I'm definitely going to give this a shot.... I have been using standard hotkeys since 2010 but I have always wanted to try a grid that will help me be quicker and have better control with base cams....

I've downloaded the files but which file should I be using?... the 1-3c file or one of the "mouseless" files? I have WoL but not HotS.

Is anyone working to update this for LotV? If not, I'll go ahead give it a try. What I don't have a clue about is how to handle the new "add to group while removing from previous group" modifier.

In the end I went and did it myself.

I bound the traditional create group command to alt only, and the create+remove to ctrl.

Another nice thing in this version of DarkGrid is that I resolved all the conflicts that happened with the campaign units. When a conflict occurred, I preserved the MP keybinding and moved the campaign-only keybinding to a different spot. I haven't gone through the campaigns recently, so this may be a bit buggy, but it's nice to be able to play with only one set of keybindings.

When lotv releases, I'll update this with the keybindings for that campaign too.

(Note: Loading this file in HotS will remove all the lotv-exclusive keybindings)

Hi I looked in this project in 2016 as I was fascinated by custom hotkeys setups. I was looking after nice tips I would have missed… I remember that the amount command positions with the group layout surround was not enough to cover for all Zerg unit (to produce out of larvae if I remember well… I'm not sure anymore)

I wander whether somebody keeps using an updated version of this .SC2Hotkeys project, it would be really cool

If nobody else answers, you may consider TheCore Lite, which I maintain since then, you can check my signature. I think you will find a set of features that cover most of Dark Grid advantages and more, with a different group/cam layout. It comes with a README document that explains the design choices:

I started with this but I've customized it a lot to fit my style of playing.Here's link if there's anyone willing to try it out
Darkgrid layout ala Revo
Main changes that I've made to fit me are:
1) Switched A back to attack command because I play other games and it didn't feel natural playing other games with A as attack and Q in SC2. Also Q is now for patrolling, should make it easier to use for patrol splitting as terran.
2) I've most likely downloaded an outdated version because it had townhalls and supply providers as different hotkeys varying between races. It should be fixed now.
3) Banshee cloak and decloak back to C because it felt more natural and besides C was meant to be used as miscellanous ability and it just felt silly to have it rebinded elsewhere.
4) My version had ctrl group numbers messed up pretty badly so I set them to numerical order from 1 to 5 to actually match it on my keyboard so that when I bind ctrl group 1 also looks the same on screen.

I haven't done anything to create and steal hotkeys because I don't use but the pattern is visible how to create them if one would wish to use them. I personally find it hard to manage to 4+ camera hotkeys so 8th camera camerahotkey isn't to be taken seriously. Also if someone wishes to use rapid fire look it up since I haven't used it just in case so it's not setup poorly.
I'll gladly clarify if some questions arise.

There is some merit in maintaining some "hotkeydiversity"… all those old projects are all fascinating

i know this is probably not enough of a good reason to resurrect this, but i wanted to put my 2 cents in here for history. i started using this the moment it came up in 2011. that is 14 years guys. that is a lot of time getting attached to a layout and this was the way i decided to enjoy this game during so much time.

i just wanted to thank @FoxyMaihem for this, as sometimes there are people that do things for the community, and maybe dont know how important they could be.

i recently started moving into thecore lite. ive been out of sc2 during a couple of years, is the first time i disconnected that much, so i felt that is was a good time to try. thankyou to @bobo38 for letting me know the name of this layout, as i did lost the bookmark.

also as an small contribution, i uploaded the version ive been using updated to LOTV (probably not the best, but it works
