and somehow manages to solve the unsolvable problem (for me at least. "unsolvable problem"? are you mad?Īm I understanding this correctly? are you saying (and I paraphrase) "Sorry - when using WinUAE there is no way you can know what key to press to get the desired key in a Amiga guest environment"?īecause you have no idea what scan code relates to what key?Īnd you criticise AF? who perhaps have not the most elegant solution, but it works for me. It still needs to work = key position (scan code) is the only thing that stays the same.Įxcuse me. This is unsolvable problem, for example keyboard hardware layout may not be same as host OS layout which may not be same as Amiga layout. Please let me know if you need more info. The reason I tested the Prt sc/Sys rq key is that in Amiga I tested using WHDLoad and the game said to use the Prt sc key to exit - but using the key had no effect - it did not stop and exit the game.Īnyway - hope I have provided all the info you need. more specifically Input Source as "BACKSLASH" and if I use "Prt sc" on my keyboard it registers as "SYSRQ" (which seems correct). when I then press "#" on my keyboard - it registers as "backslash". and going into WinUAE… if I go to the "input" tab and using the "test" button. If I press the "Prt sc" (print screen) key in Amiga test - it shows no registration of any key press. if I press the "#" (Hash) key on my keyboard, the Amiga shows that I have pressed "" (backslash). When in AmigaOS with all above config, when I am in the "Input" prefs and use the "keyboard test" feature. The install seems fine, and my locale has been set to Great Britain, and the input keyboard set up as British. On WinUAE I have set up a clean AmigaOS 3.1.4 install (based on A4000D). and a Razer Blackwidow uk keymap keyboard. I am using WinUAE 4.2.1 on a Win fully patched. I not sure about your "I can test using real hardware". Are you saying another physical keyboard may work better (depending on its physical key layout?) that's got to be crazy?ĮDIT: Which Amiga key are you pressing and what key appears in WB and what was expected key? I can test this using real hardware but I expect it to be correct, it isn't always what you expect. which seems to be correctly identified in the WinUAE "input" tab. In view of your comment - to confirm, I am using a Razer Black Widow Ultimate Keyboard. So how are they doing it when there is "no sane way"? I notice I don't have the problem when I use Amiga Forever.that seems to work correctly, and I get the correct keys showing in AmigaOS keyboard test feature (again - when I have "British keyboard" selected in prefs). I know key mappings are a PITA, but that was why I was expecting the phase in your help docs "You can specify Compatibility mode with standard Windows setup" to mean you leave it all to windows to sort out - and send the keys Windows tells you have been pressed. but even when I done that, its "keyboard test" feature showing the exact same incorrect mapping of keys as I see in WinUAE, as I said. An optional USB A to B cable can be added as a product option below.I had of course set the correct "British" keyboard type in AmigaOS prefs. Keyrah V2 is delivered in retail packing with a short manual (single page). This switch looks almost like the original C64 power switch, so your modding project will come even closer to the original machine! If you press and hold this momentary setting for more than one second, the ACPI power signal is sent to the computer. Which is a "momentary" setting (switch will click back into middle position). Version 2 of Keyrah also implements this switch, but with a third position, The previous version of Keyrah was equipped with a switch that lets you choose between two different keyboard layouts: One for everyday use, and the other for special emulator support. There is only one version of Keyrah V2, and that a "one size fits all" model: By setting the right jumper, you can configure it to use 8-bit keyboards with German layout, 8-bit keyboards with US layout or Amiga keyboards, which don't require a special localization setting.
