This is how you enable Toggle Crouch.

Post by Viking187 »

Crouching in PR can be a bit annoying after awhile because it's not togglable, you will be doing a lot of crouching if you value your virtual soldier's life and since i doubt it will be patched into the game i had to see if there was a work around for this.

And there is, here is how you can enable a almost perfect Togglable Crouch.

1. Download AutoHotkey: macro and automation Windows scripting language

2. Make a txt file and copy paste the the script below into the txt file. The txt file can be called whatever you want.

state:= false
$LControl::
KeyWait, LControl
Send, % "{LControl " ( (State:=!State) ? "Down" : "Up" ) "}" ;this is ternary that does the same thing as the if/else above
return

3. Exit and save the txt file.

4. Drag and drop the txt file onto the AutoHotKey.exe

5. Enjoy a much less tiring and annoying crouching!

Now this does come with a problem as when the script is enabled you can't type in game which is not really a problem if you have a mic. Your PC also thinks you are holding down crouch when the script is running so be sure to suspend the script by right clicking on it from the taskbar and clicking suspend or just close it when you are not playing anymore.

Once you get into the game it works great. If you want to name your squad something or you need to type you must remember to click left control once or whatever key you set it up with to be able to type ingame.

Other than that it works great and i can't play without it anymore.

Also cuz I have a pinky finger I have 0 care :P :) :D (I guess it's with the most of the population).

To be serious, I think it's a bit abnouxious if I have to toggle something rather then click it - especially if I'm not using it so often. I think that PR is a bit more about running. Not sprinting, but running. You're a lot safer that way.

There's a lot of scripts/Threads like these and to be fair they offer better solutions. If I'm not mistaken your script prevents running to run from nades, others include solutions for this.

Dont question the wikipedia! Just because it reports different things on different languages does not make it unreliable source!

I see all your points, and also thanks Mineral for that more in depth script i will certainly take at look at it. But i rather have it toggled when i just press it once.

Yeah UTurista sometimes trying to run away is a bit weird i think making it so that sprint disables the script would be a lot better.

My main goal with this thread was just to get all the new guys and some who don't know about it to be aware that you can indeed have a toggle crouch if you so desire.
