Controls for Profile creation

Post by Dace »

Hey guys,

I want to setup a profile with my CH controllers, Yes I read the posts and yes the controls are very simply laid out, however I am a bit of a control setup freak, So I wanna do my own setup :-)

I was wondering if there is a list of controls for the game somewhere that I can copy to start setting up a command file. A simple text file or html table with control name and keyboard input would be great.

I have done a bit of googling and a bit of documentation hunting, but I couldent seem to find one.

In the mean time im gonna start Alt tab typing out a list of my own, but obviously if there is one in documentation somewhere or sombody here has already done one that would be preferable.

I wanna setup some funcky throttle position afterburner and IDS switching maddness, and then post the profile up on the CH-Hanger forums, I have found some great games by checking out availble profiles and id like to return the favour.

So yeah, Let me get back to messing arround, and again. Thanks for a truly awesome game.

Hello and welcome.

A menu list of the key and button controls is available in the Options menu then click on configure controls, then click on configure key and button controls. There are two pages of control descriptions and the keys/buttons assigned to them. Press Print Screen to copy the image to memory, then paste it in your favorite image editor. Do that for both pages and you can print out the current configuration your using, so if you change it, this could come in handy. A default list of the key controls is available in the instructions (main menu > View Insrtructions), click on the link near the top to view the keyboard quick referencei mage. You can print that for a list of default controls.

That is it indeed, Thanks for the quick reply.

I dont really need it as a referance. The CH Controller profiling software uses a "cmc" file with a list of controlls. This lets you do a "select button -> select command" type ofr interface to setup your controls to use the defaults from the game.

This makes the more complex multiple function per key stuff a lot simpler to learn. Since your trigger doesent say command "Control" it says "Fire Gun" and that gets translated by the profiler into Ctrl.

Dont know if anybody other than me from here will be using this, but I figured I'd post it anyway, in case somebody else needed there in an actual text file.

I have seperated the main and "alt" controls where aplicable and some of the keys use special names for use with the CH profiling software. They should be fairly obvious for what they are however.

So there you go.

Sorry for whomever downloaded that file.... If you try to use it in the CH Control Manager its gonna moan a bit.

This is the fixed one I am actually using in my Evochron Renegades Map
