If you are taking binds from another source, say the [http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/3229 Custom Binds and Aliases Thread], you won't need to type them in manually unless you want to do it the hard way. | If you are taking binds from another source, say the [http://www.vendetta-online.com/x/msgboard/1/3229 Custom Binds and Aliases Thread], you won't need to type them in manually unless you want to do it the hard way. | ||
#Find the file named '''wgaf.cfg''' in your Vendetta folder and open it. For Mac users, you will have to '''Show Package Contents''' of the Vendetta Online package in order to get to it.

==Deleting a bind while in the game== | |||
While in the game, on the command line, just bind the key to a non-existent command. Usually this can be accomplished by hitting random keys until satisfied that you have a non-existent command: | |||
/bind o asdgf8af | |||
The game will report that command "asdg.." does not exist. | |||
Further calls to ''/bind o'' will indicate that the key is not bound to anything. When you restart the game and check wgaf.cfg, the bind will be gone. | |||
Unfortunately aliases cannot be "deleted" in the same way. | |||

As this example demonstrates, you can also within the alias assign new aliases as part of the assigned alias. This nesting can get quite complex, but also gives you a great deal of control. | As this example demonstrates, you can also within the alias assign new aliases as part of the assigned alias.

In the below example, the alias example creates a new alias foo, that contains two commands included within the single quotes. It also calls a third alias, foo3. | In the below example, the alias example creates a new alias foo, that contains two commands included within the single quotes.
