Few Keybinding Questions

[51ay3r]

I've tried to set up UT3 with the same keybinds as I used in UT2k4, but I can't seem to get a few to work.

When I try to bind shock to Mouse4, then sniper to Mouse5 - it overwrites the shock binding and treats Mouse5 as the same button as Mouse4. I have a mx510 and I have never had this problem.

Also, is there any way to make tab bindable, and have it not open up chat? I can't count the number of times I try to reach for the impact hammer (or shield from habit :)) and stop dead typing awdadadwawwwwwas.

it's a beta. so far binds don't work as well as previous unreal games. i certainly hope that changes :2thumbs:

Not sure on the bind but you can have it stop opening the console.

1. Go to My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3 Demo\UTGame\Config\UTInput and open with notepad.

2. Scroll down and find the line TypeKey=Tab.

3. Change it to TypeKey=None then save.

I really hope keybind and keyboard setup in general gets fixed asap. They seemingly only added US english to the beta demo meaning that when i tried to enter my email i couldn't and had to copy paste it from notepad. Tab and @ open the console for me. :(

UK users. You will need to use ALT+64 to get the @ symbol when entering your email address in game

I found out about that after i had set it up my way. Still kinda stupid that they forgot about UK keyboard layouts.

Forget UK board layouts. They just really need to let us bind tab. I ALWAYS use tab for scoreboard. F1 is just too far away and awkward. Why not keep console at tilde, where it's been for a decade?

Because that would make sense :pissed:
Agree 100%

Noo please don't forget us. :D

ut3 is also in your my documents folder. Try looking there.

+1 I am having the same issue with my mx518.

The only way I've gotten around this mess is by utilizing Setpoint but will only help folks with the later Logitech mice. I'm using a G5 for now and have successfully bound all the buttons using Setpoint and either default game binds or just a few alterations to make the binds identical to 2k4.

[Rand{CLR}]

I'm not really sure what the issue is about. I've got a G5, and was able to bind the mouse 4 button with no problems. Course, I have it bound to Shock Rifle, which appears far less useful now than it was in UT2k4, but that's a gameplay issue, not a binding error. :wink:

Does your G5 have one or two thumb buttons? I think the newer ones have two but some others have only one. What happens with mine is that UT3 recognises both thumb buttons as number 4.

Ah. I've got the older one. I WISH I had the newer one, because it would be more like my old MX 510.

Ditto Rand....my mx510 was a much better overall mouse. I also have the single thumb button.

Duke, the issue you are having I also had and it's a Setpoint problem. First, go to logitech and get the latest version. Second, when setting it up, make sure on the button assignment section that the default (says "All other programs") make sure you change the buttons to Unassigned. Then make sure you have both UT2004 and UT3 added as programs. Then you should be able to assign the buttons the way you want. Occasionally, setpoint seems to "forget" key assignments and I have to put them back in but once I installed the latest version it hasn't happened. I can play both UT2k4 and UT3 with my custom binds and have no issues.

I haven't been running setpoint up until now when I get home I will try it out.

anyone know how to solve this issue for a Razer: death adder?
