Is the backwards movement speed annoying? Here’s how to change it.
Basically everywhere I went no-one knew how to fix the backwards walking speed. But I found someone’s hidden post on how to change it. So I decided to make a similar guide using what I was able to find. Plus commands for crouching speed.
1) First make a text document called autoexec.cfg at this location:
Steam\steamapps\common\Dark Messiah Might and Magic Single Player\mm\cfg
(If for some reason you have one, then just add this in the already existing autoexec.cfg file)
2) From here you should only see a config.cfg file there and your newly made autoexec.cfg file. Make sure the file changes to an actual .cfg file type and not just a text document (.txt).
3) Once you’ve done that, add/type these lines inside the autoexec.cfg:
sv_rollangle 0 sv_airaccelerate 100 hl2_normspeed 200 hl2_sprintbackspeed 200 hl2_sprintforwardsidespeed 300 hl2_sprintsidespeed 300 hl2_sprintspeed 300 hl2_walkforwardsidespeed 300 hl2_walksidespeed 100 hl2_walkspeed 100 sv_friction 8.5 hl2_duckbacksidespeed 125 hl2_duckbackspeed 125 hl2_duckforwardspeed 125 hl2_duckforwardsidespeed 125 hl2_duckspeed 125 hl2_ducksidespeed 125
4) Now that you have the commands in that cfg file, go to steam and right click Dark Messiah and go to launch options for the game. Now type this command into your launch options:
+exec autoexec.cfg
Now that you’re done you’ve fixed the games movement speeds.
This will allow you to move backwards just as fast as forwards. Which is a good fix in my opinion. These speeds of 300 are fairly quicker than the default speeds. So change these numbers around if you think you’ve become too fast.
P.S. The sv_friction 8.5 command is what makes you stick the ground a little better. The default sliding once you stopped moving made it feel like the inertia was on ice. So, only add that line if you want to slide less.
There are also helpful crash fixes online if your game keeps crashing. You will need to download a small .exe that allows for more ram for the game.
