MSC crashes

[Stoned]

I recently started crashing after I deleted some config files. I was trying to fix some screen resolution issues and cartman said to try and delete the user config, etc, but that really didnt work. In fact, it made it worse...for some reason +uber doesnt work (I tried bind z +uber and that was unsuccessful). I tried re-installing the MAY2010a betapackage and even that did not work. Any clues?

Well, you pretty much fucked it up so i dunno. Since you tried re-installing the patch and not the mod itself, i say you should try reinstalling it completly or just wait for the new full installer anyways... Your choice.

Other than that you can try deleting everything in the halflife/msc directory and see if it works after... rofl. :roll:

+uber doesn't work because you deleted it. There's no MS:C command called +uber, it's an alias command that's set up in the userconfig.cfg.

//Included Combos
//- Useful for consolidating get items and +use object
alias +getuse "get;+use"
alias -getuse "-use"

//- Consolidates charge and attack - downside is you can't hold to repeatedly attack
alias +uber "+attack;wait;wait;+special"
alias -uber "-attack;wait;wait;-special"

That be what you need to put in there. And the reason installing the patch didn't work is because it'd be stupid to overwrite configurations every patch. >_>

this is what I have in my userconfig.cfg

//Included Combos
//- Useful for consolidating get items and +use object
alias +getuse "get;+use"
alias -getuse "-use"

//- Consolidates charge and attack - downside is you can't hold to repeatedly attack
alias +uber "+attack;wait;wait;+special"
alias -uber "-attack;wait;wait;-special"

if you delete config files you should only delete the config.cfg file as there's alias commands in the userconfig file.

the 105 fov is what you need for proper field of view at 16:9 resolutions.

and resolution settings can't be changed in the config files, it can only be modified in the registry(without using the -w -h flags.).
