Counter Strike Source Binding guide

Buying things at the beginning of a match can be a flurry of numbers hit, or a very slow
process. Possibly even a deadly process if you are Terrorists on Dust 2. Binding greatly
speeds this process up, as you only need to hit a single key to buy what you want. It
doesnt take very long to set up, and all you need to watch out for is that your fingers do
not slip while buying, or else you will end up with something you do not want
First, you need to be able to get into the console. In the game, the key to get to the
console is the "`/~" key. If you cannot already get into it, then you right click on the
game and properties > set launch options > type in -console

In CSS, the format for binds is as following:

bind (key) buy (item)
in between bind and the keycode, there is one space. In between the key code and the
command, is another space. The command is surrounded in quotation marks.
Following are the keys of the numpad, and the names of the weapons.

For an example of binding, the code I have for my numpad is below. Each different line
is a separate line in the console.
bind kp_slash "buy vest"
bind * "buy vesthelm"
bind kp_minus "buy defuser"
bind kp_home "buy AWP"
kp_uparrow is open for a choice on a whim
kp_pgup is open for a choice on a whim
bind kp_leftarrow "buy m4a1"
bind kp_5 "buy ak47"
bind kp_rightarrow "buy mp5navy"
bind kp_end "buy hegrenade"
bind kp_downarrow "buy flashbang"
bind kp_pgdn "buy smokegrenade"
bind kp_ins "buy usp"
bind kp_del "buy deagle"
bind kp_plus buyammo2
bind kp_enter buyammo1

Radio
You can also bind radio commands. These probably wont fit on the num-pad with your
weapon binds , and a lot of the keyboard is taken already, so the function keys would be
best. Their Key codes are F1 to F12.
The radio commands are:
voice (console code)
Cover me! (coverme)
You take the point! (takepoint)
Hold this position! (holdpos)
Regroup team! (regroup)
Follow me (followme)
Taking fire, need assistance! (takingfire)
Go go go! (go)
Team, fall back! (fallback)
Stick together! (sticktog)
Get in position and wait for my go! (getinpos)
Storm the front! (stormfront)
Report in team! (report)
Roger that!/Affirmative! (roger)

Enemy spotted! (enemyspot)

Need backup! (enemyspot)
Sector Clear (sectorclear)
I'm in position. (inposition)
Reporting in. (reportingin)
Get out of there, it's gonna blow! (getout)
Negative! (negative)
Enemy Down! (enemydown)
Switching Weapons
Switching weapons can be a little clumsy if you are using the number row, and very
slow if you use the scroll wheel. To switch weapons quickly with other keys, you bind a
key to that weapon.
Key codes for all the letter keys are that letter. For the misc. keys, like ;, ', or [, the key
code is the lower case character on that key.
To write the bind to switch weapons, type the following
bind (key) "use weapon_(item name)"
The console code for the knife is (knife)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Are you tired of being the last one to rush because you're spending too much time
buying your weapons? Do you want to be the FIRST one to rush instead of the last one?
Here's a tutorial that might be useful for you...
First of all, the general format for binding keys is:
bind "key" "command"
Lets look at buy binds to start with.
Buy commands:
Pistols:
buy glock (9x19mm Sidearm)
buy usp (KM .45 Tactical)
buy p228 (228 Compact)
buy deagle (Night Hawk .50C)
buy elite (.40 Dual Elites) buy fiveseven (ES Five-Seven)
Shotguns:

buy m3 (Leone 12 Gauge Super)

buy xm1014 (Leone YG1265 Auto Shotgun)
SMG's:
buy mac10 (Ingram MAC-10)
buy tmp (Schmidt Machine Pistol)
buy mp5navy (KM Sub-Machine Gun)
buy ump45 (KM UMP45)
buy p90 (ES C90)
Rifles:
buy galil (IDF Defender)
buy ak47 (CV-47)
buy sg550 (Krieg 550 Commando)
buy famas (Clarion 5.56)
buy m4a1 (Maverick M4A1 Carbine)
buy aug (Bullpup)
buy scout (Schmidt Scout)
buy sg552 (Krieg 552)
buy awp (Magnum Sniper Rifle)
buy g3sg1 (D3/AU1)
Machine Guns:
buy m249 (M249)
Equipment:
buy primammo (Primary Ammo)
buy secammo (Secondary Ammo)
buy vest (Kevlar)
buy vesthelm (Kevlar+Helmet)
buy flashbang (Flashbang)
buy hegrenade (HE Grenade)
buy smokegrenade (Smoke Grenade)
buy nvgs (Nightvision)
buy defuser (Defusal Kit)
Those are all the weapons available in the game. In order to bind them, simply use this
format:
bind <key> "buy weapon"
So, for example, to buy an AK47, enter this into the console:
bind <key> "buy AK47"
Some people like to add multiple binds to one key - such as buying an AK and ammo,
plus a vest and helmet, to the same key. In this case, simple seperate your different
commands using a ;(a semi colon), Example:
bind <key> "buy AK47; buy primammo; buy vesthelm"

You can add as many buy commands to a key as you want, just make sure you use the ;
to seperate them, and that you enclose the whole buy section with quote marks (").
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Binding to the Keypad:
These keys are not used in the default key binds, and (assuming you use WSAD for
movement) are free to be bound to other commands. They are all located on the
numpad, to the right hand side of a standard keyboard.
KP_INS (the 0 key)
KP_DEL (the decimal point)
KP_ENTER (the Enter key)
KP_PLUS (the Plus key)
KP_END (the 1 key)
KP_DOWNARROW (the 2 key)
KP_PGDN (the 3 key)
KP_LEFTARROW (the 4 key)
KP_5 (the 5 key)
KP_RIGHTARROW (the 6 key)
KP_HOME (the 7 key)
KP_UPARROW (the 8 key)
KP_PGUP (the 9 key)
KP_SLASH (the / key on the numpad)
* (the * key on the numpad)
KP_MINUS (the - key on the numpad)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------Examples
code:bind "KP_INS" "buy ak47; buy m4a1; buy primammo" (Will buy an AK or an M4
with full ammo, depending on team choice, when you press 0 on the keypad)
bind "KP_DEL" "buy deagle; buy secammo" (Will buy a Desert Eagle (regardless of
team choice) when the decimal key is pressed on the keypad)
bind "KP_LEFTARROW" "buy flashbang" (Will buy a single Flashbang when the 4
key is pressed, on the numpad)
bind "KP_5" "buy hegrenade" (Buys a frag nade when the 5 key is pressed on numpad)
bind "KP_RIGHTARROW" "buy smokegrenade" (Buys 1 smokegrenade when the 6
key is pressed)
bind "F3" "buy M4A1; buy AK47; buy primammo; buy flashbang; buy hegrenade; buy
defuser" (Buys a full assault kit (rifle, primary weapon + ammo, 1xflash and 1x frag and a defuser if CT) when you press F3)

These binds can be added to and editted, to fit your needs - but the KP keys are not used
by default and as a result, can be used without fear of overwriting existing key binds.
