Easygoing Eyebeast Morgan Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Does Jeff just point blank refuse to cater for laptops? I notice that for Geneforge 3 on a laptop, the command for Quicksave and the Mute button are the same (F3). This wouldn't be a problem is the command for Quicksave actually worked on a laptop, which it does not - it simply mutes whatever I happen to be listening to at the time. I'll send this off as a bug report unless anybody can tell me if there's any way of solving this. My previous experience with Spiderweb is that Jeff makes it impossible to change the keys that you use for the game, for some odd reason. Any clues?

Garrulous Glaahk Harlequin Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 F3 is the mute hot key on a mac laptop. change your hotkeys in your system prefs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Morgan Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 I was hoping I wouldn't have to do that (precarious hot key set up on my Mac), but I suppose there's no real alternative. Still, I think this is a problem that should be addressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Easygoing Eyebeast Morgan Posted April 24, 2005 Author Share Posted April 24, 2005 Ah, figured it out, for future reference.. Function key + F3 fixes it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Skippy the bush kangaroo Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 To make it clear for all the other laptop users out there: You can toggle the behaviour of your F keys - using the keyboard preferences you need to have the option 'Use the f1-f12 keys for custom actions' checked so that G3 works as normal and you hit fn-F3 or whatever for all the special actions.
