*Updated v1.1 — Changed the script to work properly with throwing knives*
*Updated v1.2 — Added two new versions that use the standard E key*
Before I start, this is by no means an original idea and I don't want anyone to think I came up with this. It has been around since the release of MW3 and they could never be arsed to fix it. Surprise.
This is a script made with AutoHotKey (AutoIt) that basically uses your melee knife attack, switches to your lethal and back to your weapon. It forces you to recover faster from an attack and gives you the advantage. You don't necessarily need a script for this, but by using one - you ensure the speed is right every time. I am sorry if a script similar to this has been posted before, I'm not aware, I just wanted to help people own some more.
I could not imagine this being bannable at all since it's possible without any external programs.
Alright. Let's get to it.
This does not work if you don't have a lethal in your bag and it won't work with a frag grenade either. Reason for that being when you use a frag grenade, the pin is pulled out. Some people prefer to use this with C4 as the remote will stay with you after use, therefore making the script work regardless, the only downside being if you press the button too frequently, it might bug and switch to your secondary weapon. I prefer to use semtex. That being said I usually have unlimited ammo, thanks to the many wonderful server hosting hacks available in this forum. For everyone who doesn't use those hacks, just keep the semtex in your bag! Or use C4.
I guess that's a good enough explanation as any. There's 4 versions included in the .rar and a ReadMe that explains all of them. The reason for 4 different ones is because I have no idea how to make a program where you could possibly select custom buttons for all the stuff that's needed. Hopefully this is good enough. Make sure to read the ReadMe. Also, to close the program, simply right click on it in the notification area (system tray) and exit. Worth noting, you can delete the three versions that you don't need and keep the one you choose to use.
Tested and working on Windows 7 32-bit.
If anyone has a request for other keys they might want to use instead, please let me know and I will gladly make a version that fits you.
I don't really have anything to take a screenshot of since there's no interface, but I'm gonna follow the rules and post one of the folder.
Here's a short video of the difference between a normal melee knife and the one using a script.
