[BUSHI] Odo_Toothless Players 5,402 posts 24,784 battles Report post #2 Posted March 30, 2017 PageUP and PageDown are not working now for zoom. Changing the keys does not resolve the problem. So how can I zoom in/out without mouse wheel ? The very similar problem was in test version. Please fix it. At least say is it not working globally or only for me ? (some are reporting that problem too) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skyllon Players 2,588 posts Report post #3 Posted March 30, 2017 Hate quoting myself, but unless IDS_strings are meant to appear in game, it hasn't been fixed. 1. DescriptionTexts under ammo type, in battle screen, overlap each other when alternative mouse buttons are selected.2. Reproduction stepsUnder settings, redefine keys corresponding to HE and AP as Mouse Buttons 3 and 4 (my case)3. ResultText under ammo type in battle reads IDS_KEY_MOUSE3, IDS_KEY_MOUSE44. Expected resultAs in the case of MMB (Middle Mouse Button) abbreviation such as MB3, MB4 should be used. 5. Technical detailsnone 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[STARS] RedOnly Players 733 posts Report post #4 Posted March 30, 2017 HUGE PROBLEM Control keys "right Shift" or "right Ctrl" don't work but it was fixed in the PT 0.6.3 last update. So why in the current still? Also it does NOT distinguish between right and left controls, so if you set up "right Shift" in reality both Shift are taken eliminating the usual Shift zoom function. I just lost a battle easily, trying to fix on the go but it didn't work... Tried to set up left rudder "right ctrl" but it took all ctrl and couldn't Ctrl clik on planes or targets to prioritize them. Please fix it quickly! Thank you! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
grandaduk Players 6 posts 4,536 battles Report post #5 Posted March 30, 2017 I had my own command_mapping_config.xml which I just placed in the mods folder each update. If I place it in the mods folder now the game will not even boot up. As a left handed user the normal mapping are just no go for me. please sort as setting the keys every time I play is so dam annoying Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[OCTO] Zen71_sniper [OCTO] Players 1,268 posts 36,626 battles Report post #6 Posted March 30, 2017 I have mapped SPACE to Artillery View, but responsiveness is erratic. Sometimes there is a noticeable delay in switching between the views and on few occasions I had to click twice in the middle of the battle. Something is wrong there.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a left handed user the normal mapping are just no go for me. please sort as setting the keys every time I play is so dam annoying Old command_mapping_config.xml is not working. You must edit a newest version (can be unpacked from /res_packages directory), but now you can assign any key to all avaiable options (not checked myself) in game itself, without former "save" problem.

It was the problem of the first 6.3 version in the Public Test, but then was fixed 2 days later with an update.... somebody took the first release by mistake to make it official I guess. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DeletedUser Players 0 posts Report post #12 Posted March 30, 2017 Having Serval Issues with Serval Keys and KeyBindings... wont work as it should be, sometimes i cant even Press ESC because it doesnt react -> so i cant even Control my Settings. There are Issues with ALT and CRTL Page up and Down. Some of them just makes your Games just unplayable, im not rly sure about that "Improvement" but why WG dont let it - as it works? Let it still like it works for about 2 Years since Closed Beta for me... rly disapointed 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[MUTTS] Muinighin Players 1 post 16,852 battles Report post #14 Posted March 30, 2017 One of the problems I have is that my middle mouse button now fires my guns and follows the shells with the camera. Middle button is my push-to-talk. Really annoying! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Corvi Beta Tester, In AlfaTesters 1,147 posts 16,279 battles Report post #16 Posted March 31, 2017 Its nice to let us map more keys but its redundant if the consumables are still in different slots throughout different ships .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes - this REALLY gets on my tits. How difficult would it be to make the same key do the same thing on different ships?

OK, you didn't make it this time with 6.3.1 updt: fixing the Right Shift or Right Ctrl or whatever key wasn't working anymore. So, when you'll post a small update that will fix this VERY IMPORTANT thing? You know, small thing, very often make the difference...!! Thank you! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[BEWBS] renelm Players 12 posts 24,177 battles Report post #20 Posted April 1, 2017 I have the same problem. I have mapped right clic for artillery view and there is latency since patch 0.6.3 :/ I was wondering if my keyboard was going bad, since it seems I have to press the default key (left shift) multiple times to toggle artillery view after this latest upgrade. Glad yo see it's not only me.. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferry_25 Players 4,392 posts 12,107 battles Report post #21 Posted April 3, 2017 Though I'm not celbrating just yet... It seems like Wow's is FINALLY saving my personal key settings again! This has been bugging me since .2-ish update: every session having to reset my own settings again. Y'day (after 2 week break) I started my client again. Made the mistake of clicking the "funny sub" so I had to restart a couple of times. I was shocked the keys were saved though! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
[TOXIC] ThePurpleSmurf Players 2,554 posts Report post #22 Posted April 8, 2017 Request Please add the option to assign a hotkey for 'lock bearing'.

Admiral_Chunder Players 178 posts 13,956 battles Report post #25 Posted April 14, 2017 I hate the new behavour when switching from torpedoes back to guns. If I was firing HE then press 3 to launch torps, if I then press 2 I want to go back to guns with AP not f'ing HE! This has messed me up uncountable times since this update, Please give us the option to switch back to the old behavour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
