My first day with DromEd - keyboard problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.thief-dark-project (More info?)

Hi. Today I'll have my first try on making a level for T2. I've installed
the game, the patch (t2patch107_118.exe) and DromEd. I'm following the
instructions that came with the disk.
But as I try to use the command line I run into problems. It seams my
keyboard has the wrong layout: Instead of "_" I get "?" The number and lette
keys are in place, but the rest (and their shift-altenatives) are all wrong.
A google search didn't help.
What to do, what to do. Anyone?

Johan

If you don't get your answer here, go post it the Editor's Guild at TTLG.
There are people all over the world there that use Dromed so I'm sure one of
them could help you out. Here's a link to the forum:

Yeah, what the lady said. Wouldn't hurt to sign up so you can
log in and ask questions. I've used the search engine a lot
to get answers to some of the things I wasn't sure about.
Komeg has a better tuitorial than TTLG put out. Least it's more
in English than Tech. Also, Komeg's menu works better than
the orig. I use Yando's since it breaks the textures a bit better.

DromEd probably has limited its keyboard support to the English key
layout, which is different to the Danish setup you probably use If you
switch your keyboard layout to English in Windows, open a text editor
and type a bit, you'll learn the differences by rote in notime.

Never mind. A friend told me, that it was probably because DromEd is a
developement tool for the game creators, sent out as is. Normally programs
are able to work with non US keyboards, but I guess they didn't bother as
the game was the important part.
Guess I'll just have to search for the needed symbols one key at a time. Oh
well.

Thanks for the answers. My newsgroup server must be behind, your messages
only just showed up here, and Nightwalkers haven't even shown up yet. But
thanks, I'll try it, and hope to create something worth wile.
