Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to check to see if this was my own personal issue of if everyone is suffering. I can't get any keyboard commands except the most simple ones to work. So, for instance, infantry step forward/backward doesn't work, changing formations by the keyboard also doesn't work. Camera control seems fine with mouse or keyboard but fine detail of formations doesn't. It all works fine if I use the in game buttons on the panel though.

Anyone?

Regards, M.

Sorry, I'm not able to help here, I use the keyboard as little as possible....about the only keyboard "keys" I use are R for run....and ......hmm...I think that's about it.....I use the mouse and the on screen "buttons" for everything else.

I do use the keyboard for camera control, with the up, down, left and right arrows with my left hand....with the right hand controlling the mouse. I find this works very well, giving full camera control with hardly ever having to move my left hand away from the U, D L and R keys.

I'm really old fashioned I know. I tend to use the keyboard for almost all commands and only use the mouse to 'mouse look' about the field and do normal stuff like choose which enemy to shoot at.

Anyway, I 'fixed' it by deleting my preferences file which then got recreated and it all works now. Certainly does make the game a bit easier to control.

Now, I've just got to change things so that they work more or less the same as NTW2 and I'll be really happy :)

M.
