Important keys
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Tux is steered by the following keys:
|
|
|
|
Arrows - control direction and speed
|
|
Space - Charge for jumping, jump when released
|
|
|
|
The appearance is modified by following keys:
|
|
|
|
1, 2, 3 - select camera mode (default is 2)
|
|
f - hide or show fps display as part of the hud (heads-up display)
|
|
s - screenshot (in folder "screenshots")
|
|
h - toggle on/off hud
|
|
u - toggle n/off snowflakes (menu screens only)
|
|
F5 - toggle on/off skybox
|
|
F6 - toggle on/off fog
|
|
F7 - toggle on/off terrain
|

F8 - toggle on/off trees and objects
|
|
|
|
|
|
The configuration screen
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
The most important adjustments can be done at runtime at the config screen.
|
|
Most options should be self-explanatory. "Auto" for resolution means that the
|
|
program uses the same values as set in the basic computer configuration. That's
|
|
not convenient in windowed mode since it ignores the menu/task bar on the
|
|
screen.
|
|
|
|
There are 4 levels of detail:
|
|
|
|
1 - for very slow computers (no trackmarks, particles etc.)
|
|
2 - most details are shown but on an lower level
|
|
3 - good appearance but using lower resolution textures (default)
|
|
4 - best appearance, today's computers should have no problems with this
|
|
|
|
The adjustments are entered and stored in the file "options". Editing this
|
|
file is possible, but usually not necessary. |
