Question

Autoexec.cfg : your custom configuration file

Answer

To make your autoexec.cfg file, make a New file with Notepad or Wordpad. Save as autoexec.cfg in the C:>Steam>SteamApps>youremail>half-life 2 deathmatch>hl2mp>cfg directory. Type in your commands, binds, etc. Now right click on it. Choose Properties and then Read Only. Once you have started up a game and the config.cfg file has received your custom commands, exit the game. You can also make the config.cfg file read only. This will prevent server side or Steam changes to your cfg. It doesn't hurt to have a back up copy of both files.
