Also, for some reason; both it and the ' key end up putting the wrong symbol into type boxes like when you're enchanting something. I don't know why, but instead of putting ' it puts : and I'm not holding shift or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes all my letters capital letters and displays all the secondary commands for other buttons like numbers and symbols. I have found out a way to fix this momentarily. First you have to type some letters or numbers while holding they shift button down into your consol or an enchanting or spell alter. Then, delete the letters using the Backspace button. After this, I can type lower case letters (don't hold the shift button down when you type the new letters and numbers). I don't know what exactly causes this and I don't know a permanant way to fix it, but this works every time I try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramul Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I've seen that too, but from what I recall, you just have to open the console, and hit SHIFT. No typing required. That's as I remember it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcrastShadow Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 It only happens in Oblivion, the keyboard works fine with everything else (it's a Logitech G15 if that makes any difference). I've tried the shift thing you mentioned and I'm still getting the same problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrowgamer Posted November 8, 2008 Author Share Posted November 8, 2008 Ok, this will be my first post as a NON-N00B Oblivion cheater, and it will be a good one! I know how to fix your problem, as i had the same problem myself! (You can see my posts from quite a while ago) :biggrin: Anyways... So, obviously you have changed the .ini to say bAllow blah blah 1 instead of 0. So that being done, the answer has actualy already been posted: QUOTE(ShadowFighter_15 @ Mar 17 2007, 09:03 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> QUOTE(Mithrandir8 @ Mar 17 2007, 05:21 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Is Windows XP Media Center edition on your computer?

You have to unplug the media center censor from your computer BEFORE you start oblivon. Find the right USB cable, unplug it. Then run Oblivion. Downside to this is somtimes you forget you have it unplugged and thus, try to use the remote without success and making you think the battieries are dead. (Has happened to me alot). If this STILL does not fix your problem, PM me and i will give you further advice! Happy Cheating! PS: If my english isn't the best, im sorry. But you will have to live with it.

However, the date on this thread is over a year and a half old. This could be considered thread necromancy. I will leave it up as this question gets asked several times a month and maybe it will help someone. Please do not report this as it has already been addressed.

nosisab Posted November 8, 2008 Share Posted November 8, 2008 Seems the thread was not clarified to date, even if so old and as bben says it recurs at times. Most of times the issue occurs on no English keyboards. The cause is the game doesn't concern with the actual key name (it seeks for the positional matrix). To it the tilde key is the one most left over the TAB key (commonly the one to the left of the number 1). At my own keyboard it is the quote ( ' ) key, as example.
