Ramstein Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 (edited) In BS, which Key do you use for TeamSpeak (other other chat program)? I use they 'Scroll Key' for my TeamSpeak in Black Shark. I just wondered, it appears sometimes using a key may affect commands, and the key I chose does not seem to hurt any other command functions in BS. :joystick: Edited May 10, 2010 by Ramstein ASUS Strix Z790-H, i9-13900, WartHog HOTAS and MFG Crosswind G.Skill 64 GB Ram, 2TB SSD EVGA Nvidia RTX 2080-TI (trying to hang on for a bit longer) 55" Sony OLED TV, Oculus VR
igormk Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 Smart thinking Ramstein. I'm using CapsLock, which doesn't interrupt anything, but when I communicate via both TS and in game chat, you can see me writing one sentence with small letters, and the other with caps on. So, if it's not copyrighted by you I will probably switch to Scroll key. ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Eddie Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 Scoll lock for flight comms, alt+scroll lock for package comms. I've always used that combination in any sim I've flown, never had a conflict issue yet.

Boulund Posted May 10, 2010 Posted May 10, 2010 I've also been using Caps Lock for years on end now. It is well suited since it is near the left-hand position on the keyboard and thus very reachable. I've been experimenting with other keys and actually tried scroll lock and while that works very well for simming, it does not work very well for regular voice-chatting with friends or fps/rts-type games. I always ended up reverting to caps lock all the time so I figure why even bother. People don't mind me typing all caps anymore anyway ;) Core i5-760 @ 3.6Ghz, 4GB DDR3, Geforce GTX470, Samsung SATA HDD, Dell UH2311H 1920x1080, Saitek X52 Pro., FreeTrack homemade cap w/ LifeCam VX-1000, Windows 7 Professional x64 SP1.

Sinner6 Posted May 11, 2010 Posted May 11, 2010 Since I have a HOTAS, the first thing I did was unbind the axis keys. This freed up the Z,X, and arrow keys for Comms and Track IR controls. 1

I've run out of keys for FRAPS, TS, TrackIR, so I think I'll go this route. My solution up until now was keypad / for TS.

ZQuickSilverZ Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 I have always used the middle mouse button. Though I used to play alot of first person shooters that were obviously mouse heavy. Now that I'm playing flight sims alot maybee I should rethink that stratagy since I have to look down and locate my mouse and take my hands off the stick. Many times I have crashed trying to voice chat............ I need, I need, I need... What about my wants? QuickSilver original. "Off with his job" Mr Burns on the Simpsons.

PedroTheGoat Posted May 13, 2010 Posted May 13, 2010 I just recently assigned it to button B on my X-52. Works well enough for me. I would like to use the "i" key on my throttle... But it won't allow me to assign it as a regular button. Booo.

But it won't allow me to assign it as a regular button. Booo. I have my 'i' key mapped on my x52Pro, you have to turn off 'clutch mode' by opening the control panel (right click on Saitek icon in taskbar) then on the MFD tab de-select 'Clutch mode' then you can assign it in programming software.
