Unresponsive Keys Fix (TESTED ONLY FOR 1.3ta5)

I have found a fix for the unresponsive Keys, Some people, like me are not able to use the CMD line or rotate buildings because they have software that uses this key " ~ " or " ` ", and does not share the keys with Battlezone II. So instead of trying to stop the software, there is another way. To use the CMD line, just extract this file to your Battlezone II 1.3ta5 directory. This works by replacing the " ~ " or " ` " key with the "F11" key, instead of pressing "CTRL ~" you would press "CTRL F11"

NOTE: this replaces the "LocalPrefs" file located in "Battlezone II 1.3ta5\addon\config". If you have anything modified in this file, you must redo it in the new "LocalPrefs" file.

This only allows you to use the CMD line, it does not allow you to rotate buildings or split groups. To fix that problem, all you have to do is change something in the options, watch this video.

NOTE: this This fix may not work, depending on your software, if it doesn't, just email me at Dataanti@yahoo.ca and I will switch up the fix a bit.

I will be making the fix for versions for 1.3pb4a, 1.3pb3 and 1.2 and releasing them next Sunday.

FIX: GamePrefs is now LocalPrefs

ADDITION: 1.4pb4a version is pretty much the same, DL: http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?mtmodmvyjye

Editing gameprefs causes bad assets. Localprefs doesn't.

I didn't actually notice you said gameprefs first time...

Personally I don't mind if Dat edits his gameprefs, just don't have others do it too. :roll:

It's fixed, i was always told if you gonna make button changes, you can change them in the gameprefs. I never noticed the assets thing tho :/

If key-links caused bad assets, there's a strong likelihood that many people would get bad assets just from changing their controls.

It is the FILE VSMIT! The gameprefs.ini is asset checked.
