    [​IMG] is it possible to reassign the key to select all characters. it is the +* key by default, and i can't change it through the config proggi. i also tried changing the baldur.ini, but the game doesn't accept it.
    i'm used to a=select all, s=spells, d=disarm and f=find traps from baldurs gate 1. its just so convinient.

    You can in the BG2 configuration program. Look for it from the Taskbar and Menu

    nope, it cannot be changed through the config programm. nearly all other keys can be, but this one says "fixed". , . - for example can also not be used this easily. i'm searching for a way to remove this fix.

    (i'm using BG2 + TOB + latest patch, not the beta patch)

    [​IMG] Check the game's install folder for a file called Keymap.ini. Open it with any text editor and look for "Select All Members". Edit, save, run game. It should work unless it's hard-coded to + for some reason.

    sadly, changing the keymap.ini didn't work either. so i guess i change my habits. but thanks for all suggestions.

    i'll write black isle about this, if they tell me a way how to change the key i'll post it here later.
