Bamm

Hey guys, I had some issues with my settings lately and lost one of my most used binds. Which is a bind for /+activate, that some people put in the console each time. It basically defrost automatically when you look at someone without you having to press F/your use key and you won't accidentally pick up a weapon while defrosting. However, you have to put that in the console each time you go into game. Also, if you turn that on, you can't pick up weapons, or open doors. To do that you have to deactivate again. This tip is on binding that to one key, so you can press that to activate the autodefrost and you can press the same button to deactivate it (and open doors or pick up weapons). I first had those bound to two separate keys, but Cheyenne pointed me to the fact that it is possible on one. Then I used the suggestion of Boomboom use AI. AI used an old XI post where LOCO came up with a great answer seemingly based on another player too -> If you use his suggestion there, you will only have to press J twice at the start of your game to defrost automatically. And press J again to stop that. He also makes sure you don't have to write multiple lines in the console while in game. AI made an extra suggestion, and by using this code instead you will also get a message in the logs when you turn your autodefrost on and when you turn it off. That would be this code (using = as key to turn it on or off): bind F "+activate" set thaw_on "+activate;set thaw_toggle vstr thaw_off;^2AUTOTHAW:ON" set thaw_off "-activate;set thaw_toggle vstr thaw_on;^1AUTOTHAW:OFF" set thaw_toggle "vstr thaw_on" bind = "vstr thaw_toggle" If you want to put the commands in the console in game, you will have to put each line/command one at a time. Just spreading the knowledge

Thank you again! The files i found were from after the crash I figured out today, so no cigar. Still happy about the help though. Suggestion to use AI was also nice, cause it's really easy to find the right XI topics using AI. Helped me find one of the binds I was missing most.Then Cheyenne told me in game there is actually a version of that bind that is even better, so asked AI for that and it also found the right one I'm gonna put that as a suggestion in a new topic for anyone interested (about +activate and binding a toggle to one key). Rest of settings I'm slowly restoring to what they were, I'm pretty satisfied now.

Mayyybe I found something old? Gonna try that tomorrow. So then I make sure to back up my current confic file and then replace the old one in the same file right? The Appdata search doesn't do anything, maybe because I got it from Steam? Do I do steam --> common apps --> cod 4 or something like that

Edit: I gotta try something else first before I ask

Thank you Devious! That's all then. Unfortunately I discovered that my previous backups weren't of my ENTIRE computer but only off my files, pics and videos.. so I know what I'll do next time now, but this time I'll just try and figure it all out once more.

Very! Already better than your previous though.. don't you worry Sharpe, one day you just MIGHT beat the mighty Bamm.. If you keep training very hard of course

Yesterday I lost all my settings. I got an error downloading a map: And now I think it was based on not having enough disk space left Anyways, I at first thought it might be fixable by downloading the new cod update, so tried that and also got an error. After deleting other stuff, I could download the update and download the map, but all my setting were gone (probably because the update was interrupted), including binds, controls for killstreaks, settings for which graphics etc etc. I tweaked a lot over the years, trying to get my computer to like the game. Like usually it won't be able to get over 125 com fps, whatever that means. After losing my settings that rate dropped to about 50 because my settings had too much detail etc and I became very laggy. Cue a bad bad mood So I'm wondering, is there a way to retrieve and put in my old settings? Is there a place where my old settings got saved for example? I also have a manual backup from my computer from before we switched to cod4x where most of my desired settings were in effect. Could I use that in a way? I will also clean up my computer some more, so ill have more space. Final note, I can follow instructions on computers, but I don't have any knowledge of names of parts or programs or whatever, so if you're able to help, please explain in very lay man's terms

Hehe gotta keep you on your toes!

Heey guys, I was wondering if the stats are still working? If so, I still feel like the defrosts aren't counted correctly. Atm I got around 6000 kills and 6000 deaths. But only around 3000 defrosts. As people probably know, I tend to defrost more than I kill, so it should be around 6000 as well. Even if the defrost count wasn't correct in the beginning ( @Ruggerxi made a fix before), it should be around 5000 now compared to kills/deaths. It's also not just me, but other players who defrost a lot as well. Or is the stats website down anyway? Storm commented that it said he only had 12 carepackages stolen and the count hadn't gone up while he did steal 2-3 packages yesterday.

I was wondering, are the car defrosts (sentry defrosts, nuke defrosts) included too? They don't show up in the break down.

Yep not fun and definitely the part where the natives know you aren't native. Although from the languages I know, English is the only one that doesn't have the gendered nouns. And then you try Latin, and then every word has a gender and the gendered words also have about 6 different endings based on their position in the sentence if I remember correctly, and maybe even 12 if you also count the plural versions? I could not be bothered with it and dropped it as soon as I could. Regarding your second paragraph, I think every language has that? All in all, for most language learning it's better to just learn it in practice. Read and hear the language so much that one thing just feels more natural than the other instead of relying on grammar rules. Won't work in all cases, but at least it will make the learning fun

Honestly, the most useful part of my high school English lessons was how we had to memorize a whole list of English irregular verbs and how they had to be conjugated. Not to say I never do them wrong now. But I do still at times think of the lines like, to catch, caught, caught. To read red red. To ride, rode, ridden. And now I'm just hoping I'm remembering them right ?

Thank you! Goes to show how many I get out of my killstreaks I guess. Which also explains why I am not getting the defroster streaks xD
