Telltale Games

Are there any hotkeys set up for Tales? I'd really enjoyed to skip dialogue if I accidentally press something twice, or automatically use the magnifying glass in the inventory without having to click on it.

I've been pressing random buttons nothing seems to work, and I havn't seen a manual or readme or even an in game config.

If there isn't, it'd be nice for chapter 2!

Right-click to skip dialogue.

nvts8a · 07/07/2009, 09:24 pm

As simple as can be!

Thanks.

Well you can press either "I" or "TAB" to get to the inventory, and while there you can press "E" to examine your stuff.

"Space" to pause during gameplay.

Select dialogues and walk around with "arrow keys", choose specific dialogue with "enter", and if you walk aound with the "arrow keys" you can hold down "shift" while doing so to run.

That's what i came across while completing chapter 1.

Skarnet.

Thanks Skarnet! That's exactly what I needed.

I'm not getting into this mouse movement thing.

M to bring up the map.

Wow, I didn't know that... I always ran through half the town to enter the map screen...

You can scroll through the dialogue choices using the mouse wheel. The cursor will temporarily disappear when you do that.

Only one I noticed is when using click and drag to walk, if you hold down right click too, Guybrush runs.

Shift works, too.

Me too. Thanks.

click and drag to move Guybrush. Hold down right click to run. (also works with wdsa/arrow keys and shift)
double click on objects to run automatically towards them.
middle click brings up inventory. (also: tab) right click, middle click, or click off to exit out.
esc brings up the menu screen.

Haven't figured out how to skip cutscenes.

Wait a second. I just tried that, and it doesn't work. Anyone else?

infernogott · 07/08/2009, 08:27 am

why isn't this explained in the game or in a readme file?

parabolee · 07/08/2009, 08:33 am

Here are the best ones -

X = Inventory (B closes)
Y = Selects Examine mode
BACK = Menu

Oh yeah, this is on an XBOX 360 controller

Weird thing is while it has 360 controller support, you still need to use the mouse for the pointer?! They DIDN'T set the right analogue to the mouse pointer!?

Not a problem though, fixed in 3 minutes with the awesome (and free) X-Padder.

I use my PC hooked up to my HDTV in my living room, so the mouse and keyboard setup is a little clunky on my couch, my 360 controller solution fixes that though and now I can play Monkey Island (and Wallace & Gromit) while relaxing on my couch!

On the PC press F4 to highlight "interactive" objects.. somewhat of a cheat if you ask me though!

And about using M for map, it didn't work for me either..

I was close to saying that pressing STRG-M summons a three headed monkey, because F4 didn't work.
However i found out that it only works with Graphic Level 7 and above.

Would have been sweet though

Well, STRG-M might summon a three headed monkey. I haven't actually tried it
