The mysteries surrounding Grimrock 1 and 2 have been resolved.
The mysteries surrounding Grimrock 1 and 2 have been resolved.
I don't like asking this as I feel like a bit of a cheater. I got these 2 games many years ago on pc when they first came out. I am taking a trip down memory lane on windows 10 and re-doing the games.
In recent years I have developed a locking finger problem that makes movement difficult I have even had to pack up work.
To stop myself dying I found something that said it notepad file change console from false to true and change console key from 200 to 196.
I have done this but if I press the tilde key the console box does not come up.
The goal is that pressing the tilde key will activate a particular gaming device, isn't it?
~ (tilde) represents 01111110 (binary), 7E (hex), and 126 (decimal).
What key is typically used to bring up the game console in Grimlock?
Based on my understanding, you want to change the behavior of the standard key so that it functions as the tilde key instead.
Your mention of Notepad suggests you're developing a script to alter key assignments.
You also seem familiar with ASCII keycodes. It might be due to differences in the codes' application based on your language and keyboard setup, or perhaps a particular format needed within the script (decimal, binary, hex).

Your mention of Notepad suggests you’re developing a script for remapping keys.
And you are certainly familiar with ASCII codes. It might be an issue regarding how these codes relate to your specific language and keyboard layout, or the precise structure required within your script (decimal, binary, hex).

Furthermore, searching for “Character Map” in the search bar will offer a useful comparison tool.
Also, use Windows' built-in calculator—access it through the hamburger menu in the upper left corner—and select “Programmer”.
After we determine the appropriate key remapping, our subsequent step will be to craft a suitable script.
Greetings Ralston, thank you for your response. The following link illustrates my actions; please review the section at the beginning referencing “console”: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/pc/641157-...ock/cheats.
Furthermore, another individual suggested that the number 192 might be inaccurate, so I navigated to customize key and entered the tilde key. However, instead of the symbol, the system displayed 223 in the key function box. Within Notepad, I modified 192 to 223, and subsequently, the console now operates correctly.
