I tried to use WASD keys, but it was terribly uncomfortable for me, so I stayed at the arrow keys. My setting is almost the same as Rott's.

Also a lefty, I use 3 mousebuttons to switch weapons. I can either click or doubleclick those 3 buttons. One click gives me a weapon I normally need quickly in Onslaught (shock, flak, AVRIL), doubleclick gives me respectively lg, rocket, link. If I don't have the first weapon, the second one is selected. The assigning is a bit more complex: two aliases for each button. This is for the mouse4 button:

Code: Select all

Aliases[31]=(Command="Getweapon Xweapons.Sniperrifle | getweapon XWeapons.Shockrifle | set input mouse4 m42 | set input mouse5 m51 | set input mouse3 m31",Alias="m41")
Aliases[32]=(Command="getweapon XWeapons.Shockrifle | Getweapon Xweapons.Sniperrifle | set input mouse4 m41",Alias="m42")
Sooo what this does: clicking once on mouse4 button fires alias[31], which selects the shock. Then it changes mouse4 to alias[32], so if I click it again it selects lg. It also changes the input for the other two mouse buttons back to their first weapon (to reset the weapon order for those two mouse buttons). If the lg is selected, then mouse4 is changed back to alias[31], so If I click mouse4 again, shock is selected again.

Wow, you move useing the arrow keys?. If you're left handed, then that would make sense, but still.....

I use WASD for my movement and have 2 mouse buttons, for which i use to switch betweeen the LG and shock and then use Q for flak and V for rocket.

As I'm having to play on a laptop at the moment, I've bought one of these:



It saves me having to carry around a full size keyboard. But I'm still getting the hang of it at the moment. Not found an ideal combination of key settings yet and I keep getting killed trying to select the right weapon... :D
Play it safe, do what Droopy says..."Always double tap!"

Indeed. I do not need any more buttons than what I use now :)
WASD would give me some more flexibility yes, but the arrow keys are short wired in my brain since 2004 for this game :D
