Can't change keyboard controls!

Post by thompson9100 »

Hi

After a huge catastrophic system failure, I've had to start from scratch with MSTS and yes, I didn't back up anything (how annoyed am I?!).

I've hit a problem though. Have MSTS Bin 1.7.051922 installed, and the screens and widgets (running on XP Home), along with default routes plus Cambrian Coast and ECE part 1.

My problem is that I've reconfigured the keys on steam and diesel to use numpad / and * for engine breaks, and numpad + and - for train brake. These are fine, but can I get electric to change? Can I heck! I've even tried writing it up in the electric.txt file in GLOBAL folder and using the IOMCONVERTER, but even that hasn't done it.

I'm ok using the usual keys (if I can remember which they are) but I've always reset my keys to this, and find it eminently more comfortable and relaxed, especially for those long shifts.

Anyone offer some advice please?! :-?

Thanks, Dan

Dear Dan

Please use the original MSTS Keys while gaming. And if Possible, use Windows XP Professional Edition for better running of Microsoft Train Simulator. And you put the RAM memory to minimum 1 GB.

regards
Sree...
