Jamming the Run "W" Button

[lucid_wolf@hotmail.com 93]

I really get tired of holding the "W" key down on those long treks, so I jammed a piece of paper folded up in between the keyboard cracks of "W" key to make me always run... I'm a thinker :) Anyone else do this lol

you must be the first person who came up with this idea

[VidKo 53]

Yup!

But I put a small piece of plastic instead of folded paper :)

i use a 5 pence piece, i press in the W key and put the coin between 2 and 3 on the keyboard.... it then holds and i can run as long as i like!!

Brilliant idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I use 4 pennies glued together and my iphone to hold it all down.

I actually do this on the direction buttons on the keyboard, then I can use WASD to prevent any "oh shit" moments during auto run.

NO U

I actually hired a chinese guy who holds down "W" for 2€/hr

duct tape down on the arrow keys is what I use.

You guys are crazy.

I hold down W, open the Steam overlay, then close the overlay and I keep running.

ahhh cig filters... why didn't i think of that... Beans for you for most likely saving my keyboard!!

[smore98 225]

Why not just clamp it with a small wrench? Works for me. Just don't make it too tight and your keyboard will be the same!

I use the steam overlay trick all the time and has never failed.

I used cardboard in my up arrow but it just made me think....

Can I map run to my throttle on my joystick - I'm going to try this in 1 hour and 52 minutes...

Steam overlay master race.

How is this not in the controls?

Anyone ever play Star Wars Galaxies back in the day? Hold W then Tab or something and he auto runs. That world was way bigger than Chenaraus. I got an ASUS so there is no way to jam anything under a key, I like the penny trick, might try it out.
