Those damn QWERTY developers!!
Those DAMN developers with an QWERTY keyboard always make their games with standard WASD control as input for movement without any options to change them and without thinking about us people with an AZERTY keyboard, while most of us more likely will enjoy the game, if the keys were binded to ZQSD instead!!

But fear not, as I going to explain how you can do that. In fact, you can do this for every UDK (Unreal) Game, but let's not get into that ^^'

Steps:
  • Getting started
  • Finding the right File
  • Changing the codes
  • Testing and solving
  • ...

Plss like and I hope u are helped!!
#1 Getting started
First of all.. You will need to find the right location of the file where you will have to change the input from. This might slightly be different from computer to computer, but it's basicly the same for all of them.. (Except MAC's, soz I don't do MAC's)

Anyway, the file we need is in a map where the pc installed all the stuff for the game, wich I assume would be located in your Steam map since you installed it true Steam. If not you will have to remember where you installed the game.

Now try to locate the map like this:

My Computer > Local Disk (C:) > Program Files (x86) > Steam > steamapps > common > The Stomping Land > UDKGame > Config

You should see a bunch of INI Files and the above bar should read this or simular to this:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Stomping Land\UDKGame\Config

From now on.. Go to the next step..
#2 Finding the right File
Now there are alot, and I really mean ALOT of Files ending with .ini here, wich makes sense as here is where we need to be. Now search closely for a File named UDKInput.ini and double click on it to open it.

Now you will see a whole buch of codes like this
[Engine.PlayerInput] MoveForwardSpeed=1200 MoveStrafeSpeed=1200 LookRightScale=300 LookUpScale=-250 MouseSensitivity=30.0 DoubleClickTime=0.250000 bEnableMouseSmoothing=true Bindings=(Name="Duck",Command="Button bDuck | Axis aUp Speed=-1.0 AbsoluteAxis=100") Bindings=(Name="Look",Command="Button bLook") Bindings=(Name="Pause",Command="Pause") Bindings=(Name="LookToggle",Command="Toggle bLook") Bindings=(Name="LookUp",Command="Axis aLookUp Speed=+25.0 AbsoluteAxis=100") Bindings=(Name="LookDown",Command="Axis aLookUp Speed=-25.0 AbsoluteAxis=100") Bindings=(Name="CenterView",Command="Button bSnapLevel") Bindings=(Name="Walking",Command="Button bRun") Bindings=(Name="Strafe",Command="Button bStrafe") ...

Scroll down and search the codes that start like these
... Bindings=(Name="Up",Command="") Bindings=(Name="Down",Command="") Bindings=(Name="Left",Command="") Bindings=(Name="Right",Command="") Bindings=(Name="W",Command="SL_Input w| GBA_MoveForward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_w") Bindings=(Name="S",Command="SL_Input s| GBA_Backward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_s") Bindings=(Name="A",Command="SL_Input a| GBA_StrafeLeft| Onrelease SL_Input Release_a") Bindings=(Name="D",Command="SL_Input d| GBA_StrafeRight| Onrelease SL_Input Release_d") Bindings=(Name="one",Command="SL_Input 1| Onrelease SL_Input Release_1") Bindings=(Name="two",Command="SL_Input 2| Onrelease SL_Input Release_2") ...

When you have found them, move on to step 3..
#3 Changing the codes
Now we will change the codes so that the WASD input is changed to ZQSD, as well that our W and A also know what their 'role' in the game is (NOTE: It is important you also change the W and A inputs as otherwise the game will not work properly)

Please get focused on these four codes
Bindings=(Name="W",Command="SL_Input w| GBA_MoveForward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_w") Bindings=(Name="S",Command="SL_Input s| GBA_Backward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_s") Bindings=(Name="A",Command="SL_Input a| GBA_StrafeLeft| Onrelease SL_Input Release_a") Bindings=(Name="D",Command="SL_Input d| GBA_StrafeRight| Onrelease SL_Input Release_d")

And change them to this
Bindings=(Name="Z",Command="SL_Input w| GBA_MoveForward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_w") Bindings=(Name="S",Command="SL_Input s| GBA_Backward| Onrelease SL_Input Release_s") Bindings=(Name="Q",Command="SL_Input a| GBA_StrafeLeft| Onrelease SL_Input Release_a") Bindings=(Name="D",Command="SL_Input d| GBA_StrafeRight| Onrelease SL_Input Release_d")

Notice that I only changed the first letter in the code, changing the others will result in a game not working properly so dont do that.

Also pay attention to change ur A and W key, their codes are a little bit under the ones you just changed for Z and Q and look like these
... Bindings=(Name="q",Command="SL_Input q| Onrelease SL_Input Release_q") ... Bindings=(Name="z",Command="SL_Input z| Onrelease SL_Input Release_z") ...

Also here you need to change the first letter to W and A so it looks like the example underneath, this is VERY IMPORTANT you do this or the controls wont work!!
... Bindings=(Name="a",Command="SL_Input q| Onrelease SL_Input Release_q") ... Bindings=(Name="w",Command="SL_Input z| Onrelease SL_Input Release_z") ...

Be sure to SAVE the File and its changes and move on to the next step..
#4 Testing and solving
Once you are sure that you have saved the changes and did it correctly, start the game and test it out..

You should be able to test it on either a Solo or Multiplayer game, Try to move around using the normal ZQSD keys and check if 'A' is doing its purpose of showing the players as well as the other keys. I dont really think 'W' has a purpose in this game so nevermind that one..

If it all seems to work out great then congratulations on configuring the inputs for the game and I hope you can enjoy the game more now!! Remember, it is still in development and things will probally get better soon, and don't forget to spread out who helped you and to like and/or comment this Guide ;)

If it doesn't, go back to step 1 and check if you did everything correctly. Commen things u might have missed in or forgot are followed:

- Be sure and absolutly sure you SAVED the UDKInput.ini file and its changes
- Be sure ONLY to change the first letter of the code
- ONLY change the codes I gave to you
- Be sure to CHANGE the codes of Q and Z too
- Be sure that you are in the right map path and game

Double check all these things and try again! If it still isn't working, I am afraid I wont be able to help you out..
...
IMPORTANT
  • Don't forget to change ALL those inputs and ONLY in the File I mentioned (UDKInput.ini), I am not responsible in you changing other codes and crashing the game
  • If you are sure you changed everything correctly and it doesn't work, please make sure to check first if you didn't forgot to save the file before flaming me
  • Altho I did say this works for every UDK game the codes look different for other games and I am again not responsible for crashing those games
  • This Guide may not be copied and used without my permision and credits mentioned
  • Ignoring one or more from above will also be ignored or taken action to it if nessecary

Special Thanks:

- My dad for supporting me true the whole afternoone like cooking for me and stuff
- The developers for yet this tiny mistake in early development making an awesome game already
- My friends on steam
- My dear hun Hege for giving me this game as a gift <3

Please be sure to leave a comment and/or a 'Like' if this Guide helped you out

Love ya'll,
Piece <3

It works but on it's easier to change the keyboard in windows option :p
And I wanted to play with ZQSD but to write a message in the game with my AZERTY and I think that's not possible :/
