Key Binding Problem

evilspoons · 11-18-2011, 10:32 PM

I'm having a problem with key binding in Saints Row 3. By default, the 'select weapon' and 'zoom in/out' functions are both bound to the scroll wheel. This is fine by me. Unfortunately, the select weapon feels "backwards" to me and I went to swap scroll up/scroll down in the general keys... resulting in a message that it's already bound to scope zoom in/ scope zoom out and that these commands would be automatically unbound.

It is impossible to manually set the key bindings the way they come out of the box, except for hitting 'reset to defaults', which, of course, still makes weapon selection backwards for me!

Any ideas? I looked into editing the profile file in the save game folder, but it seems to be binary rather than a nicely-editable INI file.

Going to do a bit of a necro bump here, but I also have the same problem. I want to reverse the weapon selection on the mousewheel too, but I run into the same problems. I've been looking for an .ini file to change it manually, but I haven't had any luck whatsoever. Anyone else might know what to do?

Count me in as well. What an annoying bug. Is there any kind of fix for this?
