Third Person view in Left4dead 2 allows you to shoot the infected with more accuracy.those who like to play third person shooters must try thi sview in the game.To apply this view,you need another cfg file named “thirdperson.cfg”.This config can be executed from your “Autoexec.cfg” in the following manner:

//Third Person Perspective with mouse wheel zoom [requires thirdperson.cfg]
// ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
alias “defaultzoom” “zoom.40″ //default zoom distance for thirdperson mousewheel zoom (change zoom.## to any multiple of 5 (30 – 200)
bind “MWHEELUP” “up” // thirdperson camera zoom up and firstperson weapon scroll
bind “MWHEELDOWN” “down” //thirdperson camera zoom down and firstperson weapon scroll
bind “q” “thirdpersonshoulder; togglezoom” // thirdpersonshoulder toggle bind (remove “togglezoom” to disable the mousewheel zoom feature)
exec “thirdperson.cfg” // thirperson zooming script
//bind “q” “lastinv” //last weapon used [Default]

Then in thirdperson.cfg,you should write:

// third-person shoulder mode with zooming

echo [ thirdperson.cfg LOADED ];

This will enable the Third Person view in Left4dead 2 on loading the cfg, if you face any issues regarding that you can ask in comments and we will try our best to resolve it.

This file actually executes all the included commands when the game is launched.Source based games can easily be tweaked and customized by executing all these console variables in one text document.

You can use any text editor to make your CFG file.All the configuration files must be pasted in “cfg” folder of the game i.e left 4 dead 2\left4dead2\cfg in case of L4d2.”Autoexec.cfg” is actually a list of  “CVars” on a text document.

What Is Meant by “CVar”
CVar stands for console variable.A CVar can have different values and types e.g Boolean : 0 (off) or 1 (on), Integer : A whole number. (Example : 123, 1, -500, etc…), Float : A number with a decimal. (Example : 0.33, 1.5, 50.4, etc), String : A set of characters etc.All these commands can be found and executed in the Console windows.

You can access the console by pressing the button(`) above the Tab button.If it’s not working then you will have to enable console from  settings.

// is a standard comment when coding, it’s used to put in information into coding files to explain/describe what’s going on, or to comment out bad code. So every new section in the config file must start with “//”.

Example
For example, if you want to set  in game name from autoexec.cfg then you can do it by adding some text in the file.You will see the same name everytime the game is launched.The code that you must enter in a text document for “in game name” should look like:

//Set in game name here
setinfo name yourname //edit yourname
echo Tobi

Tobi is the name that will be visible on the developer console.

How to use the Boolean variables in Autoexec.cfg
One can also add Boolean values in the config file.For a Boolean variable there can be 2 outcomes only i.e either On/Off or True/False  etc.For example if you wnt to turn the console On or Off you should use:

// Startup Settings

con_enable “1″ //default 0; Enables Console

Similarly different CVars cn be added under the same startup class like cheats etc.

How to Reduce Lag  Using Autoexec.cfg
You can improve your network performance to reduce the in game lag using the following CVars in the text document:

//Client Network Optimization
cl_updaterate “30″ //default 20; packets per second you request from the server
cl_cmdrate “30″ //default 30; command packets sent to server per second
cl_interp “0.067″ //default 0.1; interpolation value to match updaterate 30
rate “30000″ //default 10000; max bytes/sec the host can receive data
cl_timeout 60 //workaround for server disconnecting prematurely before map load
cl_resend “1.5″ //default 6; seconds to wait before retrying to connect to a server
cl_lagcompensation “1″ //default 1; Improves hit registration

This may take longer to connect to the server but it will definitely reduce lag.

How to Use/Add  Binds in “Autoexec.cfg”
Binds are the shortcut  keys to execute certain commands in the game repeatedly.For example of you want the Voice chat button other than “C” which is deault ofcourse,you can use the bind in the following way:

//Voice chat

bind “v” “+voicerecord” //voice chat – Default: b

This will set the voice chat key to “B” so that you will have to press b everytime uo want to talk instead of “C”.You can add different binds for your own comfort.

How to Use Alias Command
One can execute commands one after the other in a sequence using a short “alias”.It can be any key on your keyboard.All you have to do is enter that alias key and all the commands bound to it would be executed e.g:

//Server Status and SM Admin
alias sv.check “toggleconsole; clear; echo [ SERVER STATUS CHECK ]; wait 60; status; wait 60; sm plugins list; wait 60; meta list;”
bind “F5″ “sv.check”       //Check Server Info in console

Here all the mentioned commands in the sequence are loaded on entering “F5″ key in the console.

There are hundred of CVars and binds available on the internet for Left4dead2.Now since you know that how this Autoexec.cfg thingy works,you can add these CVars and binds as you desire or make your own. Here is a list of  CVars you might be interested in, It includes both the console variables and the hidden variables which are not included in console.
