Updates of the Week (ongoing discussion)

[at0m]

that last one will only flip viewmodels while you hold the button down, that could be why it isn't working.

This ^

You need to reconfigure the alias so each time you press the key, it flips the models and rebinds it to flip them back, and vise versa

[Wedge]

Well I'm using this and it works gud.

alias "flip" "flip_on"
alias "flip_on" "cl_flipviewmodels 1; alias flip flip_off"
alias "flip_off" "cl_flipviewmodels 0; alias flip flip_on"
bind "mouse3" "flip"

Well I'm using this and it works gud.

alias "flip" "flip_on"
alias "flip_on" "cl_flipviewmodels 1; alias flip flip_off"
alias "flip_off" "cl_flipviewmodels 0; alias flip flip_on"
bind "mouse3" "flip"

this would be the bind-agnostic (read: GOOD) way of doing it, yes.

[Negate]

One line bind
bind "n" "incrementvar cl_flipviewmodels 0 1 1"
replace n with your key of choice.

ok well that was worthless.

I can't tell you how much I loved that update. I mean, if you were invisible, and you got hit by this thing, you'd still have a chance. Without it, you barely have a chance of coming out of that thing.

Brotip: Don't get hit. I agree with intangible guy over there, it's still hitting you. The rest of us have to deal with that annoying piece of crap gun, why shouldn't spies just because they smoked a fag and put on a paper mask.

He was obviously referring to the Pro-ro

ambassador kinda sucks now, no building penetration, no enemy penetration (boing boing!), fewer headshots, etc.

And in other news, the Revolver still kicks ass.

Also I don't know why they let the FAN knockback disguised spies when a soldier can't.  The Pyro thing was dumb though, because it made it so airblasting a flaming disguised spy extinguished them.
