Mike89 Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 This is irrating to have to hit the shift key with the ~ to get to the console. First game I have ever had to do this. In the cfg it is configured the same way as all my other games, (bind ` toggleconsole and bind ~ toggleconsole) yet with this one the shift key is still needed. So has anyone figured a way around this? There has to be a way.
RedEye Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 bind toggleconsole on some other key and you won't need Shift anymore
Minimaul Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 It's probably like that because , the 1 key is for saber. And a lot of people use WASD to move. And I don't know about you , but when I'm in a hurry sometimes when I go to hit 1 , I'll miss and hit ~ . And in UT , and Q3 , that will bring up the console. There is nothing worse , and being in a 'battle' and hitting ` bringing up the console. It really , ...blows. So adding the shift ` , makes it so you will not do that. And if you've never done that , then I worship your perfect fingering (heh).
RedEye Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 I've got my UT console key on F11 so this can't happen
dansolo Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 I prefer the standard Q3 / Half Life console personally. I wish there was a way to disable "shift+~" and just use "~". The console is important!
enDless_Deliriu Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 probably because the ~ is the secondary function of the ` key. So like with capital letters, and the symbols on your numbers you have to hit shift first so they keyboard knows you are sending ~ and not `. I apologize for the lack of grammatical commas and the like. Also, as was said, it's a way to make sure you don't accidentally bring up the console. my problem is I have shift bound for challenging to duels. So I open console and I challenge someone to a duel in one go.
Amorpheus Posted April 3, 2002 Posted April 3, 2002 I like it, and Joe User who has no idea what it is shouldn't stumble over it in the first place.
GonkH8er Posted April 4, 2002 Posted April 4, 2002 Oh the amount of times I've gone for my primary weapon in CS and accidetely hit console and died shortly after is astounding. I'm glad it is what it is.... Hoorah for Shift Tilde
