How to modify keyboard shortcuts?

Hum, can't change the . to turn the UI on/off. It must be hard wired.

I found out the same thing and this is the command you cannot access from anywhere else.

Or???

Where are the experts?

There is a command to hide the UI, and you should be able to map it with jimimadrid,s program.

your laptop probably has a keyboard that allows you to access the Num Lock feature. On my loveno laptop the entry is Fn and Num Lock. Then when I hit the "." key, I can insert the crew in the anti aircrapt gun station in TMO. By hitting Fn and Num Lock as second time, the regular keyboard is resurrected and the gun is manned.

If you research your keyboard set up, you should be able to locate the combination required to use the Num Lock feature. The problem is that when you are in Num Lock mod, many keys may be assigned different function, so Keymapper may be the best bet.

I know there is but, it is not listed in the commands.cfg, so the . key shows up in jimimadrid,s program as white with no command listed for it, so therefore we can not move it to a key we do have on our keyboards.

That is exactly the problem, it is not listed as a command in the commands.cfg file. But the "Esc" key for the "in game menu" is not listed there either so there must be another file where these keys are assigned to certain in game commands.
Maybe somebody knows...

I am not sure what the problem is. I have a laptop and I mapped this on my computer. However, I used set keys to do it, but it was at least a couple of years ago and I don't remember how I did it.
SetKeys was developed forSH3, but with some effort it can be made to work with both SH4 and SH5. SetKeys has the advantage in that it can asign a series of commands to one key
When I have time I will look into it and see if I can do it again.
