chiles4 Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 I just reinstalled GR after a long break and I can't stand the default key assignments. I try to go prone instantly to keep from head from getting blown off and I end up reloading or with a map stuck on my screen. I added the "R" key for reload but the "Z" key stays. How do I get rid of the "Z" key assignment so I don't get "undesireable behavior" in emergency situations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombat50 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I have always had the same issue. I have tried to unmap the default key when I use something else but no luck. I'll check the manual... rats just reinstalled XP and don't have adobe reader. I'll report back if I find anything in the manual. Edit: From the manual Already Taken If you remap a function to a key that’s already assigned, the new assignment will override the old one. As soon as you remap the key, the function that key was previously attached to will be unattached, and will have a blank space next to it in the list. You’ll want to remap a key for that function as well, if you intend to use it in the game. Clear as mud me thinks. I never get that blank space for the old key. Maybe if the old key was given a new assignment it would eliminate the double entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiles4 Posted June 26, 2008 Author Share Posted June 26, 2008 Hey Wombat, I figured it out. Navigate to C:\Program Files\Red Storm Entertainment\Ghost Recon\Data\Save\game and open the file defplayr.keys with Notepad. It appears like a bunch of XML for bound keys. To switch from 'Z' or 'R' for reload to only 'R', change this line: <bind action = "change_magazine" key1 = "key_z" key2 = "key_r"/> to this line: <bind action = "change_magazine" key1 = "key_r" key2 = ""/> Save the file and poof!...your only reload key is now 'R'. BTW, my example refers to how I have the Reload keys defined. The key here is that key1 represents the first key assignment for that function and key2 represents the alternate key assignment for that function. Put the key you want to use in the key1 stuff and you can leave key2 as null (""). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wombat50 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Good job on figuring it out chiles. I never would have thought of that but it is simple enough even I could do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
