Press V for melee

[evil]

So during the tutorial part i got the info that the key "V" causes me to do a melee attack, even with a gun in my hand. Cool, works. But i would like to set this to a different key/mouse button.

So i went into the controls settings and found many mappings... but NOT the melee action on V.

Anybody an idea where that is if it even exists?

The config file with the mapping would also be ok as i already had to edit one to have a playable mouse sensitivity... 2024 shooter and you still must edit config file >.>

The game has a million keybinds and no way to set either the melee attack or the flashlight, it's ridiculous.

'It is even worse. Strafe left is on Z but on the german keyboards that not where it is intended. Now if i place on Y which is where it should be i have the problem that Y is also used for some wepaon quickswitch.

But that quickswitch is NOT configurable. So everytime i lean left i switch wepaons now -.-

WTF is this ♥♥♥♥????

Bonus points if you accidentally unbind melee, which you can do by binding something else to V, then you just lose the ability to melee at all, there's no way to rebind it back.

You're doing something wrong. I have Lean Left/Right on Q/E. And i have my Quick item slots on F1/F2.

I would like to be able to put the melee stike on either, F and still have F as my interact key, or be able to set the melee strike to Middle Mouse click, and then set the Light to something else.

My movement is set to WASD like normal.

Please read again my post:

I changed lean left to "Y". Y is the key already occupied by somethijng that i cannot change.
That you have placed leaning to q and e is totally unrelated to my post.

What's wrong with you?

[oh]

disgusting lies, i re-binded this

Can you specify what the setting is called? No one knows how to change that setting because if it's there, it's labeled something unusual.

Where is the config file you edited? I have been looking but unable to find one.

For the mouse settings it is C:\Users\...\AppData\Local\Stalker2\Saved\GameSettings\AppliedSettings.cfg

But i cannot find where the key mappings are saved. If you find that let me know

You can rebind melee there, but there are no options for the flashlight and many other hardcoded keys

      [12] : struct.begin
         DefaultID = -1
         bIsPlayerMappable = true
         PlayerMappableOption = MeleeAttack
         InputActionSID = IA_MeleeAttack
         Key = ThumbMouseButton
         OldKey = V
         Triggers : struct.begin
            [0] = EPlayerActionInputTrigger::Pressed
         struct.end

Managed to get it

How did you know what to enter. My file is basically empty, only empty entries like this:

PlayerMappings : struct.begin
   None =
   Exploration =
   Inventory =
   Trade =
   ItemSelector =
   AttachSelector =

I bound something else to V and it made a an entry for the melee being unbound
