| Changing key/control mapping |
|
|
|
Some of the short cuts don't work so well for me. So I wanted to changed them. I found that from the log-in screen and player selection screen I can go to settings, and then control. But everything is grayed out! I can't change anything. What am I doing wrong?
Also, it there a way to add another control-bar in game? I now struggle with 1-10 for melee and alt 1-10 for my bow. And at level 14 I have already run out of space. There is the second small bar, but those don't seem to have key shortcuts, do they?

For some reason, you have to be in-game (as in loaded a toon) to change any key-binds.
Under the option HUD, you can add 2 additional Hotbars, which you can shpae and size and rotate.
You can also turn off and on several other HUD/UI elements. I turned off my shield display and turned on full version of the combat Rose. I like that much better.

I don't use blocking or combat rose atm lol >.>
I just want them to release the API so real modding can start... people going through the data files have alreayd found what they can use for a threat meter and damage meter like in WoW... kinda scary... epeen meters ftl, threat I don't mind so much but still.
On topic again... I find it easier to just click, but thats me I guess, to many games where I've gotten used to clicking.

I found it's easier (i.e. less error warnings) to place the 'new' keybindings in the right-hand column when you're changing stuff. I kept getting a "that key is reserved" nag message when I didn't.
There are a few UI mods out now (aoc.curse.com) that offer extended/additional bars as well. I don't totally like the look of them, so I'm working on my own customized UI too, but it's slow going. Lots of good stuff to find about those, macros, etc. in the UI Customization/Mod forums (US). Not sure if there's a European one...I hiope there is, though! :) I had to PM famine to get this one going.
I did however post my first guide on those forums if any of you altoholics need different keybinds for your different toons: character-specific keybinding.

Nice work Cali.
A shame that us Europeans won't be able to see your guide.
My Forum account only works on the EU Forums.

Really :( Maybe you could be so kind to post it here as well. I think I have figured out the best layout for my ranger, but I am curious to what you think is the best way to do it.
