In the setup wizard under inputs.. You can redefine your paging key. Then you press this button along with up and down to go pages at a time.

Are you looking to change the paging key in GameEx? in which case it's the custominput.ini in the GameEx\CONFIG folder

Or if you're looking to physically remap the page up and down keys on your keyboard your best bet is an AHK script

I'm just looking to change the page up and page down keys in GameEX from the actual keyboard pagup/down to some other keys. The reason is that I am running Meedio and Girder 3.31. I have the 2 channel buttons on my remote set for scrolling a full page. I had to use (CTRL-y and CTRL z) as Meedio's pageup and down keys because of some other program conflict. For some reason if I set Girder's target to Meedio it doesnt work for pageup/down so it's set to send the commands to the foreground app. This means I have 2 entries in Girder for what happens when I hit the Channel Keys. When I'm in GameEX and try to pageup/down it hesitates allot. If I disable the Meedio part in Girder GameEx will page fast and smooth. I'm assuming the problem is because GameEX is getting 2 key presses at once. What I want to do is change GameEx's Paging kets to be the same as Meedio's so I can get rid of the extra channel button paging keys in Girder. Am I making any sense ?

So you are looking to change GameEx so that it pages up and down with Ctrl-y and Ctrl-z?

I'm not sure if GameEx will accept 2 keys at once and I'm not at home to test but this simple AHK script should take care of it for you

Actually that script may not work, I think I remember there being problems with GameEx receiving keystrokes from AHK, let me know

Thanks allot!. I'll give it a try tonight and let you know.

GameEx can accept keystrokes from an AHK script no problem! That's what my Mouse2Key script is for!

I tried it and it worked as far as paging GameEx goes but it still had the delay. For some reason when I changed Meedio from being mapped to a CTRL key combination to something else it stopped the slow stuttery paging. Thanks for the help though. And thanks for pointing me towards the autohotkey program.

I thought we had problems in the past when I was helping you with the Mouse2Key script a long time ago? I thought we had to use AHKs 'key down' 'key up' commands rather than simply 'send'

I don't think you can simply remap the keys like

{PageUp} :: send {LCtrl}{Z}

I think it has to be done in two steps

{PageUp} :: 
{
  send {blind}{LCtrl keydown}{Z keydown}
  send {blind}{LCtrl keyup}{Z keyup}
}
