Grav gun jumping script?

[udigom]

I saw a guy today using the grav gun to get all the way to the top of the buildings in dm_overwatch.

He would stand on top of a car and he must have a bind that makes the grav gun shoot in rapid succession very fast, and he could literally ride the car ALL the way up to the top of the buildings! Anyone help me with the bind code I could use to try this, what is it +fire or something similar?

Udi

[Judas989]

Yeah, that'd be very cool.

[udigom]

Ok I saw him do it again, he stands on top of a large object, be it a car or desk or whatever...It looks like what he does is just firing the attack mode in the grav gun, you know where the bolt of lightning comes out, and the object pushes him up, and he fires again so fast that the object just keeps bouncing back under him again and again until he is like 5 stories high! Hell I gotta learn this and the dude won't tell me how he did it.. He gets way up on top of the map and just frags hell out of everyone.

I'm not really familiar w/ scripting but what it sounds like he's doing is...

grav gun attack; switch weapon forward; switch weapon back; grav gun attack;

over and over again. Any weapon in the HL2 games can only be fired so much within it's preset period. w/ the grav gun, it can use the "push" attack only twice or so per second, which isn't enough to do what has been described above.

Now switching weapons quickly, forward to the crowbar we'll say, then back to the grav gun would probably reset whatever information is held in the game about the grav gun, specifically when it was last fired. Many games work this way.

I don't think it's too hard create a script that does that and bind it to the mouse wheel so it can be done very quickly. Anyone familiar w/ scripting? :laugh:

It could potentially also be used by w/ the "last weapon used" bind as well.

It might be doable this way:
alias GGQF "+attack; -attack; invnext; invprev"
bind mwheelup "GGQF"
bind mwheeldown "GGQF"

Now scroll your mousewheel quickly and it should fire a lot more quicker. If anybody has a list of what the weaponnames are used in the console in HL2DM, i could make it better. I'll go try the script first now. :)

Edit:
Ok, that doesn't work. :) I need to know how to switch to a specific weapon to make it. :)

[Diddle]

Ok, I made something now that works pretty well. I can't go up several stories, but I did manage to go up one. It doesn't work when I'm on cars, usually only on light stuff like radiators:

alias "GravGun" "use weapon_physcannon; wait; wait; +attack; wait; -attack; use weapon_357"
bind mwheelup "GravGun"
bind mwheeldown "GravGun"Now scroll the mousewheel like mad and you should indeed go up when you're standing on something light.(It bounces on the floor back to you and hits you up)
If it doesn't work good, add another wait command between the +attack and the -attack. :)

[udigom]

You guys are doing a great job of picking it apart, I appreciate it!

Let me break it down better as to what I saw;

1) Dude stands on a car, or a desk, after positioning it next to the buildings right below the RPGperch, anyone who plays dm_overwatch knows exactly where I mean.

2) Dude fires grav gun in rapid succession, causing car to COME UP with him. He ascends roughly 5 stories, and jumps off.

3) Dude now kills with a pistol from far above. Noone can find him.. He is chilling out on heretofore unknown perch in dm_overwatch.

This dude obviously won't tell me what he is using, but I gotta know! This is a big fat bug I know we can exploit somehow.

[Judas989]

I haven't tried that script out yet Diddle, kudos on creating it though.

BTW udigom, I've actually seen people up on the RPG perch as well, come to think of it. I just thought they hopped up there somehow and I was too busy getting wasted to try and get up there. I've seen people up there in more than one server though, so I think this script is fairly widespread.

[Elf-Boy]

no script needed mate just stand where you want on the big object

hold down attack and keep tapping q fast and it fires rapid with grav gun

[coco]

here it is for your free eye........ iam the guy that bouce the car :)

I think something's missing there... The rest of the script looks very nice, but what do you bind to a key? "physjump; rjump1" ?

[Judas989]

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.

[blahwtf]

ya i tried binding a couple of keys but no worky....do you have to bind a key to every alias and then tap all keys lol?

[Jesus Claus]

Just go to your gravity gun and hold down fire than tap Q. I got to the top of the buildings a few times. It takes some pratice though.

[udigom]

Whaaa? What is "q" on your keyboard? It has no function on my settings :ermm:

[Elf-Boy]

Whaaa? What is "q" on your keyboard? It has no function on my settings :ermm:


bind "q" "lastinv"



best if you have the melee weapon as your last weapon used before the grav. it just seems to work best then

[harvey]

Q IS LAST WEAPON USED, U NEED NO BINDS OR ANYTHING, I DO THIS, JUST HAVE FAST WEAPON SWITCH ON, AND HOLD FIRE/TAP Q, EASY!!

soz bout caps, newbs need 2 listen!

[udigom]

heheh! Thanks guys, I can get up about 15 stories high now using wep switch.. I was on a server doing it and everyone stopped killing each other and all we did was grav jump for 3 hours, after I taught 'em how.

