You could easily achieve this in source/1.6 engine with cl_incrementvar 1 1 0, not sure how to pull together the code in ql since there's no if command.


Would you mind posting the messy czm code?

It has TONS of vstrs, so I guess a link to the *.cfg would be better.

http://trance.gg/Quake-demos/DHS11/configs/

bind F "weapon 6; bind F +zoom"
set reset "bind f vstr lg"
set lg "weapon 6; bind F +zoom"

bind G "vstr reset; weapon 7"
and the same for every other weapon because you will need to reset each time you switch weapons...

Note that this is the simplest way I can think of doing this, but others may have better ideas. If however you want to do this for more than 1 weapon it will get VERY messy.

You will probably need cg_switchOnEmpty 1 to avoid some confusing moments in game. Also the above is for cg_zoomToggle 0 if you want cg_zoomToggle 1 or just want to use cg_fov then again it will get a little more complicated, but I think I can do that for you if you need it or if someone else doesn't have a better tidier way of doing it...

I don't really understand the set reset-part. Why bind f vstr lg?
Why "bind F"-part needed again, why not bind F "weapon 6; +zoom". And if I press "F" again, will it change back to normal fov and settings? If there's no -zoom, won't it be left zoomed in?

It's a bit confusing.

In order to make this bind re-usable an infinity number of times, you need a vstr script resetting it back to its original stage, thus deeming it re-usable))

Without the 2nd Bind F you will just switch straight to LG in zoomed mode rahter than switching to lg then being able to zoom on the 2nd press of F....

Also like I said this is for cg_zoomtoggle 0, so you will need to keep your finger on the F button for zooming, in order to avoid being stuck in zoom if you switch weapn without first releasing F, then you should edit all the other weapn binds like this:

bind G "vstr reset; weapon 7; -zoom"

Without testing I think that should work fine...

it has to be reset or your fov will become fucked...

^ this

Wanted to dig up some old CFGs where I had this but this pretty much it.

A simpler way would be to set each weapon bind with additional info like zees:

bind MWHEELUP "weapon 6; cg_drawgun 1; cg_fov 100"

but then every weapon would need to have the fov extension to change it back + you can't fire off zoom into the sunset.

A good combination would be an additional zoom key configured with FOVs + each weapon having an individual info on what the default cg_fov is.

My weapon binds currently look like this:

bind MWHEELUP "vstr pummel"
bind MWHEELDOWN "vstr mgun"
bind r "vstr shotgun"
bind e "vstr nade"
bind c "vstr rocket"
bind f "vstr shaft"

bind v "vstr bfg"
bind F2 "vstr nailgun"

bind F1 "vstr chaingun"

Ok I think this is what you are looking for:

bind F "weapon 6; bind F vstr lg2"
set lg2 "cg_fov 90; bind F vstr lg1"
set lg1 "weapon 6; cg_fov 100; bind F vstr lg2"
set reset "cg_fov 100; bind F vstr lg1"
bind G "vstr reset; weapon 7"

Let me know if that works for you :D

Thx, I'm gonna try it. It will be nice to implement it into the stuff mentioned above. : D

Ok - good luck and lol @ model switch for lg above - never seen that before... interesting haha. But if it works for you :D

Works really well. You only need to switch to lg and to any other weapon once before the match starts, because the first time you change the model, there's a little lag - no lags on further switches though.

If you give all the fovs you need I may look into this. It's pretty similar to the zoom script I use.
You could also try to google first for lofwyr's cfg, he had exactly this functionality set in it. Not sure if there is anything that could go wrong with the vstr mess he used though.

aside from how swarm implemented it (which it looks like it'd work) why dont you try setting a toggle zoom instead?

for instance i have my mousewheelup zoomfov 50 then mousewheeldown zoomfov 90 in which i use it for both rail and lg.

//ZOOM
bind MWHEELDOWN "vstr resetzoom"
bind MWHEELUP "cg_zoomfov 50;cg_fov 90"
seta resetzoom "cg_zoomfov 90;cg_fov 95"

(i use +zoom)

how i keep eash weapon his fov
mean whene i change weapon fov change
help plz ?

- learn to read config
- don't just use configs from other people without understanding them
- learn how to use config and commands

algerian man dating your sister? relax.. haha

this is really simple, just add the fov command to every weapon bind..

bind x "weapon 1 ; cg_fov 130"
bind x "weapon 2 ; cg_fov 140"
bind x "weapon 3 ; cg_fov 90"
bind x "weapon 4 ; cg_fov 100"

and so on....

esc -> game settings -> weapon config

add cg_fov x to each weapon.
