Walk/Slow Movement as default [READ DESCRIPTION]

!!! CREATE THE CFG FILE BY YOURSELF OR ELSE KEYBIND CONFLICT !!!

What does this mod do?
This is the CFG file to override your current WASD and Shift keybinds to make your movement become slower as default without holding down Shift all the time (because Shift is for "sprinting" now). You are effortlessly doing that.
The main reason i wanted to create these keybinds is to make the experience pair up well with Slow Zombies scripts which can results an entirely slow-paced gameplay conversion.

Installation
  1. Go to \steamapps\common\Left 4 Dead 2\left4dead2\cfg and create a new text document end as .CFG format (not .TXT) file. My personal naming is SlowWalk.cfg for example.
  2. Copy the code for SlowWalk.cfg (you can open .cfg file as NotePad) then Save it:
    alias +SlowForward "+speed;+forward" alias +SlowBackward "+speed;+back" alias +SlowMoveLeft "+speed;+moveleft" alias +SlowMoveRight "+speed;+moveright" alias -SlowForward "+speed;-forward" alias -SlowBackward "+speed;-back" alias -SlowMoveLeft "+speed;-moveleft" alias -SlowMoveRight "+speed;-moveright" alias +SlowSpeedKey "-speed" alias -SlowSpeedKey "+speed" bind F6 SlowAsDefault //You can replace overriding key here bind Shift +SlowSpeedKey alias SlowAsDefault "bind w +SlowForward;bind s +SlowBackward;bind a +SlowMoveLeft;bind d +SlowMoveRight;bind Shift +SlowSpeedKey"
  3. Launch the game, wait for all addons loaded
  4. Open console (if you don't know how go to Option > Keyboard/Mouse > Allow Development console Enable then press ~) and type
    exec SlowWalk.cfg
    Or whatever your cfg filename you just created. Also, it's better you put that line in Launch Option to make the game do execution automatically.
  5. Load a map, press F6 to override keys, tap Shift to truly begin slow mode.

Known issues
  • Everytime the map is loaded slow mode will not work. Just tap Shift to fix. If I fix to apply immediate slow when loaded, any input hold/release new movement keys will distrupt the Shift sprinting. So no fix of that, current aliased is already the best afaik.
  • You cannot restore keybinds to normal during a game, as rebinding will not completely wipe keys function. Please leave the map to main menu first and rebind in Option later.

Would you be able to help me with something I'm trying to do? I've got a script that causes the player's FOV to zoom in when they press mouse2 in a sort of "aim" similar to WWZ. I have the script, but I can't get the player's speed to return to normal after releasing the button.

bind Mouse2 "+fovzoom; +speed"
alias +fovzoom "fov_desired 90" //pressing changes fov to 90
alias -fovzoom "fov_desired 120" //releasing goes back to 120

alias +walk "+speed"
alias -walk "-speed"

Bind W to slow walk and shift to walk normally, no need to sub to this mod. enjoy
