Binds, Scripts, Tweaks & Commands

Scripts are a set of commands written in an interpreted language to automate certain application tasks, stored in a file for subsequent or repeated execution.

¤ Creating a script

• Create a new configuration file for storing the scripts. Open notepad or another text editor and save the file as autoexec.cfg. It is very important that the extension of the file is .cfg!
  
• Open your autoexec.cfg file and add stuff in it. Check above for scripts and tweaks that you can add.
  
• If your autoexec.cfg isn't loading, open the console and type /exec autoexec.cfg and it will load the file.
  
• For further tweaks, read the following guide on [url=http://www.wolfstuff.org/modules.php?name=Content&pa=showpage&pid=2">Connection Tweaking and Graphical Setup[/url] or use the Wolfstuff [url=">Congiguratiojn Builder[/url].
  

¤ Creating a bind

Code:

bind eg: bind "X" say "Hi!"

¤ Script commands
To create a script more complex than using just binds, you can also use the commands seta, set, vstr, echo and exec.

Code:

seta set echo exec Use // to make notes on the script. eg: //This is a note.

In set we can use vstr for switching the returned value:

Code:

set vstr eg: set z vstr x1 set x1 ; set z vstr x2 set x2 ; set z vstr x1

Check here to view the Enemy Territory console commands and cvars.

¤ Color commands

You can add colors to your text and nickname. Just use ^ followed by the number or letter of the color.
A basic example would be ^7=^1W^7=. This would look like =W= in the game.

Code:

^0 = Black ^1 = Red ^2 = Green ^3 = Yellow ^4 = Blue ^5 = Cyan ^6 = Pink ^7 = White ^8 = Orange ^9 = Grey ^a = Orange ^b = Turquoise ^c = Purple ^d = Light Blue ^e = Purple ^f = Light Blue ^g = Light Green ^h = Dark Green ^i = Dark Red ^j = Claret ^k = Brown ^l = Light Brown ^m = Olive ^n = Beige ^o = Beige ^p = Black ^q = Red ^r = Green ^s = Yellow ^t = Blue ^u = Cyan ^v = Pink ^w = White ^x = Orange ^y = Gray ^z = Orange ^/ = Beige ^* = Gray ^- = Olive ^+ = Foxy Red ^? = Dark Brown ^@ = Brown

Clans and Communities
Wolfstuff.org is an international game resource and community site.

¤ Clans

Most gamers organize themselves into small groups of like-minded players in order to play together and socialize.
Typically, these groups start suddenly, contain a handful of members, focus on a single game and have a short life span.
There are literally hundreds of these clans or guilds in each online game.

¤ Communities
Some gamers are organized less formally in communities, which may also contain clans or guilds.
Often these communities include websites generating a fair amount of news and active forums to give the members their sense of community.
