[Thomas]

put my name in, copy all you wrote + paste in console i guess? still dont get it could u please explain exactly what to do????

[Smirre]

Put it in your config, not in console. Im sure somewhere on this site is explanation about config.

[Thomas]

i cant find anything how to open it

[miraro3]

Just use a basic text editor thomas

[Thomas]

heh????? i totally DONT get it ? ? ? im gettin' more embarassed :$

[Stumpel]

can you send it harald to thomas?

[Thomas]

.......ehm and maybe in dutch?

[miraro3]

I never edited my config for stuff like this so i can't REALLY help you with it, but they're telling you to do this:

Je moet dit in je config plaatsen:

bind <key> "vstr nameswitch"

set nameswitch "vstr nameswitch1"

set nameswitch1 "name <yourname>; set nameswitch vstr nameswitch2"

set nameswitch2 "name <yourname>; set nameswitch vstr nameswitch3"

set nameswitch3 "name <yourname>; set nameswitch vstr nameswitch1"

Ik denk dat je je config wel kan vinden? Het is een .cfg bestandje.

Om het te openen moet je gewoon rechtermuisklik > openen met... > en dan "kladblok" nemen

I'm not sure how to add the text, but i think you can just throw it in at the end of the config? Correct me if i'm wrong harald (or anyone else). Told you i never edit mine before.

i did it like this: computer -> C station (lokale schijf c) -> program files -> Wolfenstein ET -> etmain and than i clicked on "etconfig.cfg" and than i get a wordpad with binds and stuff.

can you guys tell me i did it right???

but thanks anyway for your help fr3ak is making a name cycle for me

[shockwave]

here i have a name change config for u :

put it in your etmain to change it open it in the progam: Word

save it as: name.cfg

everywhere u find <=TM=>Shockwave u can put your own name with own colors u can add more sentens on it as much u like.

on top u find to bind button u can change them to every button u like now the are , and .

1 is to scroll in your names other 1 is to set your name .

start config in console with: /exec name.cfg

name.txt

if u have questions i will hear it from u.

[miraro3]

I guess you did right.

[miraro3]

shockwave, u shocked me!

Just kidding, good job helping the guy.

[shockwave]

no problem only thing i cant fix is that every time you disconnect/connect you need to type in console /exec name.cfg dont know how to bind it that it start 1 time and keep working after disconnect/connect maybe someone knows and can add it here?

Shockwave

[Thomas]

fr3ak is already makin' one and i already gave him my names so.....

but thanks for your help really appriciate it

[shockwave]

ok no problem.

Shockwave

[Thomas]

ehm schockwave,

i tried yours (wanted to try if i can do it)

and everything was fine untill i wanted to change it

this happend when i pushed the ''name change'' button on my keyboard. (picture)

as you see it changed... at least i thought but it didnt in limbo menu and ''tab'' menu (hihi)

so what can i do?

[shockwave]

wel u made a list with names right? and u bind 2 keys,1 for scrolling in name list and 1 for name use.for example u made 5 names, u hit the key that u bind for scrolling in your names list 5 times then u get the 5 th name,after u hit the other bind key your name is set.

if u have 5 names in your cfg,everytime u hit the scroll bind key u see that name u entered in your cfg in your console so u know which name u get.

if u know what i mean if u dont i wil send u pm in dutch.

from that txt file he posted

bind / vstr Nick => let you choose your nick

bind . vstr setNick => changes your name

[Thomas]

ahh thanks (both) works fine

[shockwave]

no problem have fun with it,like virus says that's correct only 1 problem is that i dont know how to bind /exec name.cfg in the cfg so u dont need to type it every time u connect again or like to have another color name.

Shockwave

[Thomas]

yes and another problem is when i scrolled to the last name in my cycle i cant scroll back to the first. i have to type it again in console to go to the first name

[shockwave]

i know that's sucks a bit but it works
