Azerty-Keyboard
« on: May 26, 2009, 01:56:13 PM »
Hi,

I'm in Europe and here we use Azerty keyboards.

The problem is that ingame the keyboard is Qwerty.
Which means none of the keys are similar, or not allot.
If I change them some respond and others don't change or don't respond at all.

I've already heard that the game scans the keyboard but so far not alot of luck...

So I'm wondering if there is a quick solution for this or no?
Or if other have had the same problem?

And if there are European members, can they post how they "bind" their keys?

An always easy solution is to pick up a QWERTY keyboard if all else fails. You would just need to adjust your computer to tell it what kind of keyboard you are using.

I don't think picking up a keyboard with a new layout is a very easy solution if you already know how to type.

Every once in a while my the game would switch from QWERTY to QWERTZ (German layout) on me, so I would assume it is possible to change the layout in game some how.

I have never seen a keyboard like that.  Seems only the Q, W, A, and Z keys are moved around.  W and Z swapped, Q and A swapped.   Different.

Are those 4 keys the only issue?  What does it do when you use them?  The rest of the keys look the same.

Punctuation/symbols are arranged differently as well.

Do the scan codes move with the keys?  If so, it should be no difference to the game then.  If the scan codes stay the same, then things would get a bit wonky.

You need a new keyboard or should pry the keys off and put them where they belong. Sometimes being different is not so good.
