  1. Grim Combat Query - Keystrokes to Functions

    I play with Grim Combat Systems Zombie raids etc.  One of the tools is the "power" function.  Depending upon which weapon is deployed, hitting my "F" key will activate either a "kick" against the Zombies, "freeze" them or send out a stream of skulls which eventually will kill them.  I can recall that when I first used this function it could be executed by mouse clicking on the particular icon beneath the Quest Box, or tapping a key.  For some reason I changed the execution to the "F" key, but I cannot recall the method for making this change.  I thought it might have been on the Preferences/ Control tab, but in that box "F" is assigned as the primary key to fly/ stop flying.  My second thought was that it may have been a "gesture" but I can't find anything that matches that.  My third thought is a very hazy memory of a specific tab for Grim Combat Systems, but I can't find that either.

    Would any kind soul be able to enlighten me on this?  I normally use SL Viewer, but I have also used Firestorm viewer.

  2. The problem seems to have been solved.  It appears (and I use that word advisedly) to have have occurred when I used Firestorm.  Yesterday I was using SLV and in trying to track down the problem I went into the "preferences>control"* panel and in "walk to" action under "Primary control" it said LMB.  I don't recall having seen this before or can't guess what it means ("Lock mouse" something(?)).  However I deleted these letters and everything returned to normal in SLV.  I then changed computers and found the same problem was still extant, so I took the same action, and achieved the same result.

     

    *I haven't looked in every nook and cranny but this feature doesn't appear to be in Firestorm. 

     

    Thanks to those who replied to my question.

  3. Strange happenings.  I am running Second Life on two computers, with 4 different avatars, two premiums and two ordinary.  One of my common activities is going into Grimly's Combat System (GCS) Zombie sims to chop zombies.  I use both SL Viewer and Firestorm, but prefer SLV.  A couple of weeks ago I noticed that on one of my computers (my gaming desktop) when using SLV in GCS, my avatars have had the following problems.  I can load all weapons and move around but my weapons do not function.  I move the avi by hitting my arrow keys, and normally the weapon "fires" each time I step.  When I log into SL by using Firestorm, all avi's work as per normal on both computers in Grimly's.  Yesterday when I logged in to SL using SLV on my "working" computer (laptop), I was notified that there was an upgrade being installed.  When I subsequently logged into a GCS sim, I found that my avi's on this computer were behaving in the same manner as on the desktop computer.

    I've downloaded SLV on each computer, doing an uninstall and re-install, keeping only the bare essential files, but this seems to have had little effect, save that immediately upon entering a GCS sim with one of my avi's yesterday, it worked perfectly, but when I changed weapons, the system reverted to its non-working state.

    Is this a known problem?  It only seems to occur with SLV, and not Firestorm.

    Thanks in advance
