1 - Choosing a Class
The game has thousands of characters for you to choose from (9), but let's choose this funny guy.



Scout is the fastest character in the game, and besides jumping, he has the second jump in the air, but we won't go into that for now, maybe in another guide in the future
2 - Jump
After choosing Scout or any other character (works on all, don't worry), you should press the SPACE key

If you are not familiar with this key on your keyboard, the following images will show you where it is located



If your keyboard is a little more colorful, the SPACE key will be here



Now that you know where the SPACE key is on your keyboard, you can perform jumps in the game

A short demonstration of how the jumping movement is performed

Now looking at the ground

Before



After



Notice that the character takes his legs off the ground, performing a movement in which he transfers energy to his legs and gains momentum over his body, propelling him upwards for a short period of time, this is called jumping, a movement inspired by a human ability in real life

Now, if you were unable to perform the jump, you may have misplaced the SPACE key (if so, go back a bit in the guide and review the location of the key), but if you are actually pressing the SPACE key correctly, your game may be configured incorrectly, see below for up to 3 methods of how to fix the game
3 - Setup - Method 1
You will need to press the ESCAPE or ESC key, which will open a menu. Follow the steps in the image to get to the desired location



After successfully getting here, you will need to press the left button of your mouse twice, now press the desired button to make the jump, in my case I will use ENTER to jump. Now, press the ESC button again to return to the game and perform the jump to see if it is working
Method 2
If it still isn't working, don't panic, it may be a game error.

This time, we will configure the jump key from the console, to enable the console, press the ESC button again and follow the instructions in the following image



Apply the changes made and press the key ( " ) to open the console

In the empty bar you will type the following code

bind space +jump



Press ENTER and close the console. Now you will probably be able to jump
Method 3
In case the 2 methods didn't work, this is the last way to set the jump key

Close the game, open Explorer, and go to the following location:

SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\cfg

Depending on where you installed the game, it might be located in one of these places



Now that you are in the correct folder, open the file config.cfg with Notepad



Look for the following line:



You can use CTRL + F to locate it faster



Now where you put between quotes ( " " ) is the jump key, you should write SPACE like in the images above

Save the file and you are done, you can jump

Thank you very much for reading my guide, I hope I have cleared up all your doubts, even with my bad English
