What is an AZERTY keyboard ?

An AZERTY keyboard looks like this :

As you notice the first keys are A-Z-E-R-T-Y compared to a QWERTY keyboard

As you notice we just need to remap Q to A and W to Z, for this there is an awesome tool called AutoHotKey

Installing and running AutoHotKey

Download AutoHotKey at the official website[www.autohotkey.com]
Install it and it 'Run AutoHotKey' after the installation
Notice the new AutoHotKey Icon in your tray

Configuring AutoHotKey

Now that AutoHotKey is running, you will need to edit the default script

Right-Click the AutoHotKey icon and hit Edit This Script
When the script opens in Notepad, hit + to select all the text
Hit the key to delete all the sample text
Copy and Paste the code below in the file you previously emptied

#IfWinActive EdgeOfSpace q::a a::q w::z z::w return
Save the notepad file

Applying the changes

Whenever you edit the script file, you just need to save it in Notepad and hit 'Reload This Script' in AutoHotKey :

if you can tell me which of you key are you rebinding to

yes im in the UK and yes trying to remaop a Qwerty

class101 [ѕtеαмdеcκ] [author] 1 Jul, 2013 @ 2:27am

Should not be related to this then anyway why are you using this you seem to be from UK and in this country you are not on a AZERTY style keyboard so you do not need this I think, that is when you keyboard looks like the first AZERTY picture I posted up

Or maybe are you trying to remap on you QWERTY keyboard with more keys then I recommand you to see the HotKeys uses AutoHotKey in the docs, ie to use ALT for examùple it is not that simple than writing ALT in the notepad

did both of them, the 1st problem i had was the game crashed, after that i had no function lol

class101 [ѕtеαмdеcκ] [author] 1 Jul, 2013 @ 1:43am

can assist you if you want, first reason of failure i could think is forgetting to save the notepad files once changed, and forgetting to hit Reload Thios Script showing just up my post

unfortunutly the control change didn't work, i tried a few times with no luck, seems for now i will have to wait for the Devs to reactivate custom controls, thank you anyway
