how do I make a gun script?

[dwarfed centipede]

Iv tried a lot of stuff now. I want my mouse4 button to switch back and forth from _weapon1 and _weapon2. The "alias" command doesnt work and vstr doesnt work. Anyone know how I can get a .cfg file to actually exec something?

//autoexec.cfg file
bind mouse4 "exec nextweap.cfg"

//nextweap.cfg file
bind mouse4 _weapon1
vstr mouse4
bind mouse4 "exec nextweap2.cfg"

//nextweap2.cfg file
bind mouse4 "_weapon2"
vstr mouse4
bind mouse4 "exec nextweap.cfg"

If possible, anyone know how to put all these in my autoexec.cfg file? I keep getting error messages when I tried this:

set nextweap "bind mouse4 _weapon1; vstr mouse4; bind mouse4 $nextweap2"
set nextweap2 "bind mouse4 _weapon2; vstr mouse4; bind mouse4 $nextweap"
bind mouse4 $nextweap

I keep getting "unknown command _weapon1" or _weapon2 when I hit mouse4 no matter how I code it.

You can't have commands starting with _ in a bind chain, which will be why your autoexec and "$nextweap" scripts don't work.

so how do I do get a key to do 1 thing and switch to another back and forth?

Per MoPs post, you cannot create weapon scripts
