Re: Is it possible to bind ...

i dont think so....whenever you try to bind a function to a key that is already assigned it gives you a little pop-up of death saying the key is already in use by ________ control.

plus why would you want to?
What if you're sniping from the prone position to minimize detection and you go to zoom, next thing you know you're crouching and you just took three bullets through the head before you can aim.

With a Logitech G15 keyboard you can, just use a macro.

Re: Is it possible to bind ...

Although I think potentially a bad idea (what happens if your ducking behind a concrete block and need to stand up to take pot shots?) There is a thread in the tips and tricks section about binding the parachute key to the jump button, not using the menu but the config file...I'll link to the thread when I get a second

Re: Is it possible to bind ...

what I want to do is bind crouch and zoom to the left Ctrl, so when I crouch I zoom but also have it secondarily bound to middle mouse press (as I normally do) so I can zoom any other time.

thanks in advance.

Yes. I believe you can. This is copied from a thread describing how to bind jump and parachute to the space key. I'm sure the same technique could be applied to achieve your desired result.

Here you go.

Go to your My Documents folder and look for:
Battlefield 2\Profiles\000* (* is any number)

Open the Controls.con with Notepad.

Change this line:
ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PIWeaponSelect9 IDFKeyboard IDKey_9 10000 0

to this:
ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PIWeaponSelect9 IDFKeyboard IDKey_Space 10000 0

Save.
Now Space is your Jump and Parachute.

I think you would have to basically just find the line
"ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping zoom" or similiar and change it to ctrl.

Play around you should get it.

Nice tip. Since I don't use parachute often, it frees up another key on my Nostromo n52!

Man ever since I did this. I'm a jumping fool. I'm always jumping off ridges and buildings.

It's funny cuz sometimes my team mates will follow me and I'll hear them fall to their deaths behind me.

Re: Is it possible to bind ...

I done it. works good.

ControlMap.addButtonToTriggerMapping c_PIAltFire IDFMouse IDButton_2 0 0

ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PIAltFire IDFKeyboard IDKey_LeftCtrl 0 1

and

ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_PICrouch IDFKeyboard IDKey_LeftCtrl 0 0

stays at default.

I spose you could do it for prone to, aye ..