[udigom]

Ok I finally figured it out..Also I have discovered that by setting "pagedown" on the keyboard as your "last wep used" instead of using "q" the primary attack from the grav gun is almost instant, and you only have to hold it down as opposed to tapping it really fast when you use "q". I have gotten so much air on my jumps it is unreal.

Here is a dem file I made, called jimmyjump.zip, put it into here to view it..

"C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\your username\half-life 2 deathmatch\hl2mp"

and type playdemo jimmyjump...it will take a few seconds to load

Peace, Udi

You figured it out. By using a script?
Or just binding lastinv to pagedown and then hold fire and pagedown?

[harvey]

using no bindingsa, setting page down as last weapon used.......

[udigom]

I just went into keyboard options and selected PGDN as my last weapon used button. I had no idea it is a repeater key on most keyboards, so all you have to do is hold PGDN and grav gun fire, standing on anything movable, the bigger the better, and you will fly as high as you want taking the object along with you. On my friends server we had three guys standing on a car, and I took us all up about 20 stories. Absolutely hilarious.

Don't forget tho, you have to enable fast wep switching in the same spot where you enable the developers console, in advanced settings.

[randomjester]

Thanks coco, I got your script to work.
This script is so easy to execute in game and it cuts down the time to just using one key instead of doing the process manually. Thanks for posting it.

[Diddle]

Ok, I got it working as well. Nice script. For the people that don't understand it yet, I thought I'd write it down here.


alias +GravJump "+attack; +lookdown; lastinv"
alias -GravJump "-attack; -lookdown"
bind pgdn "+GravJump"
Select the gravity gun before pressing PageDown, so lastinv will be the Gravgun.
It will automatically look down so you can do it quickly before some mofo shoots you off the car again on which it took you 2 seconds to get onto. (God! I hate those people! Can't they see I don't shoot them, I just want to play around!)

[Judas989]

Very nice, finally had the chance to test out the script. Very fun. Is there any other key that repeats that's closer to the W,S,A,D config? That'd be nice and make the jumping able to do a lot quicker than having to move your hand all the way across the keyboard (for those who use the WSAD config that is). For those who use the Up,Down,Left,Right config though, it's very nice. Thumbs up!

[randomjester]

alias pjump "pjump1;pjump2;pjump3;pjump4"

alias pjump4 "cl_pitchspeed 225;-lookdown"

alias physjump "+attack;wait;wait;-attack"
alias physjump5 "physjump;physjump;physjump;physjump;physjump"

unbind "MOUSE4"
bind "MOUSE4" "pjump"


You don't have to do it with the pgdown way.
I use the scipt coco posted. One key does it all. You can just paste all that code into the autoexec cfg and change MOUSE4 and any key. This here is coco's.

[Judas989]

randomjester, that scripts works, but will eventually kill you if you go up more than a few stories. I believe this is because the firing rate is a lot slower than using a repeating key, like PGDN.

[Jesus Claus]

Whaaa? What is "q" on your keyboard? It has no function on my settings :ermm:
Its quick switch. Look in opintions keyboard and it should say something like fast switch or quick switch.

[udigom]

Much faster than my version, GJ Diddle

After trying the pgdn way, I agree, this way you actually get up higher and less likely to kill yourself.

Great! Way more complicated than mine, but this way you jump too and you die less. :) However, you have to press the button multiple times to come high, right?

[Judas989]

Yes Diddle, you have to hit the key a bunch of times. I found w/ the script above, only four or five taps of the key will get you pretty high, but you're either down to 15 heath or dead by the object hitting you.

I like both scripts, Diddles and coco's but Diddles kills me less, allbeit it takes more time to do. If we could only find... maybe a program that can bind keyboard keys to mouse buttons? So we could bind PGDN to mouse3... or maybe to a closer key near WSAD?

I think this script could fall under the "bunnyhopping" category if we could find a way for it to be done quickly.

EDIT: After playing around w/ the scripts this morning, it's safe to say it's do-able to get up on the rooftops during a fairly quiet game, but forget it when there's over 14 people on the server, 'cause no one will leave you alone long enough. Not to mention if you DO manage to get up there, you've probably only lived long enough to grab one or two weapons and you're screwed once you run out of ammo.

It's fun though, it would be better if it were rapid-firing from say, mouse1. It puts much more force into the "push" than the regular attack from the gravgun and could probably be used to kill people faster w/ small objects.

