Control Configuration

[operative x]

I know this seems a little odd of a thread, but for us modders it really helps to know what are the most common control configs people use so we can create easily maneuverable games. I've noticed that whenever i go to internet gaming cafe that people have some of the oddest controls set up, or atleast configured very different from how i play. If you guys could just list what key you put for certain actions it would be very helpful. Heres mine for example:

Crouching: Shift
Jumping: Spacebar
"use": mouse3
reload: r
Leaning: q, e
prone: Ctrl
sprinting: v
Inventory: Tab
Weapons selection: wheel mouse or z for primary wep and x for secondary.

this is what I use for hl2..

Movement: arrow keys
Primary fire: Left Mouse
Secondary Fire: Page Down
Jump: Right Mouse
Crouch: Right CTRL
Sprint: Right Shift
+Use: End
Reload: Delete
Flashlight: Home
Weapons: Numpad 1-5
Physgun swap: numpad 0

That config is insane man. That definatly takes the cake for the oddest controls ever.

LOL - yeah, that's like some old button configurations that were forced on you with games like Earthsiege II. I use slight variations on the stock configuration; S for walk, F for reload, ALT for use, V and C for different vision enhancements (infrared, flashlight, zoom, whatever). Q, W, E, R, etc., are all left as "customizable" to the game's own features.

I would expect the most common to be some variant of WASD.

Mine:
Movement - ESDF
Aim, turn, fire, and weapon select - mouse
+Use - a
+Reload - q
Crouch - v
Jump - spacebar
Sprint (HL2)/Walk (CS:S) - Shift

Similar to Raeveno

Movements: ESDF
Fire : Left mouse
Alt Fire: Right Mouse
Jump : Middle mouse (I disable the wheel to make sure I don't switch weapon whlie jumping)
Use : W
Reload : Q
Last Weapon : R
Crouch : Space
Walk or Sprint (depends the game) : A
Drop weapon : G
Weapons : numbers (not numpad)
Aimbot : Insert

Hum wait, no I don't use Aimbot...

Default configuration, with a few changes:

Right mouse button as jump
Middle button as alt fire
Mouse sensitivity cranked up to "Super High"

[Loc-Dog]

movement: A,S,W,D
look, fire, weapon select: Mouse
Walk: Shift
Sprint: X
Jump: Space
Crouch: Ctrl
Flashlight: F
Drop weapon: G
Previous weapon: Q (Slow motion button in HL2)

Thats the base configuration with a few adjustments. It fits great, and it doesn't take long to create it. Just press "default" and change a couple of things.

This is an interesting thread. I never got used to WASD controls - I prefer the number pad because all the keys are aligned:

LMB/RMB: Fire/Secondary-Fire
8: Forward
2: Back
1: Left
3: Right
Enter: Jump
Period: Duck
Divide: Use
Plus/Minus : Next/Prev Weapon
Multiply: Flashlight
5: Zoom
7, 9, 4, 6: Weapon Slots
0: Showscores (multiplayer) or Walk/Sneak (singleplayer)
Right Arrow: Sprint
Mouse wheel scroll down: Reload

The rest of the arrow keys and nearby pgup/pgdn/home/end etc keys I use for other weapon slots or other binds depending on the mod/game.
