GoTheBunnies Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Here's a newbie question - how does one upgrade? Is it just a matter of installing the new version in the same directory as the old one? And if so, I won't lose any of my config settings will I?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headkaze Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 It looks nice but perhaps it would be better to layout the keys in alphabetical order and make it more into a square shape so there is less area to travel from key to key? Would also look nice with a bezeled key graphic behind the text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 It didnt occur to me not to use qwerty but having used it a little to test it is really quite nice and quick to use. At least for my brain.So Im happy with the functionality at least.EDIT: Id rather innovate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headkaze Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 This is the sort of layout I was thinking of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Please leave it as qwerty. Otherwise, make it dvorak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, you won't lose your settings - but even if something goes wrong, Tom backups up your GameEx.ini file for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ninja Rygar Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I Love it! I'd say keep it as QWERTY too... it's easy. Thanks for the update Tom, as always! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fRequEnCy Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I agree with QWERTY as well. Most games and apps I've seen with an onscreen keyboard have the QWERTY layout as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draco1962 Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 I agree with QWERTY as well. Most games and apps I've seen with an onscreen keyboard have the QWERTY layout as well.I would say there are just about as many that have the virtual keypad that are strialph, but being an old fart that failed typing in highschool, I find myself getting lost tryoing to find the letters when QWERTY I can fly through it.

Tom Speirs Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 PC Rebuild is complete. 11.31 is uploading now. It fixes the keys disappearing and I also updated the signing on applicable exes with my latest certificate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted October 21, 2010 Author Share Posted October 21, 2010 I was thinking about possibly enhancing the online keybaord to allow real time filterting of lists. So you could like pop it up anytime. What do you guys think on that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fRequEnCy Posted October 21, 2010 Share Posted October 21, 2010 Thanks for another update Tom! 2 thanks in 1 post. LOL. I do like the idea of being able to search anytime. It would save a few steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
