This is how it should look for team message binds.
Within 'User' directory

Within the files.

i would if i could but i cant.

for those without macs this is how you bind a key

bind <key> "say ___________"
or to bind a team message

bind <key> "say_team__________'

guess this is exactly what was told by torus - isn't it ?
except torus' way is even better, because he uses aliases which make them more flexible ...
if you need to bind the messages to another key you change the alias - not the whole bind. so if you recognize ingame that a bind is crap you could simply switch to ingame-console and enter something like 'bind "newkey" aliasname'.

if this is done your way you have to enter this:
'bind "newkey" "whole fucking message that might be long and with some^4color or $variables"'

what might be a bit complicated during battle.

Honestly i think this is a non-valid argument.. have you ever changed your binds ingame???
I have a fixed set of team messages and try to NOT change them if possible. Of course i sometimes find things to improve but i never did so ingame. And also you hardly have the same message on two keys so alias name "say_team blabla ^color" is not really shorter then bind x "say_team blabla ^color"..
The use of variables is a nice thing as it saves one from repeating stuff but i used a good text editor which is just as good at that :)

Heh"... a little typo :)

In picture that Torus send previously: autoexec.cfg & torusKB.cfg looks like difrent from config.cfg and torus.cfg. For some reason files in my .Nexuiz "user" directory
all looks like those conf ig.cfg and torus.cfg. How can I change that so I can get it work right? I gues that is one reason binds/aliases don't work.

-Thank you again.

well all those three files were created by torus.. none of those do come with Nexuiz or are ever touched by Nexuiz. All Nexuiz does is to read the file autoexec.cfg when starting up.
And inside those files you can use the 'normal' Nexuiz-console syntax to do stuff.

I created 3 separate files for ease of use, so I can fool around with the KB one when I need to edit Key Binds, and the alias one when dealing with aliases. No other reason.

Yes i basically do it the same way. I have one file with my basic settings like binds and brightness, crosshair settings, one with linux specific settings and one with low effect settings.
Just to organize it better and have it all clean.
