Title: Unable to Keyboard Map
Post by: Darkdiz on January 31, 2012, 05:56:16 PM

Hi:
When I try and remap Control Modes 1-4 to ALT 1-4 respectively, the SHF/CTL/ALT keys disappear on the virtual keyboard under Options, Controls/Map Keys.  I ended up remapping these functions to the normal 1-4 keys (default map is for aircraft position jump), and then remapped the position jump to the ALT 1-4.
Is this by design?  ALT 1-4 was not mapped previously, and I use the different modes to change joystick button assignments, depending on which flight regime I am in.  The first screenshot shows the virtual keyboard WITH the SHF/CTL/ALT keys available.  The second is when they are not, with a Control Mode selected.

Any suggestions?

you have to save screen shots from the Aces High folder on ur C drive to your pictures in Jpeg format.  Then get an account on a photo hosting site like photobucket, etc.  Load and save ur pics to the site then copy the [img] code and paste into your reply.  Rmember to use preview feature to make sure it looks the way you want before posting.

You can see there are no Shift, Control or Alternate keys avail.  Not sure why?

I the patch we released you should now be able to map them. But ALT F4 would not be available.

I actually have it mapped as follows:

SHF F1-4 is visibility
CTL F1-4 is not mapped
ALT F1-4 is not mapped
CTL 1-4 jump aircraft in formation
ALT 1-4 is control modes
1-9 is jump aircraft positions

Once again, thx for taking the time :)
