remapping "E" key ?

[drednox]

OK

 

I am used to a very particular way of playing and mapping my keys all way back from the original DOOM. I desperately need to remap the "E" key, the one that is used to open all the doors and stuff.

 

Problem: I cant find it anywhere in teh setup options. I did the "Reset to defaults" a large number of times, went to setup, went to controls, and checked ALL categories for "E". Its not in there. I dont even know what that "E" stands for, cause its nowhere in the setup.

 

So how do I remap this ? Is there anyway to do it using command line, or ini files or something ? Can anyone help ? Please let me know some specific info, right down to the syntax.

 

 

Thanks

I'm SURE there is a use bind in the options/controls somewhere, since I have remapped it to my G key. If you can't find it simply type in the console 'bind x +use' where x is any key u want

Hi,

 

open the file jk2config.cfg (Singleplayer) and jk2mpconfig.cgf (multiplayer).

 

in the begining there are lots of "Bind" commandos, they bind a command to a key.

Example:

 

bind e "+use"

 

means key "e" gets the function "use".

 

Hope that helps...

All that looking and somehow you missed it my friend

 

The "Use" button is found in the attack section of the controls setup.

 

I changed mine from E to SPACEBAR.

 

And yes, you can also change things in the console.....

 

\bind KEY_NAME_HERE "+use"

 

Good luck!

Open up the console with shift+~

The console is a very strong way to customize u'r game..

If u wanna bind an action to a key, do as the following:

 

\bind e "+use"

 

(that's binding E to open doors)

 

or \quit to quit the game fast

or \model kyle to change to the kyle model

cg_drawfps 1 to show the current frames per second rate

and so on..

 

u can press TAB to have it give u a list of commands starting with a letter or some letters.

Disclaimer for Win2000 (dont know about other os's): open this in WORDPAD and not Notepad or the text will be weird from the formatting.

Oddly enough I had that exact same problem. It took me 5 minutes to find.

 

Of course I was drunk at the time as well so......

Changing it through console (or the cfg file) is all fine and dandy, but what's wrong with simply changing it under the controls menu?
