Hey I was trying to figure out a good keyboard/5 button mouse configuration and have been fidiling with it for a day or so. What are some of your guys layouts for your keyboard and mouse. Thanks

I use Num-Pad and this works great for me:
8 = forward
5 = back
4 = strafe left
6 = strafe right
Enter = Jump
Del = crouch
Ins = walk
- = activate saber
* = absorb
/ = pull
9 = push
7 = heal
3 = speed
2 = seeing

Mouse1 = attack
Mouse2 = alt attack
Mouse3 = saberstance
Mouse4 = Taunt
Wheel = Change weps

ESDF for movement. Shift to duck, Space to jump, CTRL is use; Push/Pull are on the mousewheel, as well as W/V. C is taunt, Q is altfire. Mouse1 attack, Mouse2 walk, Mouse3 Saber stance. Other force powers are collected around the ESDF core. R, A, G, Z, Capslock, and TAB are good candidates, and if you use a trackball, so are KP_plus KP_Minus and KP_enter.
Have my Good Fight, and the other quotes I use on f1-f4. H to cycle chat mode, y to speak. Alot of it is built on the JA script, but a fair amount of this is all me, based around my HL/TFC/Quake style configs.

well, apart from WASD my force keys remain F1 F2 push/pull
V absorb
G protect
x/Z select force
F use force

and mainly some silly sentences on the kaypad, taunts and other silly stuff between ENTER and G (on all 3 rows)

I set-up as asdw for movement, ctrl for duck, shift for walk, space for jump, q for weapon change, 1 for saber, x is challenge to duel, e for use, f push, r pull, 2 is usually absorb, 3 heal, 4 speed, 5 seeing. though 2-4 i usually change pending whether im a darky or light playing CTF.. Mouse is the usual, left click attack, right click alt attack, wheel saber stance. you might use the two other buttons on that five button for cycling through the force if you dont want to just assign a specific force to a specific button. :D

I use AWSD layout, jump is space, crouch/roll etc is C, walk is shift. Mouse 1=fire, mouse2=alt fire, mouse wheel=saber stance. I have'nt worked out comfortable layout for force powers yet. I tend to NF duel so it doesn't really matter that much

I use the "Quake-style" EDSF layout for movement and everything else is close by. I just got used to using that layout from Q2 and SOF.

I use the numeric keypad (on the far right of the keyboard).
NUM, KP_SLASH, *, and KP_MINUS are pull/push/speed/seeing respectively.
7=jump, 8=back, 9=crouch
4=stepleft, 5=secondary fire, 6=stepright
1=say GF, 2=engage_duel, 3=activate/deactivate saber
+ = heal, KP_ENTER = absorb
KP_DEL = taunt (or for single player, use)
mouse1=fire, mouse2=forward, mouse3=switch stance

I've been using that since the JK1 demo first came out.

I use the default AWSD but C for ducking.
mouse3 is sabre stance. got massive lots of binds next to AWSD keys, force mostly.
and a sweet "GF !" on Keypad-Enter.

I like it. doesnt make me any problems w/ most combos.
