Default North and South changing controlling keys

Hey everyone!

Thanks for a great site! Both informative and well organized. Keep up the good work.

I as many of you ( I guess) grew up with many of this old pearls, and its just amazing jumping into this site and look at and play all the good classics.

I was playing North and South (one of my favorites grewing up) but i cant seem to be able to change the keys for the south team. Its says M to modify but nothing happens. Wich is a bit annoying cause the standar keys are W-Z-Q-S i belive. wich makes it really hard to play againt friends.

any suggestions??

Regards
Morten

CTRL+F1 to access the DOSBox remapper. You can map keys to other keys or even to gamepad/joystick buttons.

1. Open the keymapper
2. Click the key you want to have your keyboard key or controller button mapped to.
3. Click "add".
4. Press the key or controller button you want to use to control that action.
5. Click "Save", then "Exit".

You can have multiple keymaps and switch between them at will.
To change to a different keymap:
mapperfile=your_mapper_file_name.map

To see what keymap you are using at the time:
mapperfile
