Most useful console commands you know

What are the most useful console commands you know? Type them in a quote with an explanation as to what they do! Allow me to go first

cl_ragdoll_physics_enable 0

Disables bodies. Must be done before joining a server. Great for Gun Game night, since we don't have a server mod to disable bodies.

"kill"

If you're the last guy on a team and want to make it look like you died running into a wall use a bind as soon as you hit the wall.

sm_ban

bans people ._.

no but really

cl_showpos 1

shows your velocity and stuff so you know how fast you are moving with each different weapon

 

[shan^K]

"ignorerad" - Ignores all radio commands.
"sm_voice_enable 0" - Ignores annoying people on the mic.

 

[Trippey]

sv_host_timescale .25

slow mo!

 

[fps]

cl_playerspraydisable 1|0

turns on/off sprays, but requires a server reconnect. I had sprays off prior to playing on eGO because my wife sometimes is in the room and I didn't want her to see me playing a game where kids spray nude pics all around.

But they are back on now that eGO is the only place I play

It's "voice_enable 0".

My favorite command has to be

cl_yawspeed 5000; +right

Go into a server and try it. I guarantee you it is useful though.

My useful command is net_graph 3 because its looks cool.

[Kami]

[Zimmy]

Indeed. Instant score eraser plus 2 second rest time.

One thing I discovered is that you can bind keys to bind keys.

For example, I have these:

bind f5 "bind mwheelup +jump;bind mwheeldown +jump" for bhopping
bind f6 "bind mwheelup lastinv;bind mwheeldown lastinv" for switching last weapons really fast (usually pretty pointless but kinda fun )

This makes it possible to have multiple binds for the same key; however, I'm pretty sure it doesn't work with commands that take parameters (like the say command). bind f8 "bind o 'say test'" doesn't work; bind f8 "bind o \"say test\"" doesn't work, etc.

Not sure how useful it would be to other people, but just something I found out for myself. (If someone knows how to use it with functions that take parameters, I would love to know how )

Also, it appears that cstrike\cfg\config.cfg lists all of your binds; useful if you need to see all the binds you have, I suppose.

The b-hopping thing actually makes it like 70% easier, definately a must have orfofjejail!

I griefed jail with this when I was an e and people got really mad, although it wasn't really griefing since I told the people beforehand what it does and they were silly enough to still do it, than cuss at me. Fun times.

I have that bound to my K key on all Source games.
