Some other improvement ideas for the default mode:

what about making the Nex always shoot from the eye when zoomed? The camping rifle already does that.

Rationale behind this idea is that when zoomed, you don't see the gun, so the wrong shot origin looks okay.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

It would be good.

But I still think every weapon should be shootfromeye, especially the ballistics like CR and MG, because intuitively you project trajectory from your point of view, not from where weapon is, which leads to "wtf new mg is so useless".

But you don't want the rocket to spawn right in your face, do you? :P

What's the definition of 'zoomed in', i.e. I assume it's not fov based right? As some people use fov (like me) and using that it can be circumvented easily (i.e. abused and create cheats based on that).
But I assume you, if anyone, would already know this anyway. :)

Yes I knew that :P Wondered if that uses fov type thing as well. If zoom speed is terminated it looks exactly like fov zoom, but I suppose this function is a bit more complicated.

you can configure the zoom speed.. just set it to -1 which means instant zoom if thats what you are missing. Really no need to use zoom scripts anymore

I think most settings in the config are the same than on any usual game these days. About binds, I actually think they could need some color... for e.g. armor and heahlt status. :?
