keaboard issue...

**sephirothno12000** · 07-02-2008, 23:08

First off...after a year or so, I was finally able to install M2TW and plays great. However, whenever I go to type in the ö in Königsbergin the console, I have been, so far unsuccessful. I've even temporarily converted the keaboard to the Deutsch setup...however, even though all the other umlauts work, the ö seems to just close the console. Could anyone tell me how to resolve this?

I believe M2TW recognizes your keyboard in a certain manner so that ö open/closes the console.
However, you don't normally need to type "ö" in the console: All CA produced maps may display "ö" in a name, but are referenced in files as "o" instead.

So say you want to process_cq on Königsberg, you would use process_cq Konigsberg.

Hope that helps

It just says, "settlement not found". I've already tried it. The only way around it is edit the imperial_campaign_regions_and_settlements.txt.

Well I don't have kingdoms so I can't say for sure, but in M2TW stuff like HRE names with umlaut usually can usually be referenced in the console as the letter without.

Go with what Ron says though as he has Kingdoms.

On the map we are working on at the moment though, that's different.

The only way I could get those names to work is if I used Alt+3numpad numbers. I never knew the right compinations so it sometime took a while to get the right ones...
