Keypad Keys Unresponsive

Post by AC »

HLDL works wonders for me, however I've been trying to bind all my directories to my keyboard's keypad using the following script:

bind KP_pgdn "bind = >$\fanfics\; hldjsd"
bind KP_uparrow "bind = >$\ridicule\; hldjsd"
bind KP_leftarrow "bind = >$\Losing Responses\; hldjsd" :oops:
bind KP_5 "bind = >$\music\; hldjsd"
bind KP_rightarrow "bind = >$\Winning Responses\; hldjsd" :oops:
bind KP_downarrow "bind = >$\Nonsense\; hldjsd"

All of my binds function perfectly except for my keypad's left and right arrow keys (shown by blinking smileys). They don't bring up their directories in the console. The only message that shows in console when I press those two keys is:

bind <key> [command] : attach a command to a key
Host_WriteConfiguration: Wrote cfg/hldj_cmd_b.cfg

I tried toggling number lock, but that did nothing. Is there some sort of workaround for my problem?

notice your directory names contain spaces, which causes problems for the game. In the tutorial topic on how to bind keys, it tells you that you should replace with "*" character, so it'd look like this:

Code: Select all

bind KP_leftarrow "bind = >$\Losing*Responses\; hldjsd"
bind KP_rightarrow "bind = >$\Winning*Responses\; hldjsd"
