Configuring slow motion

[Dalkar]

Hi guys, new to the forum. Sorry to make a new topic on my first post, but I really need this answered.
My Dell laptop's F. keys are hotkeyed and unchangeable to turn volume down, show battery life etc, and F9 is covered by it.
The only "cheat" I'm really interested in is slow motion. I used that in the original M&B, great fun .
So, would it be possible to change the keys needed to use slow motion?
Thanks for any help.

Just a simple "no" will do

No, unfortunately if you cannot change it in the Options screen for controls, the key combinations are hard-coded.

Possible to mod?

Possible to mod? I believe so, but it wouldn't be straight forward. There are two possible directions:
1) cmpxchg8b  may know if it is possible to use his Warband Script Enhancer (WSE) to hook into the same functionality as the hard-coded key combination for slow motion and code it to another key.

2) You could use the module system to create a trigger called in various mission templates that utilizes these commands:
mission_get_time_speed                = 2002  # (mission_get_time_speed, <destination_fixed_point>),
mission_set_time_speed                = 2003  # (mission_set_time_speed, <value_fixed_point>) #this works only when cheat mode is enabled

to essentially duplicate the functionality of the hard coded key press for slow motion.

Yes, you're right, that's not straightforward. Since I suck at modding I'd probably end up breaking my game.
Thanks for the help anyway mate.
