Title: Hmm
Post by: Ornabas on August 11, 2003, 05:10:01 pm
Hi! as you can see I\'m a newb here and I wouldn\'t be a real noob without some noob questions would I? haha well I got the game working read the FAQ and other posts and it helped me alot thanks to the helpful community  :]. But I came across a little problem ingame. When I press on my \"/\" button in the chat it makes 2 \"/\" is that a bug? every time i want to use something like /me or /spawn i have to delete one (not such a big deal i know) but when I try to enable the mouse view, it doesn\'t work with the \"# and \\\" button.   (Maybe I\'m doing something wrong but I\'m pressing that button! :rolleyes: ) but is there any way to enable it in a config file? And my 2nd (and last) question is how can I resize the chat window? I tried with the corners like in Windows but it didn\'t work. Case the default size isn\'t wide enought (1-2 letters dissapear at the extreme right). Thanks for your help!  :))  

EDIT: typos are killing me  :(

Nice sig, anyway you can resize the chat window by clicking & dragging in the lower right corner.  As for the cloning, I\'ve never heard of it happening to anyone else.  Btw, I never use mouselook so I forget which key it is, but I don\'t think it\'s working for you.

Ok thanks for the quick reply  :)  Does anyone know if I can enable mouselook in a config file and why I get 2 \"/\" when I press it once? thanks

Ahh, just played yesterday and tried the \"\\\" key.  Know what? It went to mouselook! :P Since noone else has reported these problems I\'d advise installing/dling the client again.

I\'d have to say he\'s one of the most polite newbies I\'ve seen.  Here\'s hoping we see more like him.

Hello, and welcome to our community!
The mouselook-button changes depending on which keyboard you have. My mouselook button is on the * button. Also. there is a file called \'keys\' in the PS-folder. You can use notepad to alter the buttons there :)

Ah thanks a lot! I changed it to \"l\" and now it works fine. The game seems smoother with mouseview  :)  I resized my chat window and for the clone\"/\" well I just use SHIFT + 3 now and it works (it\'s the one on my numpad that gives me 2 of them) so everything works  now and I can fully enjoy Planeshift :tup:  Thnaks to you guys without you the game is nothing. It\'s the community that makes an online game like this one fun or not. Thanks again :]
