Go to the bottom you should see
//
// Aliases
//

If Not just a copy and paste and use my example


//
// Aliases
//
alias name2 "set name ".t$n^AriFeannor";bind - name"
alias name "set name ".t$n^Ari Feannor";bind - name2"

Then you would also add or type in console later

bind - name

You can name your alias anything you want and the whole line has to be in quotes as well as your name its self having its own pair and no spaces before or after the semi colon ;. And don't forget to bind each alias to the other alias not the same one. This will make a cycle, if you don't want a cycle you wont need the bind part. Just make each alias for one name that would look like this

//
// Aliases
//
alias thisname "set name ".t$n^AriFeannor""
alias thatname "set name ".t$n^Ari Feannor""

then bind - thisname
bind = thatname

Bonus alias

Changes whether or not you can see your gun or hands.

alias vma0 "set cg_drawviewmodel 0;bind e vma1"
alias vma1 "set cg_drawviewmodel 1;bind e vma2"
alias vma2 "set cg_drawviewmodel 2;bind e vma0"

Sound cycle

alias +sound "s_volume .450; bind d -sound "
alias -sound "s_volume .125; bind d +sound "

Model change cycle, its nice if you want to use force models and not use the biggest model yourself on either team especially if you switch sides.
alias team1 " dm_playermodel allied_manon ; dm_playergermanmodel german_panzer_tankcommander ; bind s team2 "
alias team2 " dm_playermodel allied_airborne ; dm_playergermanmodel german_afrika_private ; bind s team1 "

Lagometer toggle

alias +lago "cg_lagometer 1; bind a -lago "
alias -lago "cg_lagometer 0; bind a +lago "

Useful info, particularly the lago-o-meter....

The rest however ... have to ask why?
Don't get me wrong, not wanting to start anything! I'm a happy chappy!

why play under an alias?
why also use forced models ... my opinion only... - this is particularly bad
Creates bad habits, smart players need to be able to tell who is who .. and adjust their gameplay accordingly
Also very helpful to know if there is more then 1 shooting at you!
You might have an advantage using a colourful skin (you spell that word different here!) as the eyes do get attracted to movement and colours in general ... but this would become a downfall in fog (if you have it... ) and in dark areas etc

Again I am not having ago ... please be clear on that

The biggest model ... that just scares me .... I've seen a forced screenshot of a bigbird skin.... which obviously gives a great advantage and not what the game was design to do ... unfair and not the best sportsmanship

Same with snaps ....
I mean why try to gain an obvious advantage, I much prefer respect??

Anyways, wasn't supposed to be a gripe - not my intention!

I am a big fan of the way its meant to be played, also understanding the requirements/efforts to keep the game alive (which Misfits are achieving very well)
These skins are the first mods I have ever had, kinda enjoying them!
Never liked the blood mod, puts me off??

Anyways, see you all on the server again soon!

I even use smoke and volumetric smoke, which is a cool effect when things get blown up, though a few too many nades down a hall, and i can't see shit! I also like the blood mod, so you can see if you hit someone at a distance.!
