Unfortunately, the games don't have seperate side-step keys, only a 'modifier' key (Alt) that you need to press along with the left or right key in order to strafe. The source code for Blake Stone: Planet Strike has been released, and at least one source port is in the works that ought to add this, not to mention add other enhancements.

You can get WASD movement, but you cannot circle strafe (turn and strafe at the same time).

http://www.gog.com/forum/blake_stone_series/strafing_problem_in_blake_stone_aliens_of_gold/post4

If you use the DOSBox keymapper, you can add the strafe modifier key to the A and D keys so that they become strafe left and right when pressed. All it means, however, is that when you press these keys, you cannot use the mouse to look around as the strafe modifier is active so mouse left and right still strafes. Not ideal, but it means you can strafe then stop and turn, strafe then stop and turn.

Also, you can use novert to disable vertical mouse movement so that you don't accidentally move forwards and backwards.
To use the keymapper, load up the game, then once loaded press Ctrl+F1 to bring up the keymapper interface.

Now, the ALT key is the strafe modifier, so on the onscreen keyboard click on the ALT key (this is the action for which you want to create a bind).

With the ALT button selected, click the add button and then press the left cursor button on your actual keyboard. Click on add again and this time press the right cursor button. Then click on save and exit to return to the game.

Now your left and right cursor keys activate two actions, that of the strafe modifier and their own left/right action, meaning that they strafe left and right respectively.

You could make the WASD buttons do both the cursor keys and strafe modifier, but then you'll run into a problem when typing in your name and savegame names, so I just use the cursor keys for movement.


If you still have problems, here is the contents of my mapper.txt file (you can specify the keymapper filename to use in the .conf file).
