Then replace KEYBLINDS.LUA

Open with notepad or other program.

Then edit.

You can then ajust the keyblinds to whatever keys you what.

Change key inbettween brackets to any key.

Don't edit anything else.

Save don't save as it will not work file will become corrupted.

You can adjust different keyblinds to each profile and faction. If you keep a copy you can replace or add to desktop so you can have set off different keys to fit in with your gameplay and increase apm and simplify transition Bettween keys.
yeah i already looked into the file but i didnt see anything thats connectet to camera movement or even with CTRL F . or has it a different name?

The files should look like this !

yellow files

Readme_files
Screenshots

WNX

and below that you will have a lot of which are witten in code or decoded. Application extentions

This is how the game should look once you have installed the game on steam.

From here Double click on the (Profiles) You will need profile created in game which is simple when you log or start the game. From there double click profile1. The double click wxp. Both should be folders. From there you will find KEYDEFAULTS. if you cant see it or its formated differently. You may need to make new profile, update or patch the game or get a geniune copy off the game. But the english version of the game which was released 2004-2005. There are alot off corrupted games now due to manufactureing and production. So you have have a slightly altered version of the game then another. If so guineise your copy or check guniueity.

Open the KEYDEFAULTS and from the you can change the Keboard shortcuts to any keys which you feel happy with save the edits and then you need close the Program files with X top right corner off the screen. Launch game or start up game open the profile which you have created the keys for and use in skirmish or multiplayer game the keys will have all been changed from any altercations from the " " try not to edit anything else otherwise you will get error such as defaults keys or no keyboard functions.

Than maybe you can help me?

I can't find anything related to the camera movement.

I am at the profile1 folder and inn the KEYDEFAULTS file.
I can see all possible keybinds but those related to the camera.

Any help?
