I would've answered your question, but I couldn't be bothered to read it.

abe is now! 12-27-2007 05:27 AM

It's hard to understand your request: you wrote without full stops, commas, colon, ect.

while your running just hold down x and you will start to roll.

What baffles me is how you got to boneworkz when the mudomo/mudanchee vaults require you to do the same thing.

Fuzzle King 01-06-2008 07:40 AM

you still have to hold shift and the arrow button like normal running.just hold them and then hold down x

p.s: how can you not be a dutchman if you live in holland?

Fil must be amongst the 19·1% of Netherlands residents who are not ethnically Dutch.

I came out Poland.And I Have tried to "Hold Shift andd Press the Arrow Button then press X"
Then Nothing.Abe Do not Run, and dont Roll!!!.I run not with Shift+Arrow keyes, but with W+Arrow Keyes!!!!And i Crouch not with x or z.I crouch with Down Arrow Key!!!

Fuzzle King 01-07-2008 07:23 AM

right load the game up and on the menu screen go on options.then go on controls.highlight keyboard (press up)and then press c on your keyboard.you can then choose to change them,or a better idea is to press escape and see what they are at the moment.

1) Find a nice blank patch of nowhere to practice (It's what OI gave you Necrum Mines for).

2) Run as you would normally (holding 'shift' and the arrow key that points in the direction of your choice.)

3) Press and hold down 'X' and keep holding down 'shift'.

4)You should crouch down and roll in the direction you're facing. If you let go of 'X' you'll start running again. If you let go of 'shift' you'll probably stand up and start walking. If you let go of the direction you'll remain crouched but unmoving.

Hope that works for you. Practice makes perfect.

I have tryied to Change controls.But I have changed Run to "shift" But I change "Roll/Fart" to X, and then i fart with X!!!!I wil do not Roll with X but Fart with X!!!!

Fuzzle King 01-09-2008 06:43 AM

you wouldnt fart while running.obviously the x key has two functions.fart, and it makes you roll,if you hold it down while running.

As long as people don’t start spamming it up, there is no reason for it to be closed.
