When an application is running will be terminated if you press the "ESC" key. I am wondering if there is a way to disable this without any modification in the code of the "Core.cpp" file:


Thanks

Nope. You cannot do that without changing Core.cpp, because it uses DirectInput(?). Anyway, you cannot catch key press before Core.cpp does.

Even if it's possible somehow (It'd be hard probably), it's yet easier just to change core.cpp.

I was never even aware it did this. I use the ESC key all the time and I have it return to the menu. It never closes my application. Was this changed or something? I'm going to go delve into my copy of Core.cpp.