[udigom]

Yeah, using wep switch with page down, if I get into a grav gun war with someone I win just about everytime because I can blast the object right back at them super-fast. Works great when you run behind a car or dumpster and just blast away and bowl over everyone in your path. And I agree with the jump thing. Fun as hell, but impractical in a server with lotsa peeps on it. If only we could figure a scrip to jump onto an object and pgdn fire grav gun all in one motion....

iam working on one that when you pick something it does all this for you

push 1 key and then:
01)-grab object(you must trigger on 1 first,must be bigger than a tv)
02)-it wait till you push the key again then
03)-put the object under you
04)-use the gravGun to make you jump high....(you can old the key to jump more high)
05)-when you release the key it trigger to you last weapon

[haha123new]

ok i find grav jumping even higher than the top level with the rpg very easy heres wot i use
bind mwheeldown lastinv
bind mwheelup lastinv
then just go on a object holding grav gun and keep scrolling like hell while holding fire

ps i find tables and cars the easiest to do it but i have beeen on the top of the map with a pc monitor which is harder

[udigom]

Eh? Pwning with no ammo? Once I run out, my ass is grass. And there is only like three maps that you can get to the top on, overwatch, towers, and harbour and possibly 2 others. My point is izzat it is way fun to get to the top of the map, but once there your options are severely limited.. OH and PS has anyone noticed that in Overwatch there is like a half completed map after you jump the wall near the pick-up spot for the crossbow? Not fer nuttin' but it looks like the creator was going for something there and gave up on it

[tobi.m]

i got one problem:

if i press the button multiple times i can jump very high, but the car hits me and i die befor i am on top of the roof! how can i solve that problem??

[udigom]

What works for me is if you are directly centered on the object, like a car, stand right on the roof and point directly down...tables, radiators etc works the same, ya gotta be centered on the object..That's the bitch of it all, because while you are trying to center yourself, you are wide open for being killed. Filing cabinets seem to do the least amount of damage, BTW.

Found these on another site, These work really well and you can use them to spam objects long distance:


alias pushspam "<;<;<;<;<;<;"
alias < "use weapon_physcannon;+attack ;w3;-attack; phys_swap"

alias pullspam ">;>;>;>;>;>;"
alias > "use weapon_physcannon;+attack2 ;w3;-attack2; phys_swap"


These go on your mousewheel and they are designed to be scrolled forward and backward:


alias ggp_1 "use weapon_physcannon;w1;+attack;w1;-attack; phys_swap;"
alias ggp_2 "use weapon_physcannon;w2;+attack;w2;-attack; phys_swap;"
alias ggp_3 "use weapon_physcannon;w3;+attack;w3;-attack; phys_swap;"
alias ggp_4 "use weapon_physcannon;w4;attack;w4;-attack; phys_swap;"

alias gpa_1 "use weapon_physcannon;w1;+attack2;w1;-attack2;phys_swap;"
alias gpa_2 "use weapon_physcannon;w2;+attack2;w2;-attack2;phys_swap;"
alias gpa_3 "use weapon_physcannon;w3;+attack2;w3;-attack2;phys_swap;"
alias gpa_4 "use weapon_physcannon;w4;+attack2;w4;-attack2;phys_swap;"

alias w1 "wait "
alias w2 "wait ; wait "

You can press these repeatedly to catch stuff:

alias -push "-attack"

alias +pull "+attack2;phys_swap;phys_swap"
alias -pull "-attack2"

Allright I found a cool way to grav jump without getting your butt kicked by the object you are grav jumping off of, be it a car or whatever..

You know those shelves? They are like 4 tier metal shelves. You can actually set them up and climb into them, using crouch, then when you grav jump, they don't mess up your health.. In fact, you can grav jump like mad while staying inside the shelf and bounce hella allover the map.

Peace, Udi

Peace, Udi Do you have any idea how many times you'll get shot trying to stash those archives? But yes, when you do get on top (tried it in my own empty server), it will shoot you upwarths until you hit the skybox and die anyway... :/

[udigom]

Well, I set the shelf up against a wall, climb into it and I scoot up the wall all the way to the top of the skybox, let myself decend a bit while still inside the shelf, fire grav gun again, and my arse is all over the map with no health loss..Works good on a server with 4 or less players to kick the butt of some RPG camper anyway!

Peace, Udi

Neat trick, assuming this still works I'll give it a shot sometime. I don't play enough hl2dm. :cry:

bind "your_key_here" "rjump1" <---binded to my mouse4

I load up DM, I type exec autoexec.cfg,

I play and it does nothing..

What am I doing wrong?

[udigom]

dunno why you are going thru all of that to do grav jumps..One of my best weps is to auto fire the primary gun on my grav gun, and blast away at all in my path..can't do that with a "look down" scrip.

Best thing to do is make sure "fast wep switch" is enabled in your keyboard advanced settings.

Then bind "last wep used" to page down key.

Next, just select grav gun in game, jump on any object, look down, and hold primary fire key and page down.

Scripts are ok for jumping, but you really should leave open the option to super grav-gun blast stuff in order to clear a path to an area for example..

Peace, Udigom
