Binding restart to wheel
What should I put in the CTRL-F9 textbox to be able to restart from the wheel?
Tried a few variants but nothing works...
Simular Q :

I was wondering if there is a way to bind F9 / F10 / F12 to the "4 in one" button on DFP ?

"4 in 1"-button? you mean the POV thingy on the left? or just how you can bind 4 keys to 1. if that's the case, use the profiler, create some keystroke command for F9, F10 etc and then choose "add cycling command".

@BulliT: you need the logitech profiler or a similar tool to bind Shift+R to your wheel
try /restart

no not anymore, scawen added so that you can bind CTRL-F9 to CTRL-F12 to buttons on your wheel in the Q patch.

that works only when you are hotlapping or on a local server. not on the internet.
Call me a noob cause thats what i am.
I get how to set different things to the F# keys, but how do u set them to the ones on my dfp?
i no u bind them (or i think you do) but how do you do that?
P.s. step by step guide useful
I believe you can only put text-commands under ctrl f9-f12 , so every command that you can type into a text box. And there is no 'vote restart' text-command so it's not possible to put that under a ctrl key.

shift-r via the profiler is still the way to go for this particular function.

If scawen can add a vote-restart text command, you could put it on a button using LFS.

So you know how to put commands under ctrl f9-f12?
When you have done that, go to the Controls options screen, click Buttons 2 and assign a button to any of the ctrl F9-F12 keys.
Does typing /restart not vote?

For shows I thought it might be nice to map say Shift-G to a button, so if there was an 'admin' command for shift then perhaps it would help shift-r/s/g/x etc.

That would be a no too. How do you put commans under ctrl f9-f12?
I get all the f1-f8 etc.
Just wondering as its a pain to keep having to look at keyboard for messages.
Thanks
You put commands on ctrl+F9-F12 in the same place as F1-F8. Then, if you want them on your wheel, you map the relevent Ctrl+Fx in the controls _> buttons 2 menu.

It doesn't vote, it only works in singleplayer or in hotlapping.

Still noe following *hides with shame* if i go to options to where you set F1-F8 it only goes as high as F8 in both normal and the ctrl+. Where do you find them
Can you set these to text?
And in the control and buttons not seeing anything to do with setting these to my wheel.
Maybe my memory is corrupted

*Loads LFS*

Yup. As I thought: Options -> Game -> Ctrl+ -> F9-F12. Type in /restart. Then in Options -> Controls -> Buttons2 you set a wheel button to it.

This only works in Patch Q btw.

Ah i got patch p that would explain all my confussion
Ill go get patch q then
May I bump this thread after 8 years?
On a friend server, if I do shift + r, I vote restart. But if I bind a wheel button to something like /r or /restart I have the following error: "You don't have admin rights." Any explanation?
** Best answer **
Bind /shift r
Thanks Daniel. I will try.
