>>> Vaccinator Easy-Switch Script (2 layouts) <<<

- Tired of having to cycle between resistance types instead of just CHOOSING the one you want?
- Tired of having to count modulo 3 in the middle of TF2 havoc?
- Then this script / guide is for YOU!
At the end of the guide you will have either a key for each resistance type, or a key to toggle between bullets and explosives and a key for fire resistance, so as to be able to enjoy this high skill cap medigun without any unnecessary overthinking. Enjoy.

Intro

So, if you are reading this guide, it's probably because you are sick of the one-key-only loop:

Now, with the help of this script, you will be able to have one of the two following layouts:

Autohotkey (AHK)

The script will quite often need to emulate a double reload key press, and this cannot be achieved by simple .cfg scripts when the server does not allow the wait command!
There are four ways to work around that :

Not doing anything, and deciding to use this script only when the wait command is unlocked/available. In that case you will have to uncomment (remove the pair of initial slashes at) the 3 binds at the beginning of the cfg, and won't be needing AutoHotkey.
Getting used to always double pressing the buttons between resistance types[gist.github.com]
Using Kered13's Workaround
Using AutoHotkey (http://www.autohotkey.com/) : be warned it is a third-party program, so Valve could in theory ban you for that (and I take no responsibility in it, use this script at your own risk), but if you search a bit at the Steam forums, you'll find that AHK is not flagged as a cheat by Valve, something coherent with the fact AHK gives no advantage compared to a fully stuffed keyboard for instance (keyboards with macros in it).
TL,DR : it's a program you need to download and install, without any fear / worry whatsoever 'cause you should not be VAC-banned for using this VAC-script (lol).

Installation

Download either the 3-keys layout script[pastebin.com] or the old 2-keys layout script[pastebin.com] and rename the file as "medic.cfg"
(make sure the file type switches from TXT FILE to CFG. If Windows is hiding the extension, either unhide it (Google), or copy/paste the raw text into Notepad and save the file as medic.cfg after having chosen All file types (*.*)).
Place it inside (C:\Program Files (x86)\) Steam\SteamApps\common\Team Fortress 2\tf\cfg\ folder
Download and install AutoHotkey (http://www.autohotkey.com/)
Do the same with the following file (3-keys layout[pastebin.com] || old 2-keys layout[pastebin.com]) and the .ahk extension (you can name it however you like, as long as it has the right extension, and place it wherever you like it, too : for instance, the desktop, where you can find it easily and quickly).
Enable auto-reload in TF2, as your reload key won't be working anymore. Manually reloading in this game is the most idiotic thing to do, as you lose nothing with automatic reloading on (in TF2, the reload is instantly interrupted when a shot is fired). For the Eureka users, I recommend using an Eureka script : it can save a full second for each teleportation.

What the AutoHotkey script does is adding to the R,F,C keys a second key press, of the 'Numpad 5' key (the one that does nothing when typing). The AHK script being quite self-explanatory you should be able to tweak it to your needs, as long as you adapt the bindings from the initials lines of the medic.cfg file accordingly. Check here the key names list from AutoHotkey[ahkscript.org].

Remember you can pause the hotkeys at the icon tray.

Usage

Double click the .ahk file. The AutoHotkey green icon should appear at the system tray (bottom-right icons). There is a white 'H' on it when the script is working, and a white 'S' when the hotkeys are suspended (in which case obviously the script won't be working)
Equip the Vaccinator and pick Medic (the order does not matter).
Important : whenever you respawn, you have to press the 'Numpad 8' key (Numpad 5 if using the old 2-keys layout) to reset the script's vaccinator state to bullets (sadly it cannot be done automatically). If you'd like to use another key for that, change the reset_vaccinator binding at the beginning of the medic.cfg file.
Enjoy.

Here is the raw code too.

Uninstall

Right click the Autohotkey icon tray (if it's still running) and click exit to stop it.
Delete all the text inside the medic.cfg file, and replace it with the following 3 lines :
bind r +reload binc c voice_menu_3

I didn't understand what i'm supossed to do with the AutoHotKey thing

32 Hairless Frogs from Idaho 27 jul, 2022 @ 18:28

Is there a way to bind mouse 4 and 5 to this script?

Medic BF 6 jul, 2021 @ 14:01

@Darth Serious Thank you for the help! I appreciate it :)

Señor Maracuyá [skapare] 6 jul, 2021 @ 12:55

@Medic BF (https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/profiles/76561198197422098) I haven't tested this script in while, but changing the key bindings ought to be easy enough not to need testing from me: you'd have to change the r:: and f:: in that AutoHotkey script file with e:: and r:: respectively.

Regarding the delays, you can try tweaking down the numbers after the `sleep` commands.

To summarize both things, the new script file would start with something like:

e::
........send {Numpad9 down}
........sleep 10
........send {Numpad9 up}
........random,sleeptime,15,24

Getting the timings right may require some tweaking, since if they're too fast the game may ignore the new input. Hope it helps

Medic BF 10 jun, 2021 @ 9:24

I know this is an old guide, but I have two questions.

First, how low can I lower the sleep command (which influences how long it takes to switch from one resistance to another)? Right now, its much slower then how fast I could physically press it, which isn't as useful to me.

Secondly, how do I change the old 2 button script so that I can use the "e" key for bullet/explosive, and "r" for fire?

Thank you so much in advance!

Hey I know this comment section is old but whenever I use this script I see a line of text along the top right of my screen and its really annoying.Any way to remove it?

''be warned it is a third-party program, so Valve could in theory ban you for that''
bye

Señor Maracuyá [skapare] 4 maj, 2018 @ 15:07

Yeah, I suppose so too. They most probably fine tuned the switching functionnalities and more commands should be used for the script to work :/
