As the title states, I simply cannot do the snowmobile jump to get to the power station in Siberia. to plant the last bomb. I have dexterity problems from severe health issues & I suck big time at driving vehicles in games. I have tried a dozen times & fall to my death. I didn't have half this much trouble in Half Life 2 & I HATED that goddamn buggy.
I'm wondering if the Modernizer mod is making it worse. Vehicle & walking speed is kinda slow & I don't think I'm getting enough velocity to make the jump. Also the turns the vehicle make are very extreme & fiddling with the settings don't help.
At this point, I'm not above using cheats to bypass the jump or going through the boulder at the front entrance. I'm desperate. The game stops for me here if I don't come up with a solution. Is there another way to the power station or a cheat that would enable me to make the jump? This is killing the game for me &I waited so long to play it (I had a long running bug where I couldn't rebind the keys ) & it's genuinely upsetting that unless I can get thru' this bit, my NOLF adventure ends. Thanks, friends. -

Checking if you can run keybinding the normal way after running NOLF2.exe and Lithtech.exe as admin is the first thing I would test.
binding crouch to right control should be:
Duck = "##157@ @ "
Let us know how it goes
Hello folks. Sorry for the long wait for my reply. I got pneumonia and was really sick for a month. Ended up in hospital.
Alas it didn't work. Disabling anti-virus doesn't work. I am REALLY stuck.
I'm going to see if I can buy a small WASD or onehanded keyboard/macro to sit on top of my laptop. That's the only solution I have.
Wish I knew why it crashes on Controls.
Thank you all for your help. If you have any other ideas, pls let me know.

Not sure if you're open to a gaming keyboard. I use one similar to what I'm linking below and it allows the arrow keys near the number pad to work like the WASD keys.
This is a great idea. Thanks!

I suspect that windows might prevent the game from editing configuration files on its own. I've experienced that to a certain degree myself when I don't run Nolf2.exe and Lithtech.exe as administrator in its properties.
If this isn't the issue, you could always edit the settings outside of the game:Open your Nolf2 folder, then go to the profiles directory and unless you created a new one, the profile you wanna edit would be the one called Player.
You should find a file called Player.txt there, open it in notepad
and scroll down until you find:
Unless this differs depending on the keyboard, changing it to the lines below should let you control your character with arrows instead.
Hope this helps
Editing this file might be THE way to go. I'll give it a try!(I did a similar ini edit of Murdered Soul Suspect as it didn't have ANY custom keybinds) I'll report back when I've done it if it works. Thank you so much! This forum is the greatest !
Edit: Forgot to ask: what line would I need to write to bind 'Crouch' to Right Control?

On NOLF1 did you download the GOTY version or the regular one?
GOTY version.

The keyboard is a good idea. Thanks!

No problem. Can you try the version of the game from our downloads? If yours came from another source it would make it a bit harder to figure out.
Alas I did use your file. That's what baffles me, as everything else from the download works super-well and the game runs great.(Your NOLF 1 file wouldn't let you change the controls either, (I understand that is a common NOLF bug on 64bit64 systems)but you could at least get to the 'Change Control ' option- even if none of the changes stuck. I got around the problem by using a tool like Key Tweak to temporarily change default keyboard bindings on my laptop-easy to reverse & uninstall) but I un-installed that when I thought it might be interfering with NOLF2.) I did notice there is a file called 'Disable Sticky Keys' and when it installs there's a registry value that says this. Would this be a cause of the problem? ! Ran a reg cleaner in case Key Tweaker was still there but I really don't think it's the problem. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled the game but it didn't help. I am really baffled!

BTW, thanks again for taking the time to help me.

The only option I have for Windows XP compatibility is Service Pack 3. It immediately crashes to this notice after I hit 'Play.' Tried running it in other versions of Windows and while the game will load fine, it always crashes on the ' Configure Controls' command.

The game is fine when I click on 'Controls'. It's the submenu AFTER that to configure keybinds. Excuse potato quality of pic, for some reason the game won't screenshot on my pc).If I click on the 'Configure Controls' it crashes to desktop immediately. So I can't even get to the key bindings.IDK what could be causing this. Thank you for replying- I wasn't optimistic anyone would be here!

Hi I really hope someone can help me. I'm trying to play the NOLF2 revival on a laptop. I loved NOLF 1 after getting it working with your helpful links to DG Voodoo.
I'm left-handed and have severe arthritis in my hands so I REALLY need to reconfigure the controls from WASD to arrow keys (Pls don't tell me to 'just get used to WASD'' as a lot of right-handed gamers do,that is not an option for me.) IDK but why it crashes on the controls to change keybinds.
I noticed when installing a registry value to 'disable sticky keys 'appears. Disabling a file of the same name doesn't help.
I got NOLF to work using KeyTweaker, but it would not work with NOLF 2. I now do not have this enabled.
I need to change the keybinds, but it crashes every time I click on 'Configure Controls' in Options. I have no idea what to do.
I've reinstalled,run a registry cleaner, tried a few Widescreen patches. Nothing works.
My setup: Win 10, (64)GT 1060,(6GB),installed on D drive

If anyone knows why this is happening or a fix I would be very appreciative. I get very depressed due to health issues and recently discovered NOLF 1 & 2 & love this old IP so much as its humor cheers me up. Thanks.
Cannot do the snowmobile jump in NOLF 2 Siberia level. Pls help!

Nevermind, I'm an idiot & was jumping in the wrong direction. I was surprised as this is the first time I've struggled with a bit of NOLF. Still would love some advice on the slow running speed though.
