Title: Manual??
Post by: Addy9 on October 07, 2019, 03:08:41 PM
There used to be a downloadable manual that listed all the dot commands keyboard Layout users manual etc. I found a keyboard Layout that I could print in a text file. I’ve searched throughout the page can’t seem to find it. Am I missing it or is it not available anymore

you could type .help in the text buffer and take screen shots. or you could go to https://www.hitechcreations.com/wiki/index.php/Dot_commands, but theres more in the text buffer.

also in the hitechcreations folder/hosthelp text file. see below for printed commands.

I don't recall a manual.

There have been some changes with AHIII.  Old key command charts will have a few errors.

If you use the DX11 version it can look nicer than DX9. Both versions ship together.

You'll notice air pressure affects propeller rpm now.

A lot of people use VR, they can't type in VR.

There is a WW1 arena with AI.

Most of the arenas are free to play now.

Thanks for the replies. I wasn’t expecting anyone to but a chart together, but thank you very much

Nice.

Also, every player has a built-in list of keyboard and controller commands in his setup folder. The nice thing about that is you can inspect for your custom differences and print the lists out for a notebook manual of your own.

Look in C:\Hitech Creations\Aces High III\settings\ (sort the window's detail list by extension type)

global.kmp
view.kmp
PLANE.kmp
global.kmp
GUNNER.kmp
CHUTE.kmp

Oculus controlers
VR_oculustouchleft.jsm
VR_oculustouchright.jsm
VR_mouse.jsm

CH Joystick
chfighterstickusb.jsm

You get the idea.

Plus you can always look at controller setup on the clipboard to see all the commands, even in flight.
Title: Re: Manual??
Post by: hitech on October 08, 2019, 11:45:18 AM
Or
Step 1 when in flight Click Help on the clip board
(https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=398131.0;attach=31884)
Step 2 Click List of key commands.
(https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=398131.0;attach=31886)
Step 3 View and scroll all control keys.
(https://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=398131.0;attach=31888)

Or simply do a .ckh (control key help) and it will open the window . Note this is not a fixed page but is generated based on your key map.

After performing either of the above look at the file in the Aces High II Folder "temp/controls.html" for a web page version Or click the B (browser button) when viewing the key commands and the page will open in your browser.

You have to use it in conjunction with the selfie stick.

Throw a back of cheezies into that mix, and you'll have some explainin' to do with either the misses or doctor as to why it turned orange.
