Does DisableKey just disable the controls for the player or does it also disable the TapKey function? --Mandrill 06:33, 14 August 2006 (EDT)

Dragoon Wraith TALK 11:29, 14 August 2006 (EDT): Just the controls for the player, I believe.
Pretty sure IsKeyPressed will still work, too. Could be wrong, though.
Guess I should answer this one. If a key is disabled by DisableKey:
  • IsKeyPressed will work normally
  • TapKey will work normally
  • IsKeyPressed2 will always return 0, unless TapKey was used the previous frame
  • HoldKey and HammerKey will not work, but will take effect immediately if you use EnableKey before ReleaseKey/UnhammerKey

Dragoon Wraith TALK 23:22, 14 August 2006 (EDT): Thanks Timeslip! I'll update the article accordingly.
IsKeyPressed2 continues to function for disabled mouse buttons. Scruggs 15:42, 20 February 2007 (EST)

Not disabling the mouse wheelEdit

DisableKey does not seem to disable the mouse wheel (dxScanCodes 264-265). After using this function (script or console), the wheel still switches to 3dr person view and zooms.

I have found that changing fVanityModeWheelMult to 0 disables the wheel. The following code to save, change and restore its value is working for me:

Set xSaveFloat to GetGameSetting  fVanityModeWheelMult 
SetNumericGameSetting  fVanityModeWheelMult  0
	; <code>
SetNumericGameSetting  fVanityModeWheelMult  xSaveFloat
