  1. Haha, that's creative! When you did this, was I still the default key for opening the inventory?

    Interestingly, I showed this video to my sister just yesterday. :D
    Her main question: why don't you use a mouse?

  2. Well, I typically play with my laptop on my lap on my bed and I don't want to find a hard surface to properly use a mouse on. ;) Also, I've played Minecraft using a trackpad since 2011 when I first purchased it. :D

  3. For years, I played MC with a laptop scratch pad. It isn't bad - just don't play pvp.

  4. So THAT'S why I've been made fun of for PvP all these years? :eek:

  7. Haha I used a trackpad for a while for PvP but I find that movement and such is easier with a mouse. I do enjoy using my trackpad for more comfortable arrangements on my bed tho.

  8. And if they don't have buttons clicking the lower right portion of the trackpad still results in a right click :D Middle click is indeed often more difficult.

  9. Depends on the trackpad. With my Mac, the ENTIRE trackpad is left click, including the lower right portion. To right click, I have to hold control and click or click the track pad with two fingers pressed together (neither of which are very conducive to Minecraft, though believe it or not I HAVE played right-clicking with the control-click method before).

  10. Yeah, that's just Macs being weird :p I use right click all the time, couldn't imagine living without it. :p

  11. For my "use" key, I use the "Z" key on the keyboard. No joke.
    My sister and cousins do as well. I have taught them in the ways of the Stnywitness!

  13. That looks super complicated... and no mouse looks like it would take forever to build. :confused:

    Also, you should hide the search bar and the Cortana button on your taskbar... unless you actually use those :p (and Microsoft Store)

  15. Do we need a gofundme to get you a mouse?

    Righthand:
    Arrow keys - Move
    Right-Alt - Place

  18. Woah, you must have a very big hand (or a very small keyboard, or a balance between the two :p). :eek:
    It's hardly even physically possible to strafe to the right while sneaking and placing blocks, like this. :p

  19. Maybe my keyboard is weird? Right-ALT and Right-CTRL are right beside the arrow keys...

  20. Huh, interesting! How about Page Up, then? Maybe take or share a picture. :p I'm intrigued about your layout now.

    Hm, my brother plays Re-Volt (an RC racing game that I should perhaps write another review about, in a new thread) using only the numpad (and as such only needs one hand), I wonder if Minecraft could be played like that too!
    There are 17 buttons on the numpad, surely that's enough? Although wait... looking around will be difficult. :p It isn't even possible to look around without the mouse in Java Minecraft, is it?
