Help making an alias command

[rsbloom44]

I'm trying to make 1 key bind to turn on/off timedemo instead of having two separate binds.
I was thinking it should look something like this:

Aliases[29]=(Command="timedemo 1 |set input Key g",Alias=demo)
Aliases[29+1]=(Command="timedemo 0 |set input Key g",Alias=demo)

What am I doing wrong?

Well, there is just more than that.

Normally when you start "recording" the demo, it have to have a name for the demo. [demorec name]
Then stopping the demo. [stopdemo]

I am not sure if you have heard of Demo Manager?

I am not trying to record a demo. If you type timedemo 1 into the console it shows your fps.

• The part in square brackets is supposed to be a number, not some kind of mathematical expression. Each alias must have its own number between 0 and 39.
• Each alias must have a unique name, because they are always active. Consequently your aliases should be called something like FpsOn and FpsOff, or whatever makes sense to you.
• The SET command's syntax for keybinds is "set input keyname command", where keyname is the name of the key you want to bind the command to (see below the Aliases list in the [Engine.Info] section for examples) and command is a console command or alias name.
• I hope you remembered to bind the initial command to a key as well.

My understanding was the +1 to the alias number meant it was an extension of it.

So this is what I got now

Aliases[29]=(Command="timedemo 1 |set input Key g ",Alias=FpsOn)
Aliases[30]=(Command="timedemo 0 |set input Key g ",Alias=FpsOff)

I'm a little confused though, since I just wanted 1 keybinding how do I bind my key to the alias?
G=FpsOn|FpsOff - something like that?

Use XConsole 3.5
Download: http://medor.no-ip.org/index.php?dir=Ut ... 5.0rc2.zip

Setup XConsole Demo:

• Play Mode - ?timebased
• Auto Rec - Online Only
• All Games
• 1ST Person

I hope this will help for you.

I'm haven't misunderstood you are trying to have a button to toggle between timedemo 0 and 1?

It's been a while since I've messed with aliases so I don't really recall the formatting, but IIRC something like this should work:

Aliases[29]=(Command="timedemo 1 |set input g FpsOff ",Alias=FpsOn)
Aliases[30]=(Command="timedemo 0 |set input g FpsOn ",Alias=FpsOff)

G=FpsOn

[Wormbo]

Indeed. The idea is that by executing one alias, it automatically rebinds the key to the other alias to achieve the toggling. There's really nothing complicated about it if you understand that aliases are replaced by their corresponding command string when you execute them.

Thank you everyone for your help.

Aliases[29]=(Command="timedemo 1 |set input g FpsOff ",Alias=FpsOn)
Aliases[30]=(Command="timedemo 0 |set input g FpsOn ",Alias=FpsOff)
G=FpsOn

This worked.

Oh ok. Thanks, I may try this.
