What do you mean? The apple key? I'm not sure if that does work.. All other keys should just work via the Option/Controls menu.

I think mac keys might be named differently. Try using the Options/Controls menu as esteel suggests.

if <command> contains a space or ; it needs to be surrounded by "
ala:
Code: Select all
alias +myzoom "fov 35;sensitivity 1.73"
alias -myzoom "fov 105;sensitivity 5.2"

bind u +forward
bind j +back

bind y "impulse 9"
bind i "impulse 7"


Those two should also be identical:
Code: Select all
bind semicolon dropweapon
bind ";" dropweapon

Hi!
You can bind straight to config.cfg by opening MacHD -> then press Shift+Cmd+G -> It brings up menu called: Go to the folder. -> Write there: ~/.nexuiz
that should bring up Nexuiz Data folder, where you can find config.cfg and edit binds.

In Data folder there is also autoexec.cfg where (too) is possible to make aliases. If not, one can make it by using mac's own TextEdit application and renaming it like that.

-I wish that helps a bit. 8)

No aliases should ONLY be made in autoexec.cfg. config.cfg is recreated each time Nexuiz is closed and it only saves binds and settings that differ from the default (and that are marked as being savable)..

That wasn't the point, but thanx for correcting my reply.
You mean that aliases should also/or only be made from terminal in game? How about binds? -Maybe that is why some of my aliases doesn't work.

If you enter aliases via the game-console they are JUST NOT SAVED. In fact aliases are NEVER saved. Next time you start Nexuiz those aliases are gone. Each alias you want to persist HAS to go into autoexec.cfg

Binds however are saved to config.cfg EACH time you exit Nexuiz. It does not matter were they came from (some config file or the console) they will be saved.

Oh and by the way some keys were found not to work on mac osx.. that will get fixed in the next version. But still i'm not totaly sure what Leader really wanted to know :)
