Backup patch-enGB.SC2Archive. Or enUS or whatever your language code is.
Restore the file from the backup before patching.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

It looks like Blizzard is improving the custom hotkey support. I was able to install patch 12 without restoring my backed up archive. My custom hotkeys were transferred to the new version.

It could be a coincidence (like randomly having the same file size with different content).
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

the tool only supports the default profile.

You have to do that manually by opening the archive, extracting the files, modifying them and putting them back into the archive.

yeah, it would be very nice if Tiler would add something to load up the other settings (even if it still saves to the standard hotkeys)

I would still be careful and do proper backup/restores. I had edited the mpq in patch 9. When patch 10 came out, it also copied my custom hotkeys. However once patch 11 came out thats when everyone had the checksum problems.

When a new patch comes out I would suggest:
restore original patch
update sc2
backup new patch
change your hotkeys

better safe than sorry.

It would be nice if sc2tools could automate some of this. backup and restore mpqs. save your hotkeys outside of the mpq, so you can load them up next patch.

Working great for me. I've mapped most of the keys to qwe (for upgrades and spells and such). I know this isn't the HALP! me!!1 thread, but has anyone else had this problem? I'll try tinkering with it.

Edit: just saw Tiler's post on p12. Looks like this is unchangeable

- From patch to patch a list of hotkeys in GameHotkeys.txt may vary, so the import file is not the best option.
- Blizzard has not yet made available and legal method of changing hotkeys, a lot of derbis in MPQ archives, hotkeys are splited in different files, and from patch to patch this changes. I don't want to change program every month added new method of grabbing hotkeys from different files etc... I'll wait for Blizzard when they form the normal hotkeys.

have you read the guide? there's about 78 reasons why it would not work, and 2 of them are not mentioned in the guide (also, I don't know what they are, I'm just expecting there are unknown issues)

It has been updated as of patch 10 I believe, not much changed since then (except Tiler added a functionality to change the UI hotkeys), but since I added both "how-to's" and a FAQ, there is little thing not covered there
