I never knew how to bind impulse 101 to a key You’ll want to bind impulse 101 to something to make this go a lot faster. If you’d like to do it in one go, bind a key to impulse 101, via bind (whatever key you like) impulse 101.Ī2 – The best thing you can do is go into the console (make sure sv_cheats is 1) and set sk_max on all your weapons to some insanely high number, then go crazy with impulse 101 (such as sk_max_ar2_altfire 20000). Then press ~ and turn cheats on by typing sv_cheats 1 into the command line. Activate the console via options keyboard advanced ~ for console.
