no, look at his binds and take a guess. not a lot of people are using his config, i'm sure of that :p

Ive seen 3 people on reddit claim to play with his config.

they don't, i've tried. they might've been using his graphic settings but his key setup is beyond weird.

the bottom line is, he didn't came up with those binds to play better, it's just the way he started back in the 90s and he never changed it.

WASD wasn't common back in the day, there were all kinds of setups but most settled around ring finger/+left middle/+up-down index/right mouse1/+attack. he didn't.

I can't speak for redditards, but after 10-15 minutes of trying his setup it's completely plausible that someone could use it. It's surprisingly intuitive, the only strange thing coming from wasd/esdf is +backing feels quite strange.

Just because you couldn't adapt to it, doesn't mean others can't.

btw, i got toxics and gophers (his brother) configs from eurocup 8 when they were beasting in tdm:

gopher:
bind x "+vstr zoomin zoomout"
bind z "+moveright"
bind CAPSLOCK "+speed"
bind ALT "+attack"
bind CTRL "+movedown"
bind SHIFT "+moveleft"
bind MOUSE1 "+forward"
bind MOUSE2 "+back"
bind SPACE "+moveup"

seta cg_fov "100"
seta sensitivity "5.5"
seta cl_mouseAccel "0"
seta m_pitch "-0.022"
seta m_yaw "0.022"

toxic:
bind c "+attack"
bind x "+moveright"
bind z "+moveleft"
bind CAPSLOCK "+speed"
bind CTRL "+movedown"
bind SHIFT "+zoom"
bind MOUSE1 "+forward"
bind MOUSE2 "+back"
bind SPACE "+moveup"

seta cg_fov "100"
seta sensitivity "4.5"
seta cl_mouseAccel "0"
seta m_pitch "-0.016"
seta m_yaw "0.022"

:)

afaik they used wmos on icemats, and crts obviously.

can you post what the rest of the bind setup was like, weapons and such

i'll see if i can upload the cfg packs i got, now needs admin approval ;)

btw, don't be confused: in the ec9 pack all ic players have reptile's config.

Well... almost :p

Those are misc files not images - should be working now

thank you! ;)

thanks

do you know if gopher used his thumb or his second finger for +attack

EVOL is an other person with a similar setup, I learnt to play with the setup but on a technical level it's pointless so I dropped it.

Im using the same cfg, just different binds.

fox' cfg forever and ever since 1983

When people say using XYZ player's config I'm assuming they're talking about the graphical settings, no one actually bothers with what controls/sens other ppl have right?

The main concept I got from tox cfg was having +attack binded to the keyboard. I have shift for +attack with lg/mg but the rest i fire on mouse1

did you find that putting the +attack on keyboard helps your aim?

I find that my lg tracking is less jerky by not firing on mouse1. But fire on mouse1 Kinda gives u lower sensitivity since you increase the pressure on the mouse, which in turn seems to help tracking.

Main concept is ability to do "+forward and +back" faster then normal wsad or qwes.

when i say toxics config i mean the controls

these are apparently partially coming from some older shooters back in the day: http://www.esreality.com/post/2699693/changin...pid2699710

Always assumed most people rebound keys, but tried to play on the pro mouse settings for a while (having adjusted dpi to match) and raised the value of /sensitivity later on until it was something they could actually cope with if they were struggling too much.

I tried toxics config, but im sticking with LakermaN's when it comes down to it.

I'm using a hybrid tox/stermy/k1llsen cfg.

I used toxic's cfg with binds for about a year. Before that I had tried WASD, ESDF and JKLM. It took me few days to adjust and about two weeks to feel really natural to me.
I noticed my hitscan aiming improved slightly because before my hand used to shake quite alot in fights and not pressing mouse helped with that. Also I felt comfortable moving in duels apart from rocket jumps that I had some problems with.
I'm not using those binds anymore because I'm currently not playing quake and the games I play don't really benefit from those sort of things.

what are you playing now?
