...there's no keybinding for using the scope which renders it pretty much useless. We need a "use scope" keybind similar to the "use lantern" keybind, so we can use it without having to scroll through a dozen items to select it.
Actually the whole "scrolling through every items to get the right one" is really annoying and should have been ditched a long time ago in favor of some kind of inventory screen but I guess the mod is too far in development for that now. Did you guys ever consider it at some point ? Or was it just not possible with the doom 3 engine ? Cause in my opinion that's one of the rare things that needed fixing from the original games.
OK, details are at (

Here is an example of how to use them:
You need to FIRST uninstall any current FM then change or insert into darkmod\Doomconfig.cfg in a plain text editor. Note the format within quotation marks:
This sets the page down key to toggle the spyglass:
bind "PGDN" "inventory_use Spyglass"

We talked about an inventory screen but felt that it was too "RPG-y", and was too far from the HUD simplicity of Thief.
However, we added next/prev inventory category buttons, so you can scroll past all your keys, potions, readables, etc with one click.

Yeah, that's a pretty sweet compromise tbh and by sweet I mean inspired and on the money.

Any way to bind the mousewheel to the inventory scrolling instead of weapons?

Second this. We have number keys for weapons.

I assume just changing it in the settings menu doesn't work? I'm sure it can be done manually but I don't know exactly what you'd have to type in atm.

First thing I did was change the mouse wheel to scroll inventory in the settings menu. It works (surely?).

I missed this announcement!:nono::erm:
Dang, this thread is massive!:wot:
btw, this mod has to have the D3 1.3.1.1304, correct? No other patch, correct? (i.e., 1.3.1.1304, and not, say, 1.3.1.1205 or something?)
