You can't use binds from the menu.

When you start tremulous you can pass any commands as arguments proceeded with a +.
So:
tremulous.x86 +connect wherever

My quality as admin or petty arguments between 2 retards are not the subjects here, solving DARK*VENOM's problem is.

Do you see DARK*VENOM posting that his problem is solved? As long as he hasn't posted that his problem is solved, you can just assume.

its already solved lolz

dont get all mad because we are trying to take ur spotlight on helping someone, foxx has already done that!

Personally, as a moderator, I don't care who helps who on the forums - I try to when I can, and as long as someone does I call it good.  Oh by the way, the thread where Foxx helped someone is the other one you spammed.

What I do "get all mad" about is people who post junk just to increase their post count, especially when in other places their main concern was how many posts they need to get before they can smite someone.  While the occasional one-line reply is not only sufficient but appropriate, that's one thing.  But filling the forums with junk, which makes it harder for people to find answers to their questions.. well, that's where the one-liners get obnoxious.

In this particular case, and to the original poster (Remember him?  All the way at the top, he had a question about binding a command to run /connect), I think David's answer probably sums everything up.  I'll add that even at the main menu, you can open the console to do the /connect manually.

To keep this thread from becoming a cesspool as well, I'm locking it - if you have other questions, feel free to open a new thread (or if you have a follow up to something here, send me a PM and I'll open it up again).

Pre-posting edit: Alright, Lava's got a point.  Nevermind about the lock :P

problem not solved

Well that's clear as mud :>

I saw your other post about the lockups you're experiencing, you might want to summarize things here instead since this thread is specifically asking for help instead of where the HUD is being discussed.  Any and all information you can give could be helpful, including any errors or text from the console as well - you can view that by opening the Console program, which is in /Applications (or /Applications/Utilities, I forget and my laptop isn't booted right now).  Tremulous logs there by default, so you can see what was going on when it locked up.

If you mean your problem about issuing /connect from the game console once it's loaded, that one's already been answered waaaay ^^ up there :>
