Guide: Changing Your CS:S Autobuy Options

Ok, lets face it, the default autobuy options for counterstrike suck. Everybody needs a nade or two and a pistol is always nice aswell. But you can change your autobuy options. You have to edit a simple config file. I will show you how to do this.

Navigate to...

Program Files / Valve / Steam / SteamApps / USERNAME / counter-strike-source / cstrike

Find the text file named "autobuy"

Open It.

You should see a file with basic instructions at the top, a list of weapon aliases in the middle and your autobuy options at the bottom.

Using the aliases to suit your needs you can input options into the bottom list, in the order you wish them to try and be purchased.

It is best to put your favourite/more expensive weapons at the top and then your last resort weapons at the bottom.

Once you have edited the file, save it and you are done!

Here is an example of my autobuy file.

Code:
// This list of "buy aliases" is used by the AutoBuy system.

// The system begins with the first alias in the list, and attempts to purchase it.

// If a primary weapon is successfully purchased, all later primary weapon aliases are 

skipped.

// Similarly, secondary weapon buy alias are skipped once a seconary weapon has been 

purchased.

// You can customize this file to reflect your weapon and equipment preferences and 

priorities.

//

// The console command for autobuy is "autobuy"

//

// The available buy aliases and their names as shown on the buy menu are:

// (Many weapons have more than one buy alias)

//

Thing is, when i'm shooting at someone, i hardly ever hide behind anything, so all the people that do hide, often get shot in the head when the move across the front of my gun :rolleyes:
