Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!
If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.
We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

Controls - key combination like Alt-something Shift-something
I was using key combinations for years - Alt-arrow for strafe and Shift-arrow for high speed. How to set this in ZDOOM? I think it is impossible for me to play doom using other controls - it's too old habit

Re: Controls - key combination like Alt-something Shift-something
These two should work by default - Alt as 'Strafe' modifier and Shift as 'Run' modifier. All this can be configured in the controls menu, But you may have to disable 'Always run'.

Just don't even TRY playing with those controls in deathmatch/ a slaughter map, you won't be able to react quick enough.

I am sorry, only now I found I have installed GZDOOM. So the same question - but in the GZDOOM.
Or am I in the wrong forum?

Same thing:

You don't need to enter a combination, just set the strafe key or select the classic preset.

For reason unknown, many attempts of "Preferred keyboard layout - Classic ZDoom" did not change anything. Probably, the "Reset to defaults" helped at last. Thanks a lot!

Re: Controls - key combination like Alt-something Shift-something
"Preferred keyboard layout" only selects which preset "Reset to defaults" will use - just changing the option won't do anything.
