you can use recall bind:

set input 6 suicideIt useful in CTF, vCTF and other gametypes with bases (exept jb) when you need to switch from attacking to defencive role.

Personally I use 6 and k keys for recall - me not usind numbers for weapon switch - only keys around e,s,d,f (my movement keys) :)

Another good keybind =)

I got suicide bound too, but then to my backspace. That way I don't accidentally hit it. ;)
