All of a sudden out of nowhere, pressing G tosses a bag. I look at OPTIONS/keyboard and G is blank. So i edit key and select "G". It appears to take, but it never works..it continues to be blank. oddly enough i can map a V for secondary grenade, and it works...but not G. G just tosses a bag.
This is what is says in console:

someone once told me about deleting some file and letting steam reload from scratch. I'll see if I can find the link.

Here's something to try from Steam Forums:
https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=3134-TIA...
Also, this is what I once saw recommended on the steam forums:
Yes there is a way to repair steam - delete everything in your steam folder except steamapps and Steam.exe. Run steam.exe and it should redownload and reinstall Steam. Steamapps folder is where your game files are stored and so if you don't delete it you won't have to redownload your games. Try that and see if the errors continue
Someone said this method worked for them. | |

Do you ever play on servers other than drippys? Just curious. Because if an admin has rcon access they can rebind your keys. And binding ones "toss grenade" key to "toss bag" kinda makes me think they did it so you could not use grenades.
One of my favorite things to do to teamshooters that were disrespectful twats was bind mouse1 to kill or to disconnect. Kinda got rid of them for a time before they figured out what the hell happened. | |

It is very important that you have your config.cfg to be "read only" in the properties tab. That way if it is altered by anyone it will always change back to the original config after a game restart.
Edit: And backups of your configs are worth their weight in gold especially if you have alot of custom binds and alias's for comms, etc.

What DeathBringer said is exactly what I thought of when I read the OP.
I hope you have backups of your config files. Seriously.
I've had a shitty admin on another server try that with me, but I'd learned long ago to have my configs read-only, so once I disconnected, no harm done.
Still, that's a real asshole thing to do. If you can remember what server you were playing on when you first noticed this, or what server it may have been that did it, we'd all be able to avoid it.

Thanks for the replies.
I checked the properties tabs and they all say "read-only".
I play in a few other servers and the problem occurs in all of them (Twisted, EVIL, Royston, LuckyStrike).
I dont back up anything because i have no binds of any kind nor customized anything.
Imagine your grandmother asking you how to send an email - then imagine she gets dementia. Thats me with computers. In the decades im playing TFC i never looked at my steam folder.
So i appreciate the directions as if i was retarded.
Should i do this?
"delete everything in your steam folder except steamapps and Steam.exe. Run steam.exe and it should redownload and reinstall Steam. " | |

Elf, If you were force converted to the steam-pipe fuck up, you might not be looking in the right folder.
The first thing I would do is make sure you're looking at the correct config file in the correct folder, then check to see how it's set up in there. If it's something done in game then once you rejoin a server it should revert to how your config file is set up if it truly is "read only" Your reply leads me to think that, steam is running a config file from a different location than where you are looking.

DB, i found that file, config.cfg
and it was NOT read only. I selected it now.
I cannot see what is this file, as its a cfg and windows cant read it.
Smoke - you are correct that there are tons of files that all look the same, and many config folders ( they all have a single file in there called MasterServer.vdf), but the config.cfg in the path DB wrote out is probably whats messed up. | |

Thanks smoke. I opened the config.cfg file with notepad and saw that "G" was bound to "drop", so i went into game and opened the console and simply typed:
bind "G" +gren2
and it worked. Except when i exit TFC and reload TFC its back to the way it was.
But at least i can play now.
I edited the value in the config.cfg file, and saved it, checked the read only box. But it still doesnt map properly when i load tfc
---------------this is what appears in the console when i join:

I can help here. I always make backups. Of everything. EVERYTHING.
Better to have too many copies of something, than lose the only one you have.
Since you said you use a stock config, here is the original config that downloads with TFC:
 | // This file is overwritten whenever you change your user settings in the game.
// Add custom configurations to the file "userconfig.cfg".

Easy way to do this, is to rename your config.cfg file to something else. Open Notepad in Windows, and paste what I quoted above. Save the text file as "config.cfg". Mark that as Read Only.
IF that doesn't fix it, I can post the "userconfig.cfg" file for you. | |

I'm thinking he should at this point just reDownload the game. Or delete some of the files and let steam verify them. | |
