locoidal Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 Hi, My keyboard doesn't have the right CTRL key... is there any way to simulate this key...?? It will be a pain in the neck if i have to remap all the commands involved with the right CTRL :) P.S: I don't have a mac .. it is a windows machine Asus P6T deluxe V2 | I7 950@3.8 | 6 GB DDR3 (@1600 Tri-channel) 2x ATI 5850 (crossfire-->OFF) | Creative X-Fi | SSD OCZ Vertex 3 | OCZ ZX Series 1250W PSU | TrackIR 5 |
EtherealN Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 If you have another key to replace it with, you can open the Modifier list in the control settings, delete the RCtrl entry, then create a new entry with some other key - but crucially name that one "RCtrl". Now that key will be understood as the RCtrl modifier.

EtherealN Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 I use the same method since my BlackWidow doesn't have a right Windows key. :) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Daniel "EtherealN" Agorander | Даниэль "эфирныйн" Агорандер Intel i7 2600K @ 4.4GHz, ASUS Sabertooth P67, 8GB Corsair Vengeance @ 1600MHz, ASUS GTX 560Ti DirectCU II 1GB, Samsung 830series 512GB SSD, Corsair AX850w, two BENQ screens and TM HOTAS Warthog DCS: A-10C Warthog FAQ | DCS: P-51D FAQ | Remember to read the Forum Rules | | | Life of a Game Tester
locoidal Posted February 20, 2013 Author Posted February 20, 2013 mine is an old Sun type 5 keyboard ( http://deskthority.net/wiki/Sun_Type_5 ). It was taken from an old Sun server. It is wonderfull :) Asus P6T deluxe V2 | I7 950@3.8 | 6 GB DDR3 (@1600 Tri-channel) 2x ATI 5850 (crossfire-->OFF) | Creative X-Fi | SSD OCZ Vertex 3 | OCZ ZX Series 1250W PSU | TrackIR 5 |
Daniel M Posted February 20, 2013 Posted February 20, 2013 other key - but crucially name that one "RCtrl". Wish I would have known about that earlier!! I use an apc40+bomes midi translator to map shortcuts...unfortunetly BMT doesn't seem to map right vs left shift correctly, so I manually updated some combos...might have to revert and fix it this way.
BRooDJeRo Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Hmm, no right controll on a Black Widow? I was concidering buying one... I thought it was standard on every board for sale in my country. Learned something new just now. Weird, i just checked the website and it does have all keys.. Whats going on here? OOOW wait... you're most likely are using a Russian layout. Edited February 21, 2013 by BRooDJeRo
AceKng1 Posted February 21, 2013 Posted February 21, 2013 He said no right windows key on a black widow.

OOOW wait... you're most likely are using a Russian layout. Read my post again :). It has a right control. What it does not have is a right windows key. (Instead it has one function key for macros and such stuff as well as some sort of fancy option key - for example, pressing it in this text window does the same as right-clicking with the mouse where the cursor is. But with that trick the lack of RWin doesn't hurt me in DCS and in windows/other games I don't exactly miss it.)
