Bronzie Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Well I'm a complete n00b at FPS games and I am going to be getting Jedi Knight 2 on Friday. I love the trial and I love fast combat mode because quick is k00l. Anyway, I was wondering what the expert players had to say about a good control set for quick use of the Force Powers etc. Thanks in advance for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-[MotU]-Lyger|=- Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 i have left click primary attack, right click is lightsaber, 1-6 are: 1- Lightsaber 2-Push 3-Pull 4-Speed 5-Heal 6-Mind trick q- binded say w- forward e- activate r- grip t- lightning a- right s- down d- left f- absorb g- heal z- bind say x- bind say c- crouch v- bind say b- screen shot h - /taunt j - /sit k - duel request y - say u - team say i - privet say o - /sit p - /dance1 those are my controls, so force and movement are with the right hand and attacking and saber is with the left hand. hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazyplaya73 Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 LOL. I'm a freak with my keyset but I think its the best. s, spacebar, a, d - forward, back, moveleft, moveright alt, right mouse, left mouse - crouch, jump, primary attack mousewheelup, mousewheeldown - dualblade (jedimod), saber stance 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 - taunt 1, taunt 2, ... taunt 5 (jedimod) F1 to F12 - jedimod emotes q, w - forcespeed, force seeing ctrl, shift, caps, tab - pull, push, drain, use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luc Solar Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 First of all: Dark Begger, You're a freak! Seriously, you are! "mouse 2 - forward"??! Okay, here's mine (needless to say that it is the best possible solution): I use the numpad to move around >> buttons 5, 8, 4, 6. Around the numpad I have bound all the forces and secondary attack. I use mouse 2 to jump/kick. Every button I need is right there AND this way my wrists are in an ergonomic position >>> I push the keyboards left side forward, so that my "control center" is shaped like a " \/ " . So this is it - the secret why I totally pWn j00 4ll! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Begger Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 heheh, YES! mouse 2 is forward!!! eat it!!! lol..actually mine are pretty easy to use...with your index finger on b, and middle nad ring finger on d and f, and pinky on z...it fits over the key board quite nicely and comforably, almost like you're typing on a key board position. Then the mouse controls all the 'vital' motions, as in moving, turning, attacking, weapons switching. It's all there so your left hand can have an easy job just by clicking the other buttons. hehehehe.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lok-on Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Holy crap u guys r nuts!!! but much respect goes out to u cause i can never handle those keys! my controls r alomost like the default ones except: Tab= item next Q= item use Mousewheelup and down=force powers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Begger Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 mousewheel up/down is too slow for me, it takes too long to access the force power. most people stay away from that because buttons are so much quicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryudom Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 i love my controls: w,s,a,d = forward, back, strafe left, strafe right c = cl_run ! space = crouch shift= jump z,x = seeing, absorb q,e,r = pull, push, protect mouse weel up/down = force powers up down f -= use force power mouse 3 = lightsaber alt = use key and a bunch of other binds + the default keys but thats the core Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sith Maximus Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I use a Nostromo controller myself. That way my keyboard is open for things like taunts and emotes. If you have not tried one of these do so. Way faster than a keyboard. On the keypad I have lightning, grip, drain, move l/r/f/b, taunt, saberthrow, push, pull, crouch. My mouse is mwup = saberattackcycle mouse1=attack mouse2=jump mwheeldown=attack (for saber locks). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zworqy Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 Originally posted by Dark Begger g - push/lightning r - mindtrick/grip x - rage/protection Man, you have TWO forces on ONE key? confused:confused: How'd you do that? How does it work? You can't use them simultaneously, can you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Begger Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 if you have mind trick, you won't have grip if you have protection, you won't have rage. if I have lightning, I don't use push. I'm usually a light sider ,so I don't use dark sides that much..but that's how I have it set up as Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psionic Jedi Posted August 13, 2002 Share Posted August 13, 2002 I have near standard Half-life controls, but of course the force empowerment of JK2 requires a little extra tweaking in regards to key set. WASD for movement... Q - prev weapon 1-0: default weapons Z/X - prev/next force power C - Saber cycle R - Taunt T - Saber challenge G - Heal (for JvM games) Ctrl instead of C for crouch Mousewheelup/down - Push and Pull Alt (my thumbside mouse button) - Absorb yeah so what my Keyset is boring Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mero Vilul Posted August 16, 2002 Share Posted August 16, 2002 Keyboard configs are very personal, and many people prefer a lot different settings than others. one popular seem to be w,s,a,d for forward, back, left & right, but I always gone with r,f,d,g (forw,back, left, right) because it leaves me with the keys q,a,z,w,s,x,e EASILY reach by my,... well, english aint't my primary launguage, but the smallest finger reach most of those keys easily, with some help of the finger next to the smallest finger... and on my right side I have space,alt,t,y,b,h,y,n, very easily to reach by my thumb(knew the name of the thumb at least) and the finger I point with... the finger used for doing that ugly gesture against someone I use only on the key R and on the number keys 4 & 5... You see I got a lot of keys easily reached, but I've used these keys since Quake1... And I got a lot of keys I can reach by taking a 0.5 second extra to reach, but those I use mostly for bind sayings... the bottom line is: Take the keys you feel comfortable with, but make sure you got a lot of spare keys around those... not the usual up,down,left,right as movement keys, because there are really few keys you can reach easily from there (if you don't have a really big or fast hand)... Remember, know you may use 20 or so keys, but in 1 years? maybe 30... so instead of moving the keys later, plan them carefully now... you're just starting to bloom =) Take care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, thanks for your input. I have rewieved all the candidates, and I must say that the decision was fairly easy. Luc Solar's keyset is by far the most intuitive. Dark Begger gets the second prize, 'cause he has to be damn good at this game if he is able to play with a freak-ass setup like this; (mouse 2 - forward mosue 1 - fire b - back d - strafe left f - strafe right z - jump shift - crouch v - light saber styles space - saber throw g - push/lightning r - mindtrick/grip x - rage/protection The rest of you...well...good luck to you all, maybe next time...

Beefotron X Posted August 18, 2002 Share Posted August 18, 2002 Eh, I use my joystick and mouse. I've been doing better in games since I got my joystick. Mouse-look Mouse1 (and joystic trigger) - Fire Mouse2 (and joy3) Alt. Fire I should probably work out something less redundant for the fire buttons, but I haven't bothered yet. Mouse3= Use Force , and . = switch force [ and ] = switch inv numpad + = bound to set my force buttons for light powers numpad - = bound to set my force buttons for dark powers num / = vote no num * = vote yes numpad enter = taunt Joystick: Forward, back, strafe left/right Twist left: change stance twist right: switch to lightsaber Buttons on top of the stick Button 1= jump button 2= crouch button 3= alt fire button 4 = walk hat switch up= push down=pull left= heal or drain right=absorb or lightning Buttons at the base of the stick Button 5= bacta button 6= use inv button 7= use button 8 =duel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
