binding quick weapon switching
Before trying this, you may want to back up your user.ini.
Scroll down past the aliases to the key board key bindings. Most like you will use the mouse scroll up or down.
Next you can enter the following for MouseWheelUp. This will allow you to switch between your weapon set 4, 3 and 2. (Note: It will only select your top 2 weapons in the order you have them. Here I have your special weapon (Hunting shotgun, LAW, Crossbow) as the first set selected, then the primary weapons as the second selection. If you only have a special weapon or a primary weapon, the the second weapon selected would be your pistol.)
MouseWheelUp=PipedSwitchWeapon 4|PipedSwitchWeapon 3|PipedSwitchWeapon 2
Code for more than one on each weapon set. (This will switch between two specials, primary's or pistols depending on what's in your inventory.)
MouseWheelUp=PipedSwitchWeapon 4|PipedSwitchWeapon 4|PipedSwitchWeapon 3|PipedSwitchWeapon 3|PipedSwitchWeapon 2|PipedSwitchWeapon 2
Since you can only select between two weapons using this code, you could use MouseWheelUp for your big weapons and MouseWheelDown as your small weapons like 9mm and handcannon.
MouseWheelUp=PipedSwitchWeapon 4|PipedSwitchWeapon 4|PipedSwitchWeapon 3|PipedSwitchWeapon 3
MouseWheelDown=PipedSwitchWeapon 2|PipedSwitchWeapon 2
Pros:
Easy weapon switch with minimal button steps.
Cons:
If your weapon is empty, it will still switch to that weapon.
You still need buttons for weapon set 1, melee and tools, medic syringe and welder.
Other comments:
If you want to switch through all weapon sets, I would guess you will have to script some aliases to do that.
