    Making an English version of Typing of the Dead Arcade

    Happy update time! I got approached by Widge and he offered to swap all individual keys for making German QWERTZ keyboard layouts work. Long story short: Case closed! All is good now in Typing Of The Dead QWERTZ land. He published the German patch (and also a patch for UK keyboard layouts)...

    After consulting with @ateam and @MetalliC on Discord, they advised against swapping individual key values. Instead, they proposed swapping the whole key map of Typing Of The Dead with one that is known to support European keyboard layouts. I first tested and proposed DreamKey 3.0 as it...

    Dreamcast - Typing Of The Dead (Translation for international keyboard Layouts)

    Hello everyone, I'm happy to have found my way to the Arcade Projects forum in order to pitch an idea for The Typing Of The Dead (a game I adore). I'm located in Europe (where it never saw an official release). Each country has its own keyboard layout variations (QWERTY). Sega sold many...
