How do I open the Commands CFG file?

Hawkers · 07-10-2005, 12:14 AM

Silly question I know, but I'd like to edit commands for 'Fire Torpedo'.

When I click on the file in data directory, I assume the file will open in notepad format, but it doesn't. I get a message saying that Windows doesn't know what program the file was created with.

What's the procedure here?

Thanks

Try right clicking and selecting "open with".

And then choose notepad.

You want to edit command 313 to look like the following if you want it to be ctrl-enter for fire torpedo.

[Cmd313]
Name=Fire_torpedo
Ctxt=1
Key0=0x0D,c,"Enter"

Many thanks, Guys!

While we're here, can you suggest an alternative key command for Camera Zoom?

I'm using a track ball mouse, so no mouse wheel. Is this also found in the Command CFG file?

Good Hunting!

Bought a trackball for my mum some years ago, and it did have a mouswheeel. I gues yours must be a really old one then.

I use Notepad2 instead of Notepad, it`s much better - http://www.flos-freeware.ch/notepad2.html

You can also use Cavalier889`s Set Keys utility, designed to make key remapping a breeze

Thanks M8!

Is it compatible with version 1.4?
