it is useful for recording movie with viewmodel 1 from POV demos with no viewmodel in cfg
For LETIshNick’s post if you look at Skyride’s post here it has some useful information about how to override player settings such as viewmodels when making movies.
For the original question, I don’t really do any tf2 scripting but I guess you could do something like this –
alias “command1” “whatevercommandthatwillrunallthetime; command2”
alias “command2” “whatevercommandthatwillrunallthetime; command1”

that’s one of problems which i want to solve
alias “command1” “whatevercommandthatwillrunallthetime; command2”
alias “command2” “whatevercommandthatwillrunallthetime; command1”
I’m not sure but when i tried this tf stopped answer on any request and I had to terminate the process by ctrl-alt-del(or maybe it just crashed) i’ll check it at night

Well yeah I expect that would happen, you’re basically telling it to run the same command infinitely which is a bad idea with computers. Most programs will either refuse to allow you to do it or will crash.
duh i’m master in creating infinite loops.
java rocks :P

I have a program you might be interested in. It takes the source-code of another program and analyses it and tells you if it’ll run infinitely or not.
That might help stop the crashing.
:owned
start “cmd”.exe
start “cmd”.exe
goto :owned

Yes, Im struggling to see why you would want to have a loop in a basic scripting language anyway (if you can even call it a language).
To be honest, what your asking is a B > C question. You want to achieve C so are asking us how to do B, but first we really need to know what A is.

Start with command1.
I’m not entirely sure if this would work out and cant be bothered to think about it properly (and I also cant test it right now :P). I guess its best to trial & error.

Snowie already posted that, it works but it crashes TF2. :P

No, I’m re-aliasing the aliases in between so it’s not actually the same. It *might* work out, but then again I’m not entirely sure.
EDIT: Okay wait, I think it is the same, just overcomplicated… I have to think about this again.

If you’re just looking to override peoples viewmodel settings and whatnot for movies you could do alias r_drawviewmodel “” for example.

Honestly, don’t waste your time. The bottom line is that if TF2 is given a console command, it will stop everything else (graphical calcs, physics calcs, taking keyboard/mouse input) until the command has finnished executing. So if you do create an infinite loop, TF2 is going to crash. Also, everytime you run an alias you iterate deeper into the tree and therefore increase memory usage. So even if it DID work, youd still just end up with TF2 using all your RAM and then BSODing. :P
Think of aliases as like brackets in maths.
