Keyboard Issue

[zAS]

Is there any way to select the language of my keyboard for ESF? Its a real pain to have to write "?" pressing "SHIFT"+"-", my keyboard is spanish, so lots of signs are in diferent places.

Thanks a lot.

Nope there is no way that you can change that ingame.

But in the console you should be able to use your keyboard settings from Windows

I would have thought that Half-life uses the Windows keyboard drivers to take input from the keyboard. If thats so would you not just change your settings to tell Windows that you want to use the standard Spanish keyboard layout? Do you have to to the "Shift"+"-" to write the "?" symbol when you are using a program like Internet Explorer or MS Word, or does this just happen in ESF?

HL uses the US keyboard configuration ingame. Although STEAM can use Windows configuration. Thats why you can type normaly in the console cause that is STEAMS part. But if you want to use keys ingame you nead the US values for them.

CS Source lets you type in your own language, there is an "ES" (Spanish) next to your nick to indicate that you can type in your own language...

Thats the source engine that does that. The engine ussed for HL1 dosent suport that.
