I'm having lots of problems with other files and errors so I'm reinstalling the game but hopefully these files work for people. This is from a euro install.

Thanks guitarizt, replacing the GameHotkeys.txt files with the ones you uploaded solved the problem for me (EU client).

Read the first post of this thread, there is a guide for the "manual procedure", this is what you have to do. The video might cover part of it too.

EDIT: So whenever Blizzard notices that their original hotkeys are messed up, we won't be able to patch without having to restore our backups?
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Just to add my experience, after patching with the default GameHotkeys.txt's I went ahead and replaced them again with my customized files from patch 12. I've only tested a game vs AI but all my previous hotkey configuration items appear to be working just fine (WASD camera movement and all).

hey there,

i can't localize my gamehotkeys.txt - i even used windows search but it is nowhere to be found. where should it be originally located? I can't play and I really don't feel like going through all the patching again.

Hi guys,

I'm using the hotkey changing tool, before making any changes, I'm just wondering which file do I need to back up and where do I find it in the SC2 folder?

Thanks

Hi there,

I'am having a problem with the sc2tool since patch13. I can't define a hotkey for building reactor on my rax or researching Thor's hammer in the factory's techlab, also the starports techlab hotkey.
Can anyone tell me where i can modify the "standard" setting of hotkeys manually? or a little update of the sc2tool would be great

Thanks

For any hotkeys that are available in or don't work properly with just SC2Tools, use the "manual procedure" described in the first post of this thread.
There are 3 gamehotkeys.txt in total, the commands in the multiplayer mod version of gamehotkeys.txt overwrite the respective commands in the singleplayer (liberty) mod version of that file.
If you have a good reason to disagree with the above, please tell me. Thank you.

Would like to confirm that the GameHotkeys.txt from this link works for the US version. I don't know if replacing the entire Mods folder will work, but replacing gamehotkeys.txt worked fine.

Dude, you are a true legend. Safe to say without your efforts I wouldn't enjoy Sc2 half as much. If Blizzard don't have Hotkey Remapping by the time we get to retail, I hope you continue your work!!

I can honestly say this is the biggest thing that is making SC2 enjoyable right now.

The direction blizz has taken with this game (control, control, more control of what players should do/ how to play etc.. feels like they are baby sitting the fans) I am glad someone gives me the freedom to choose how I want to play this game.

Big thanks!

Could anyone post the GameHotkeys.txt from patch 13? I'd like to add Overseer spells and frenzy hotkeys to my custom setting.

weird, the latest version doesnt work for me (patch 13). when I load & save my customized hotkeys to the mpq, it shows everything as changed( even when loading it new), but ingame I still have the standard keys. why could that be?
