Keep running, walking!

[JasonDD 10]

Is there a way I can make my avatar keep running in the game, without having to keep the W key depressed all the time? Sometimes in CTI I am faced with a long walk, that can take 5 or even 10 minutes. It would be a good opportunity to make coffee, or even take my dog out to piss, if I could leave the keyboard.

At the moment, I use a bit of blu-tac and a paperweight to keep the key depressed...

To be honest thats exacly what i do lol, battrys work quite well as well.

Im not aware of a way to do this in any other fashion

Ahah. =P

You want leave your caracter walking blind while you make coffe? Thats funny.

But i dont think there is a way to do that, because it would be just stupid.

There are gaming keyboards with keys that do that.

The Microsoft Sidewinder X6 for example has a dedicated RUN key at the top.

They call it "Cruise control" : http://www.microsoft.com/hardware/gaming/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=102&active_tab=overview

First of each to thier own lol

But yeah ok so its not entirely realistic, but you know if you want to go down that path we'd end up doing guard dutys etc. Just be something usefull for thoses long slogs, im mean the only missions id use it on would be cti i guess. would make it less painfull when those sneaky buggers take the last bunker at Stary Sobor :mad::mad::mad:

Yes, It's worth the risk. I haven't died yet.

Btw, the quote on your signature is wrong. It was Dr Michael Ellner who said it

Yes, in my voice profile you can say "Auto move forward" and it will toggle down the W key. To turn it off you just press w once. Its one of the first things I added tbh. You can do similar with vehicle turbo with the voice command "Turbo on" and "Turbo off" for toggle off, or just press left shift once.

More info.

Logitech G-series keyboards can be programmed to do this. You set a g-key with on/off to W.

If you want I can provide you an AutoHotkey script that will do this for you. That's what I'm using for vehicles.

Thanks. I did hear it somewhere, but didnt understand the name very well. Corrected, thanks. =D

About what i said, I wasnt being stupid, just never thought that someone really wanna do that. For me, it sounds really silly to make the in-game caracter walk by itself in the middle of a warzone while Im afk. As I always try to find the best cover and position everytime I need to go afk.
