customize NGE keymap settings to mimic old ones






 


 


 



First, open up your options window, then hit the Keymap Button.

You'll find that there are ## tabs, each with sets of controls under them.

Step 1: Keymap Settings

Underneath all the commands is another frame with a dropdown box and some checkboxes. Since TC doesn't have any other standard keymaps, we'll have to leave it as it is, and modify it manually.
The options you want are:

X Mouse Pointer Mode Default
0 Enable modal chat (pressing a key to use chat)
0 Chase Camera Mode
0 Turn Strafes when Mouselook Enabled (EQ Style)

Step 2: Character tab


Looking down this list, you'll see that a lot of the commands are bound to keys, like WASD. First task is to clear those bindings. Select each of them individually and press the Clear Binding button.

The keys you want set up are:

Autorun Toggle : NUMLOCK
Momentary Run/Walk Toggle : SHIFT, SHIFT (you will have to hit rebind twice to bind the left and right shift buttons
Toggle Light : Ctrl+L

Walk Back : DOWN
Walk Forward : UP
Walk Left : LEFT
Walk Right : RIGHT
Walk Toward Cursor : MOUSEBUTTON2 (Doesn't work, can't unbind special fire) If you have a multi-button mouse, use MOUSEBUTTON4



Step 3: Target Tab
The main issues in this tab are the group targeting options
The keys you want set up are:
Target Group Member 1 : Ctrl+2
Target Group Member 2 : Ctrl+3
Target Group Member 3 : Ctrl+4
Target Group Member 4 : Ctrl+5
Target Group Member 5 : Ctrl+6
Target Group Member 6 : Ctrl+7
Target Group Member 7 : Ctrl+8
Target Self : Ctrl+1

Not default, but handy:
Examine Target : Ctrl+X
Step 3: Chat tab

Start Chat Group : Ctrl+G
Start Chat Reply : Ctrl+R
Start Chat Tell : Ctrl+T
These aren't set as Default for live, but I thought I'd bring it up here:
Chat edit Copy : Shift+Ctrl+C
Chat edit Cut : Shift+Ctrl+X
Chat edit Paste : Shift+Ctrl+V
Step 4: UI Tab
Abilities * Commands : Ctrl+A
Character Sheet : Ctrl+C
Community : Ctrl+P
Datapad : Ctrl+D
Holocron : Ctrl+H
Inventory : Ctrl+I
Mail : Ctrl+E
Options : Ctrl+O
Planetary Map : Ctrl+V
Quest Journal : Ctrl+J
Radar Map : Ctrl+M
Toggle Object Names : Ctrl+N

Toolbar Slot 1 : F1
Toolbar Slot 2 : F2
Toolbar Slot 3 : F3
Toolbar Slot 4 : F4
Toolbar Slot 5 : F5
Toolbar Slot 6 : F6
Toolbar Slot 7 : F7
Toolbar Slot 8 : F8
Toolbar Slot 9 : F9
Toolbar Slot 10 : F10
Toolbar Slot 11 : F11
Toolbar Slot 12 : F12

Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 1 : Shift+F1
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 2 : Shift+F2
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 3 : Shift+F3
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 4 : Shift+F4
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 5 : Shift+F5
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 6 : Shift+F6
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 7 : Shift+F7
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 8 : Shift+F8
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 9 : Shift+F9
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 10 : Shift+F10
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 11 : Shift+F11
Toolbar Bank 2 Slot 12 : Shift+F12


Step 5: Options
Now close the keymap window, and select the Interface Button.
6 check-boxes down, select X Allow Overhead Map Rotation
Select the Controls Button
Find the Game Mouse Dead Zone, and increase it to about 25%, the green box on your screen will show you how far your mouse will roam before turning your viewpoint
