ShooterSix Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 It seems impossible to control the damn helicopters with keyboard and mouse! Is there a mod that that solves this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 It's actually easier then in any other GTA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmbiquitY Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Use WSAD + numpad, thats a lot easyer. I tried using wsad + mouse but I couldnt do the mission either. For some reason when I used the mouse, after a while of flying the helicopter started uncontrollably panning to the right so it became unsteerable and I crashed xD But no problems using the numpad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thales100 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Use WSAD + numpad, thats a lot easyer. Yes, thats how i play it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHILLI Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 who doesnt use numpad except for experienced people? numpad FTW!!! a joypad isnt too bad either, but you can do quicker manuvers on the keyboard to me. good luck playing and have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcrysis02 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 Yep.I use numpad too.And yes, i think helicopters are easier to control in this game.The only problem i had was with the revenge mission where the camera goes berserk. Just practice, find the most comfortable settings for yourself, you will get the hang of it eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nillus Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I don't use the mouse at all for helicopters in GTA IV @ pc, and I use default controls. Just put your left hand at WSAD and your right hand at the NUM pad, and flying that way goes perfectly fine for me. Imo it's just something you need to get used to after other games, same for the dynamic camera while in car. (moving it around with mouse all the time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dinamodanci1986 Posted May 21, 2009 Share Posted May 21, 2009 I remapped my heli controls to be the same as in SA. W - Throttle up S - Throttle down Arrow keys - pitch Num 0 - shoot Q - Rotate left E - Rotate right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkJee Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 and if you dont have a numpad?? (im on a laptop without numpad and... AAARGHH) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 Also, switch to 1st person view when flying. It's infinitely easier to control for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Of Monra Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I only use the keyboard when controlling the helicopter. use the numpads to make it go forward and backwards and turning it. No need to use the mouse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graven Posted May 22, 2009 Share Posted May 22, 2009 I use the default with switched rotating and pitching keys, feels better to control. And numpad 2 to 5, freedom for thumb. W/S = Throttle up/down A/D = Rotate left/right Numpad 4/6 = Bank left/right Numpad 8/5 = Pitch fwd/back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
