Natural Selection 2

[uv]

I'm a bit annoyed it won't let me change my push to talk button to Capslock in game don't like using Alt, I end up pressing windows button instead half the time

Get a keyboard like the x4 and x6 that lets you disable the winkey in games, or do what a friend did and remove the key entirely

It allows me to change to other keys but won't work for Capslock, which is annoying cause I'm so used to it, keep pressing it and talking then remembering no one is listening

I'm not at my pc at the moment, but take a look in

C:\Users\"Your username"\AppData\Roaming\Natural Selection 2 at the options.xml file. In there is a list of keys and what they are actually bound to. See if it says anything about caps lock in there perhaps and remap say "L" to caps lock, then bin "L" in game to voice?


or if running windows 7, try

you could create 2 reg files, one for enable, one disable and run disable before you play ns2, then enable it after

Loving this just had an hour long game where it was back and forth, but we eventually lost but it was really good fun.

Nope nothing to do with keys there.

Seems like a lot of trouble, I'm sure I'll get used to it eventually just gonna take a while .

Need to practice with Aliens, I never seem to do well as them, find it so hard to kill people as Skulks, but when I'm Marines they normally tear me a new 1 1v1. Guess I'm just bad haha

Learn to dodge and dive

Build up speed by jumping from height, and use the walls and ceiling as much as possible. Remember, you are a skulk, so skulk around! Footsteps are very loud in this game, so hold shift to be silent.

Can anyone do me a random favor please....

Go in to the in game browser, and take a screenshot, then order by players and take another please?

 

[benny90125]

I can do, but I'm not quite sure what you mean

 

[A[L]C]

Launch Ns2, go to play... take a screenshot of the server list - save it
click players to order them, and take another

 

[benny90125]

ah ok, I'll do that now.

 

[dakaiez]

I just joined, not very good only played 2 games so far. Also not played the original in like 8 years.

Players lowest first

Sorry it took a while, couldn't find the buggers.

So whos up for a few rounds tonight? Say around 7ish, we can pick a random empty server to make sure we'll all get in!

 

[FrenchTart]

Well, the server seems to be holding up so far but I'll have to see how it deals with more players.

Sadly I can't play much tonight as I'm out but maybe I'll pop on later and drunkenly suck at the game even more than usual

 

[Xcept1]

Every server I join I get the red connection icon come up and I get timed out

 

[benny90125]

I get the red connection icon come up a lot as my connection is pretty weak, but haven't timed out once yet.

Also I should be about sometime tonight so I'll try pop on for a game or 2.

Sounds good. Hopefully I'll have admin enabled on my server by then so we can use mine or FrenchTart's if its free

Just bought this and waiting for it to download, quite looking forward to it.

I bought a four pack and am getting rid of the other 3 in the MM if anybody is looking.

This game is awesome, particle effects seem to rape my fps a bit though
