File Description

This simple mod lets you bind any key on the keyboard, the mouse, or a joystick to perform the pause function, something the game itself doesn't allow.

File Instructions

How do I use EAWKey?

Just open up the EAWKey.ini to define your hotkeys, save the ini and start
EAWKey, thats it. EAWKey will start EAW automatically. If you exit EAW, EAWKey
will be exited automatically as well. However, to change the
EAWKey-Configuration you can just Alt-Tab out of the game and use the EAWKey
tray menu to make the changes.

The configuration of EAWKey is done by editing the file EAWKey.ini which can be
found in the EAWKey folder. The EAWKey.ini can be edited with any text-editor to
match your needs. A list of the key names used in the ini can be found at the
end of this file.
EAWKey must reload the ini for changes to take effect. This will be done
automatically if you have called "Edit Ini" from the EAWKey tray menu after you
saved your changes and closed the editor.

You can deactivate EAWKey also during EAW by pressing the appropriate hotkey.
The default key is Control-Tab.

And now I just wish you a lot of fun with Sacred and EAWKey :)


List of Keys and Mouse/Joystick Buttons to use in EAWKey.ini


ATTENTION:
Keys not listed in the following list, like ABCD ... or 1234 ..., are just
named like they appear on your keyboard.
Alt-Gr is not mappable!



Prefixes

For key combinations like "Alt A", "Control A", "Shift A" use these prefixes:
! Alt
^ Control
+ Shift

Examples:
for Alt-A use: !A
for Ctrl-Alt-A use: ^!A


Mouse (requires Windows NT/2000/XP or later)

LButton - the left mouse button
RButton - the right mouse button
MButton - the middle or wheel mouse button

WheelDown - this is equivalent to rotating the mouse wheel down (toward you)
WheelUp - the opposite of the above

Supported only in Windows 2000/XP or later:
XButton1 - a button that appears only on certain mice
XButton2 - a button that appears only on certain mice


Joystick

Joy1 through Joy32: The buttons of the joystick. To help determine the button
numbers for your joystick,
use this test script. Note that hotkey prefix symbols such as ^ (control) and +
(shift) are not
supported (though GetKeyState can be used as a substitute). Also note that the
pressing of joystick
buttons always "passes through" to the active window if that window is designed
to detect the pressing
of joystick buttons.

Although the following Joystick control names cannot be used as hotkeys, they
can be used with
GetKeyState:
JoyX, JoyY, and JoyZ: The X (horizontal), Y (vertical), and Z (altitude/depth)
axes of the joystick.
JoyR: The rudder or 4th axis of the joystick.
JoyU and JoyV: The 5th and 6th axes of the joystick.
JoyPOV: The point-of-view (hat) control.
JoyName: The name of the joystick or its driver.
JoyButtons: The number of buttons supported by the joystick (not always
accurate).
JoyAxes: The number of axes supported by the joystick.
JoyInfo: Provides a string consisting of zero or more of the following letters
to indicate the
joystick's capabilities: Z (has Z axis), R (has R axis), U (has U axis), V (has
V axis), P (has POV
control), D (the POV control has a limited number of discrete/distinct
settings), C (the POV control
is continous/fine). Example string: ZRUVPD

Multiple Joysticks: If the computer has more than one and you want to use one
beyond the first,
include the joystick number in front of the control name. For example, 2joy1 is
the second joystick's
first button.

Note: If you have trouble getting a script to recognize your joystick, one
person reported needing to
specify a joystick number other than 1 even though only a single joystick was
present. It is unclear
how this situation arises or whether it is normal, but experimenting with the
joystick number in the
joystick test script can help determine if this applies to your system.

Using Joystick as Mouse: This script converts a joystick into a mouse.


Keyboard

Note: The names of the letter and number keys are the same as that single
letter or digit.
For example: b is the "b" key and 5 is the "5" key.

Space - the spacebar
Tab
Enter (or Return)
Escape (or Esc)
Backspace (or BS)

Delete (or Del)
Insert (or Ins)
Home
End
PgUp
PgDn
Up
Down
Left
Right

ScrollLock
CapsLock
NumLock

NumpadDiv - the slash key
NumpadMult - the asterisk key
NumpadAdd - the plus key
NumpadSub - the minus key
NumpadEnter - the Enter key

The following keys are used when Numlock is OFF:
NumpadDel
NumpadIns
NumpadClear - same physical key as Numpad5 on most keyboards
NumpadUp
NumpadDown
NumpadLeft
NumpadRight
NumpadHome
NumpadEnd
NumpadPgUp
NumpadPgDn

The following keys are used when Numlock is ON:
Numpad0
Numpad1
Numpad2
Numpad3
Numpad4
Numpad5
Numpad6
Numpad7
Numpad8
Numpad9
NumpadDot - the decimal point (period) key

F1 through F24 - The 12 or more function keys at the top of most keyboards.

AppsKey - this is the key that invokes the right-click context menu.

LWin - the left windows key
RWin - the right windows key
Control (or Ctrl)
Alt
Shift

Note: For the most part, these next 6 keys are not supported by Windows
95/98/Me. Use the above
instead:
LControl (or LCtrl) - the left control key
RControl (or RCtrl) - the right control key
LShift
RShift
LAlt - the left Alt key
RAlt - Note: If your keyboard layout has AltGr instead of RAlt, you can
probably use it as a hotkey
prefix via <^>! as described here. In addition, "LControl & RAlt::" would make
AltGr itself into a
hotkey.

PrintScreen
CtrlBreak
Pause
Break

Help - this probably doesn't exist on most keyboards. It's usually not the same
as F1.

Browser_Back
Browser_Forward
Browser_Refresh
Browser_Stop
Browser_Search
Browser_Favorites
Browser_Home
Volume_Mute
Volume_Down
