|
|
Sometimes my keyboard just locks up when I try to do a hand in Stepmania. Is it my keyboard, or do I need to download something to let me hit hands? I can sometimes hit freeze arrow ones, but I cant hit and three or four arrow hands. Help is appreciated. _________________

Certain keyboards will not allow you to hit all four arrows or even certain hand combinations at once. For example, my keyboard will only register hands as long as the up arrow isn't pushed down/held down. The same goes with hitting all four arrows at once. It won't register because the up arrow is being pushed down. This problem is not the same with all keyboards. In fact, most keyboards work just fine while hitting hands/quads. Maybe someone else can go into more detail about this issue... _________________

you need to switch the keys you use for stepmania, or get a new keyboard to play with. usually older keyboards are better mapped for multiple presses. _________________

Can I switch to the ones on the numbers used on the right of the keyboard? If so, how? _________________

go into options and then configkey/joymappings, you can set it to any keys you want, just try different setups and see what can handle all four keys _________________

Most of the time, yes. But my keyboard doesn't work with the WASD keys, but the num pad can work just fine. I had to adapt my keys so I can use num pad for spread too (I use 'End' 'PgDn' '5' '6' for spread and 1,2,3,5 for normal ) _________________
