Rebindable ''open console'' key?

[RadioactiveBug]

Well, Bethesda doesn't like danish keyboards, apparently. The ''open console'' key is on ''æ'' by default (it's located next to L). I find this very frustating, because it haven't been so in any other Bethesda games that I know of. It is also terribly unpractically placed! Is it possible to rebind the key to be on the tilde button?

It's weird, it's supposed to be the 1/2 key -- that's what you have on the left side of the 1 key, right?

 

Anyways, download F4SE -- it contains CustomControlMap.txt.

 

http://f4se.silverlock.org/

 

Put EXE and two DLL files in your Fallout 4 directory and the TXT file in the Fallout 4/Data/F4SE directory. Open the TXT file in a text editor (I prefer Notepad++), find Console and change the first hex code on the right (default 0xC0) to whatever you need -- if your tilde key is where the right bracket (]) is on the US keyboard, then the code is 0xDD.

 

Now you have to start the game using f4se_loader.exe.

Thanks, Androktone. I'll try that

Well, I've been fighting with the .txt file for some time now, but I can't seem to find the correct hexcode. The F4SE works, and I can edit the line, so that it works with other buttons, but for some reason I can't change it to the ½ button (it is the one to the left of my 1 button).

.The virtual key code for the Danish ½--section sign key should be the same as for the US gravis--tilde key, namely 0xC0.

 

Edit: but... it's not. Try 0xDC.

When I set the hex to be 0xDC, the toggle button is still æ, for some reason

[Androktone]

Both C0 and DC do the same?

 

Does this line looks like this?

Console    0xc0    0xff    0xff    0    0    0    0x10

I've found that Fallout forces my keyboard  into US mode, swapping @ and " keys... and forcing ' to open my console, meaning that it opens the console when I try to name some items.

[RadioactiveBug]

Yes, Androktone, it looks exactly like that. And yeah, 0xc0 and 0xDC does the same for some reason. The only key I've been able to change it to is the ''-'' key

[Androktone]

The only explanation I have is: your house gnomes are unhappy with you.

 

 

 

Here's a (potentially useful) list of VK_OEM codes (US layout):

0xBA	OEM_1(:
0xE2	OEM_102(><)
0xBF	OEM_2(?/)
0xC0	OEM_3(~`)
0xDB	OEM_4({[)
0xDC	OEM_5(|\)
0xDD	OEM_6(}])
0xDE	OEM_7("')
0xDF	OEM_8(§!)
0xBC	OEM_COMMA(<,)
0xBD	OEM_MINUS(_-)
0xBE	OEM_PERIOD(>.)
0xBB	OEM_PLUS(+=)

None of the VK_OEM codes seems to work. Either it doesn't change them at all or, it changes to a button that i can't seem to find on my keyboard (no button at all, i think). I think I should have a friendly chat with my house gnomes, then...
