Re: no run with right shift key

Does it not work at all or does it just not keep you running?

If it's the later then you can use my Omega Lite program or alternatively set the following addresses to 144 with a memory editor by hand.

4546ea
4546eb

4546f9
4546fa
4546fb
4546fc
4546fd
4546fe

Setting all these to 144 (0x90, NOP's) will remove the code that 'releases' the shift key. This will make you keep running while only hitting shift once (it will continue to run untill you run out of energy or use a warp).

Interesting. Does Vista have an accessibility feature that uses Right Shift? I remember when XP came out we had lovely problems with the StickyKeys feature..
