Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T15:27:42Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
Inside the key blocks contains a modifier and a key. The modifier is optional and can be removed by setting it to 0. The modifier keys have no particular pattern associated with them, it could very well be hard coded.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />

No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

== Resolution ==<br />
Resolution is ordered from lowest possible 64480 to highest possible that your monitor supports.<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
<br />
0 = 640 x 480<br />
<br />
1 = 800 x 600<br />
<br />
Any values higher than this purely depends on your monitor and you'll have to pull the resolution from there. It requires a bunch of complicated system calls and dll imports, a story left for another wiki.<br />
<br />
== Sound ==<br />
The volume starts at 0 and ends at 127 which is 100%<br />

==Starting Speech==<br />
<br />
''"Finally,I am a god. I shall wreak my revenge upon the unbelievers!"''<br />
<br />
==Strategy==<br />
<br />
This level is well prepared for you because you start off with lots of [[hut|large hut]]s and 50 followers, also youre a god and and don't have a [[Reincarnation Site]] but you still have to charge up your spells.<br />
<br />
This level is hard because the enemy really attacks you and have about 50+ people attacking you from 1 tribe, 2 tribes attack you, the [[Dakini]] goes first to attack you and the [[Chumara]] attacks you second and they attack really early, and the [[Matak]] builds houses right near your settlement. <br />
Try use your [[shaman]] to defend your city as much as you can.<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T12:05:30Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Combination keys */</p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
Inside the key blocks contains a modifier and a key. The modifier is optional and can be removed by setting it to 0. The modifer keys have no pitucalr pattern associated with them, it could very well be hard coded.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />

No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T12:04:38Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
Inside the key blocks contains a modifier and a key. The modifier is optional and can be removed by setting it to 0. The modifer keys have no pitucalr pattern associated with them, it could very well be hard coded.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T11:52:41Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Introduction */</p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
Inside the key blocks contains a modifier and a key. The modifier is optional and can be removed by setting it to 0. The modifer keys have no pitucalr pattern associated with them, it could very well be hard coded.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T11:51:43Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Introduction */</p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
Inside the key blocks contains a modifier and a key. The modifier is optional and can be removed by setting it to 0. <br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T11:49:40Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Introduction */</p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
The Populous Key configuration file is located in ./saves/Key def.dat ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]) after you use the built in keys editor inside the game. The keys configuration file uses the systems keycode map to determine what keys are available to use. This website has the key codes that seem to work wit most US QWERTY keyboards [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY].<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Keys Configuration Format
2014-10-08T11:45:36Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>The Populous Keys configuration file remains mostly unknown. It is believed to be clustered in 15 byte blocks, unknown if any of these blocks contain the arrow keys configuration. <br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:38:04Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:37:10Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:36:50Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:36:20Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:34:46Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

Key def.dat

<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Combination keys */</p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
Not all of these are tested.<br />
<br />
No modifier key = 0<br />
Shift = 1<br />
Shift + CTRL (or app button) = 3<br />
CTRL = 4<br />
Shift + ALT = 5<br />
Ctrl + alt = 6<br />
Shift + ctrl + alt = 7<br />
Alt = 20<br />

<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: /* Combination keys */</p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

Key def.dat
2014-10-08T11:32:45Z
<p>Brandan Tyler Lasley: </p>
<hr />
<div>Change Populous default keys using programming or hex editor. The file was decoded on November 23rd 2013. <br />
<br />
All the addresses are correct, but typos can and will exist. If there is a typo or wrong address let [[Brandan Tyler Lasley|me]] know or correct it!<br />
<br />
== Introduction ==<br />
Key def.dat is a file that you have to create by using the Populous key editor included in the game ([http://www.brandanlasley.com/releases/Thread/Popre/Best%20Patches/key_def.dat Key def download]). Once you save, the file is created and it is located in ./save/Key def.dat. Each key is stored in a hexadecimal address, the combination key is always 1 in front of it. So if 1 is pause 2 will be the combination key. The combination key is like shift + key but in the file format it reads key + shift. <br />
<br />
Each key needs to be converted from hexadecimal to a integer. This can be done in programming by simply reading information from the address, else if you're using a hex editor (like HxD) you'll have to that by hand using a converter like [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou] (use the values from CHAR), once you got the number it should range from 1-105, if it exceeds that, you're reading the wrong location or you got your math wrong. In [[#In Programming]] you will be told how to convert the values from keycode (the integer number you just got) to ASCII using programming methods. If you want to change them by hand without programming, all the key definitions are on this list [http://www.penticoff.com/nb/kbds/ibm104kb.htm keycode list for US QWERTY], remember that you have to convert those numbers back to hex from the [http://home.paulschou.net/tools/xlate/ Paulschou]'s link, or by [[#In Programming|programming]].<br />
<br />
This is not a complete decode of the file, however its most of the common key commands for Populous, if you find more, feel free to add them!<br />
<br />
== Combination keys ==<br />
The combination keys use a different keycode format. I don't know if there is a pattern to this or if the game has custom keycodes for these.<br />
<br />
All numbers are stored in big-endian format!<br />

== Resolution ==<br />
Resolution is ordered from lowest possible 640x480 to highest possible that your monitor supports.<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
<br />
0 = 640 x 480<br />
<br />
1 = 800 x 600<br />
<br />
Any values higher than this purely depends on your monitor and you'll have to pull the resolution from there. It requires a bunch of complicated system calls and dll imports, a story left for another wiki.</div>

All parameters must be read in this exact order<br />
<br />
== Resolution ==<br />
Resolution is ordered from lowest possible 640x480 to highest possible that your monitor supports.<br />
<br />
Example:<br />
<br />
0 = 640 x 480<br />
<br />
1 = 800 x 600<br />
<br />
Any values higher than this purely depends on your monitor and you'll have to pull the resolution from there. It requires a bunch of complicated system calls and dll imports, a story left for another wiki.</div>
