Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
Lets say for an example I wish to use the left shoulder button to fire two commands e.g. I assign X as my first command then I wish to place Set 1 as the second command. I want X to fire when I tap on the left shoulder button then I want Set 1 to activate when I hold down the left shoulder button. How do I do it?
Any help would be appreciated very much, thank you.

Oke_Doke thanks but those links still does not help me. As I stated in my question. How do I do it? Because I cannot get Set 1 into selection as I would with a key from the keyboard in the Advanced Assignment window. I need to get this particular double command to work and watching the links you posted for me don't really help. I really need some direct info.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
You can place a string of commands after the hold zone.
at least thats what i hoped you meant by a "set". Johnathan has plans to improve the assignment method in a future version which would allow for switching actual sets at any point in an assignment string. at the moment its not possible.

Oke_Doke so then you're saying that the double command I desire to have is not possible at all? OK then, I'll have to live with that then.
Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
HOLD UP! I think i have figured this out.
it blinks set b erm i mean set 2 but that might be acceptable.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
Oke_Doke you almost have it correct but its still not what I am looking for. Now what you did was execute the X and the Set at the same time but when you press again you release the X but don't return to the first set which I did and was able to get back to Set 1. Take a look below at what I added. What I really want is tap to fire X and hold to activate Set 2 and then return to Set 1. But we almost have it. I'll tweak on my end and if you wish to go the full nine yards with me I'll really be happy for that. So hoping you'd find the right settings fo me. Thanks, you're a real gem.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
curious its working for me, i made a manual edit to the solution above and must have deleted something.
The while held workaround works with this as well.
PS: im not using an xbox360 gamepad. So there could be something lost in translation.
EDIT: Corrected the previous example.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
The difference is that you ,Oke_Doke, use the set selection "while held" and you, Erol, use the set selection "2-way". And in fact it won't work with 2-way.
Another note:
If you press the left shoulder button a second time when when the release Assignmnet (X) is still active, you will get stuck in Set2. To avoid this as good as possible, change the key press time (profile menu->Settings...) to 0.02s.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
ah yes i forgot about the key press times!
Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
Confirmed, although its while held that's causing the problem for me. Double tapping x using while held causes the switching problem.
this seems to work. with out any problems (default key-tap time is .02s)
EDIT: I tried breaking this example by maxing out the profile's keytap time. still works.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
Oke_Doke I'll try out the last settings and see how things work but I see your second to last settings looking quite good also.
EDIT: Oke_Doke its working excellent via Notepad. I'll go and try it out in Quake 4 now and see how its playing out and give some feedback. Thank you very much Oke_Doke and Primal Fear for the corrections.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
This works.
But that only make sense if something isn't working correctly. OK, that's anyways already the case as the set selection switches automatically back to Set1, although it is 2-way so there is actually a second button press necessary.
Actually it does make sense, completely. It's absolutely logical.
Really good work!
However, it is still a good idea to have a short key tap time as this avoids confusion while the release assignment is active.

Primal Fear could you put up the full code profile settings with your suggestion, I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.

Re: Need help to make a double command using a keyboard key & Sets!
It's exactly the same, except that I would change the key tap time to 0.02s. Oke_Doke'S profile has 0.10s.
