How can I move the camera in the TechDemo without...

...the numpad, or mouse??? (btw my computer doesn't have a numpad)

 

well, you could change the keys...

It's a little advanced, but I could help you.

 

ok can you?

 

Sure, I'll edit them myself and copy over the code to you. ( don't get your hopes up, you're not getting any full game features )

1. go into your game directory, and click on Scripts --> cleints --> inputmaps

2. then find the file that is called "keyboard.inputmap.cs

3. erase all that is in that file and paste the code below, inside that file.

4. save it then close everything and open BeamNG,

5. simply enjoy your new controls set by IBsenoj!

ok, here are the controls.

g = aim camera right
j = aim camera left
y = aim camera down
n = aim camera up
u = zoom in
m = zoom out
h = center camera
b = flip veiw

f = freeze physics

that code won't work for the op, the %mm was introduced in a later version, the tech demo uses %movemap or something like that

 

well shit, I thought I did well.

 

just use WSAD keys W=Forward S=Backward A=Left D=Right

 

M-M-M-MONSTER BUMP. The last post was in 2014.

WASD works in free camera, not for rotating the orbit view.
