BongoTrumman: How do i make my own config file to be executed every time?

Here's 2 ways. I use the second way.

1. Create a new config(copy and paste of another cfg or create a new text document but change the file format to .cfg instead of .txt) called autoexec.cfg. All cfg files can be read and editied in notepad. Don't use other apps like word because the text format can get wrong. Everything in this autoexec.cfg will be executed everytime you start cs:s.

2. Rightclick the steam icon in system tray >> Games >> My Games tab >> rightclick counter-strike:source >> properties >> General tab >> press set Launch Options... >> Add this +exec bongo.cfg >> click Ok.
You can also put +exec bongo.cfg in your desktop shortcut but then it only executes the cfg when starting the game via the shortcut. Do note you have to create the bongo.cfg file with some settings first. You can call it whatever you want :wink:.


Let me know if you want more info about how the different cfg files works, like config.cfg will be overwritten if the server forces a setting for you or when you change some settings in-game or via console. Your own executed files will never be overwritten unless you edit them yourself. If you enter a server which forces some custom rates on your client it will write them to your config.cfg and you will use those rates on the server but since you own created cfg executes after config.cfg next time you enter a server you will have the settings you set yourself again.

EDIT: oops. I had to many tabs open and forgot to refresh before I replied. Well you got another option in this reply so it wasn't entirely overkill :D. Cheers Gilly.

Whaat's this - rate 25000? This doesn't look like a commande and it's not in the config file ??

It is a command(setting).

Enter cs:s and bring down the console and type rate and press enter and you will see what value you have and what the default value is.

Vote for sticky. I couldnt do ANYTHING when I got my WS untill i read this.
