"Cycle Items (on the ground)" removed from game? - Guild Wars Forums

Tetris L · May 13, 2005, 10:26 AM // 10:26

This thread and this keyboard guide lists a "Cycle through items (on the ground)" command. Has this been removed from the game after beta? It doesn't work for me, but I desperately seek it.

It may be because I have a German keyboard which has a different layout. But I also can't find the command in the customize controls menu, so I can't remap the comand to a different key. I haven't tried the console command to assign a key yet. What is the exact syntax for the command? "Cycle through items" or just "Cylce items"?

Anyone?

Didn't even know there was a key that you could use to cycle through loot. I just mouse over everything that falls. /shrug

So do I. But looting could be so much faster/easier if I could use keyboard.

i think it was a way to try and help reduce the bots farming area's. Bot's could click certain spells accoarding to your health, enemies close by, after they die, click that buttom for item, and blaam... so you see where im gettin with this eh? Just an attempt to reduce bots.

Actually, I have no idea where you're getting with this.

Haha. Basically, it's an attempt to keep people from setting up programs that will do their item collection for them. See Diablo II for further explanation :P

It was in Beta, becuase I use it. believe holding down Alt will show all items on the ground. Instead of cycling, you'll just have to look around. If it isn't Alt, which Im pretty sure it is, then its Crtl.

Alt shows u all items/NPCs around, Ctrl shows u all the players around
