The "Fast Weapon Switch" option, in Half-life 2, seems to enable quick switching when I press the number keys, but does not affect the invnext and invprev commands. When I do this in all other source engine games, it also causes quick switch on the invnext and inprev commands. I find this much easier because I then don't have to look at the top of the screen to see what weapon I'm about to take out, and can just memorize how many times to scroll the mouse wheel, and I find life without it in Half-life 2 to be a hassle.

I thought they might have disabled this for single-player, but if this is so, then it would have been disabled in Half-life: Source, which they did not. Half-life source does this perfectly.

Is it normal for Half-life 2 not to have quick invnext/prev? If not, then is there a way to fix it? If this is expected game behavior, then does anyone know of a good quick weapon switch script for HL2? The one I used to use in HL doesn't work in the source engine, and only quickly switches weapons 50% of the time.
 
Then why does it work with Half-life: Source, as well as all other source mods?

because they are different games. although, they are made with the same engine, they are still different.
