Fix to FH keyboard crashing [try2]
« on: September 25, 2012, 03:14:52 pm »
Everyone who has a different keyboard layout than english noticed that some keys makes the game to crash.

There are 2 ways to fix it:
-Changing the keyboard layout to english
-Try to use the program I made.

I made a simple Autohotkey script to avoid to you to write these "bad" crashing characters,
This should make you to have less crashes (I hope so).

If you get an error like "hotkey not valid", please tell me what line number is the error and what keyboard layout are you using.
Im creating scripts for each keyboard layout on request.

First download one of these depending on your keyboard layout:

Then save it at C:\FeralHeart
Run the program FHkeyfix.exe and then FeralHeart will open, and a icon will apear in the taskbar.

The script will help you to avoid to crash when you press by error one of the crashing keys, but may still crashing on some keys combinations.

Note: Probably you will need to change the camera speed buttons for the F3 mode.

Im still trying to find the reason of why is not working with you, i have a barely idea of why.
I tested on 3 computers myself, and worked for avari too.
Thank you ;)

I never got so upset.
I worked 4 days hardly for this and only got 2 Downloads (from the 2 people who helped to test).
OK, im going to change the post title.

This happens to me, I just ignore, I learned that if you click ^ it will make a question mark xD it's a good way to test, just click that and if it isn't a question mark you are fine, if it is then you will crash xD

It's a shame that in 21st century, a game that uses unicode strings to store all internal text data, still handles keyboard input in 7-bit ASCII. I hate you, C++!

o: Well with tweaks to the game's code keyboard input method could be adjusted. xD All programming languages are fine by me... except Lua e.e ~ For now.

Since FH staff does not have a way to touch game source code and just kovulkd can, this is the only way i found to fix that.

Yeah, ASCII...
