hmmm
how can you have your profile saved on the cafe system?
if you have enough time, and even if it is reset each time you play
go into my docs/bf2/profiles
find the right one
then edit the controls.con file
and delete the reference to crouch
then go into options in game
and enter your desired keys
however, ,,,
even though I never used a cafe system
I doubt you can get this done
good luck

Re: Cant crouch with shift! need help!?

This problem seems related to non being able to crouch when using Numpad controls.

I found that the only way to get this to work is to delete the ingame control button and exit the game.
Now edit the controls.con file in c:/Docs&Setting/<Your login>/MyDocs/BF2/Profiles/<your account number>/controls.con
Almost all to-be-changed-stuff starts with: ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping
Change the c_PICrouch IDFKeyboard IDKey_<key you want> 0 0
Make sure you use the definition for the key that BF2 understands
If unsure what to use try mapping another key then crouch to your desired crouch key, remember the name and try it again.

the same goes for the vehicle controls or you won't be able to crouch when being the 2nd crewmember in a tank, most fortunate for lurking snipers

also remember that the ingame crouch control will most likely be empty, somehow it works for me.

got that ?? ... this prob means you spend you first 10 paid minutes doing stuff what seems like hacking to the inet cafe owner and you get kicked out gl anyways

My ctrl key is not bound in the game menu, but must default to crouch because it works. I use ctrl for vehicle smoke also, trick is with BF2 (if your not into editing files) is to to remove all the entries (if necessary) then assign your keys.
