How to play Dead Space with arrow keys...

Until someone pointed me to this cool utility originaly designed for Wii controler.
It's called GlovePIE and was designed by Carl Kenner.
GlovePIE webpage:

GlovePIE Mirror Download:

Copy this into GlovePIE and click Run button:
Key.W = Keyboard.Up
Key.A = Keyboard.Left
Key.S = Keyboard.Down
Key.D = Keyboard.Right
Now you can start Dead Space and play it with arrow keys.
Basically you can re-bind anything to anything you like. You can help yourself by using user interface on "GUI" tab to easily bind new keys. And there is really no limitations on what you can re-assign.
It's a really great utility that i'll use for other games as well.
Btw, GlovePIE also works on Windows Vista x64 even without admin rights (UAC doesn't trigger on it).
Enjoy Dead Space "your way", and not the way devs wanted

Hi,
Just thought I'd mention I've created a controls.rmp file which allows Dead Space to use the arrow keys natively.
You can find it at:-

Actually you can write it much shorter like this:
W = Up
A = Left
S = Down
D = Right
By the way, "Key." and "Keyboard." are the same as each other, and are optional.
If you have version 0.30 (which was temporarily taken down) then you can write it even shorter, like this:
WASD = ArrowKeys
GlovePIE doesn't request administrator privileges, or make any modifications to your system (unless you use TrackIR emulation), but some features don't work on Vista if you don't run as administrator. Vista deliberately doesn't allow programs to control the mouse in fullscreen games unless the program is run as administrator.
GlovePIE was not originally designed for the Wii Remote, it was originally designed for the Essential Reality P5 Glove (a very cheap virtual reality glove). But the P5 Glove was not a commercial success, so GlovePIE was not famous until I added Wii Remote support.

Now all you need to do is find the secret "Skip the damn cutscenes" button.
