Theres actually a thread around here that have people's configs posted. What would help you, is if you found it (Tip section, Name "post you configs" from frag, i think), and reviewed how each person has their configuration files and maybe even copy and save one as yours. Anyways, i use the wasd keys and a mouse. _________________ <---- LinktoDeath-TPF-VS-

I use WASD format, here is my setup to give you some ideas.
WASD = movement keys
Or you could use ESDF for more keys to bind stuff to. Just bind all the nessary stuff to the keys next to your movement keys. The most important thing is to keep it tight together so you don't have to search for the keys.
-EDIT-
Just copy pasted this from my config.cfg

default_fov 98?!? why not just set it to 100!
Oh, and I like the ideal of wasd, except that I use rdfg because you have more keys... _________________ The most hated.

Wewt, cause 98 owns you ! After looking at my config I been meaning to clean it up a bit, What I suggest to EVERYONE who plays offense, is to get a two touch nade script. It helps a lot with your HH's on the fly. I have been using G for my secondary nades forever, since I don't play offense hardly ever I never bothered to change it. But I am going to change it so I will practice more offense. _________________

WASD keys are SO much easier, i cant see how you can stand playing with the arrow keys. With WASD crouch, jump, weapon switch, tab and everything else is closer (including team/class switch) |

WASD
All my keys are within a finger's reach of another. With the arrowkeys everything is too spread out. WASD is a lot easier and stuff to use. Plus I don't need to use the mouse wheel to change weapons so I can bind jump to it, and hud_fastswitch switches weapons faster, then the mousewheel. Most people I know that are good and play CS use WASD, so that's pretty much where I picked it up from. Also, EE why would you possible play with fov of 98. |

I'm at work so I can't copy/paste my file for ya...
LOL, I seem to be in the minority here... I use arrow keys. (I'm a very good keyboarder, so I can hit the right keys away from where my hands usually are without looking and 95% of the time) I like the arrow keys so I can have some space for my fingers to not be accidentally dropping grenades or whatever is next to the movement key(s)
CTRL duck
Shift jump
Delete reload
End Walk
KP_End Grenade 2
KP_INS Special Skill
Right mouse button Grenade
wheel up and down switch weapons
A Drop ammo
F Drop Flag
C/X Change class/team
T/Y Team/public Chat
D detpack
M medic
3 build special (from NEO)
4 det sentry
5 det dispenser
6 det special
I rarely play spy, so I've totally ignored the feign/stop feigning/disguise binds. I also still use the menu to build SGs and dispensers, as well as aim them.
I bet I've got the most messed up (by your opinions) command keys of all! I'm so 1337! |

I don't know how anyone can live without this:
Mouse scroll up = nextwep
mouse scroll down = last wep
mouse3 = reload or feign.
i never have to use the rest of the keyboard for most classes. (have strafe and gren keys as . / ; ') |

I use the arrow keys and they have always worked best for me.
To help with the small amount of buttons over there I customize my configs for each class. So that I can use the same button twice but have it do different things for either class. To do this you have to add the lines.
setinfo exec_class on
setinfo exec_map on
To your autoexec.cfg.
Then go into the class specific .cfg's and bind away. For most classes Mouse2 is primary grenade, way easier than delete which I did use. I use mousewheelup and down to change weapons although I may change one of those to jump. Also use a key for last weapon, b/c most classes you'll only need two (in most cases)so changing isn't a problem then. Also EE I want to get the two button grenade for my secondary grenades for scout/medic so I'll get in touch with you on IRC or something.
Anywho, if you don't want to change and want to see my config get in touch with me bob and I could help you if you wanted it. _________________ "Don't be so humble - you are not that great."
