GoldSrc Developer Console non-functional with US international keymapping #935

Closed swordfischer closed 11 years ago

swordfischer commented 11 years ago

Hi.

Description While launching a GoldSrc game, with an US international keymap (en.US-intl) I am unable to use the console (with -console in launch parameters). If I use en.US (no -intl) keymap before launch, I can successfully open and close the developer console as intended.

I tried this with Serious Sam 3 (also uses SDL) and it forces en.US (no -intl), so I don't have to change the keymap before launch. While this is not ideal, I do not have to restart the game because I forget to change the keymap before launching.

Steps to reproduce

Debug

The key you just pressed is not recognized by SDL. To help get this fixed, please report this to the SDL mailing list <sdl@libsdl.org> X11 KeyCode 0 (-8), X11 KeySym 0x0 ((null)).

It's not functional with Finnish keyboard layout, either. I worked around this by binding "toggleconsole" to another key.

@alfred-valve: Thank you very much. Though, international layout still won't work - but I can at least change the layout in-game. Is this as good as it gets? Just wondering if it is intentional. Keep up the good work :+1:

I don't have plans to allow rebinding of the console toggle key right now, but you never know :)

OK, nice to know - one can only hope. You can have this: ss_2013-01-29_00-43-09-94

@swordfischer I have all of those running on Linux except Blue Shift (Missing dll, Linux doesn't us dlls) and Ricochet (Just loads Half-Life with Ricochet music.
