joe-ilya Posted August 3, 2014 How do I change the controls of vanilla doom without the setup?(I don't have the setup) I open a .txt file called "DEFAULT" or "MOUSE" and see numbers near each action (ex: key_strafeleft 51) What are the numbers for the WASD keys? 0 Share this post Link to post
Blastfrog Posted August 3, 2014 Not sure how relevant this is, but I found this: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/AS2LCR/Flash_10.0/00000520.html That's for US keyboards AFAIK, but I'd imagine also applies to Hebrew keyboards (given that I recall you mentioning that you're in Israel). I hope this helps. 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted August 3, 2014 I believe it's okay to distribute SETUP.EXE (it even comes with the shareware version?), ban me if you think I'm wrong: http://speedy.sh/wKaS6/SETUP.zip 0 Share this post Link to post
joe-ilya Posted August 3, 2014 @Sodaholic I already tried the site, but it's wrong. Can anybody just copy the numbers from their "DEFAULT" or "MOUSE" as if it's using the WASD keys? @Memfis I can't use it now, I have to be an admin and that happens rarely. But yeah, copy your "DEFAULT" or "MOUSE" if you use the WASD keys. 0 Share this post Link to post
Blastfrog Posted August 3, 2014 Here's my WASD setup in my Chocolate Doom config: key_up 17 key_down 31 key_strafeleft 30 key_straferight 32 If not, do any of these help? http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa299374%28v=vs.60%29.aspx http://www.cambiaresearch.com/articles/15/javascript-char-codes-key-codes These regard Hebrew keyboards and thus may be more relevant: http://www.ascii-codes.com/cp862.html http://symbolcodes.tlt.psu.edu/bylanguage/hebrewchart.html joe-ilya said:@Memfis I can't use it now, I have to be an admin and that happens rarely.I presume you're trying to run it as a Windows program? More recent versions of Windows seem to automatically assume that anything titled "setup.exe" is a system-level installation utility that should go through UAC (user account control, not the Union Aerospace Corporation :P). If you've got DOSBox, you should be able to run it just fine in there; it's just the config tool since you couldn't alter your config in-game like in later id games or fan-made source ports. 0 Share this post Link to post

Totally forgot that chocolate doom has the DEFAULT.txt too. And I forgot that I should run SETUP.EXE by DOSbox, not independently. Well, my question has been answered and solved, I'll lock this thread if you have nothing to add to it. 0 Share this post Link to post

myk Posted August 3, 2014 Boom includes an app called keycode.exe which prints the corresponding number on the screen when you hit each key. I've often used it as reference since I like to edit default.cfg instead of going into Setup. 0 Share this post Link to post

You don't need to be admin to run setup.exe. That's probably just Windows being stupid because lots of install programs are named "setup.exe". You should be able to override the escalation somehow. My best advice would be to run it in dosbox. Trying to run old DOS programs on modern Windows is pretty hopeless. You could also use the Chocolate Doom setup tool which of course edits and saves the same file format (default.cfg) 0 Share this post Link to post

Will it help to simply rename the file to something different than "setup.exe"? 0 Share this post Link to post
