Alt + WASD = Arrow keys

EDIT: Shoot - I forgot "Alt" is bound to 3D map rotate, I mean "pressing some keyboard key" not necessarily "Alt".

I want to setup the following:

- Pressing "Some keybind" - WASD act like the arrow keys
- Not pressing "Some keybind" - WASD behave like the standard CoH 2 grid keys

I'm using a Razer brand keyboard & nowhere within its driver settings (Razer Synapse 2.0) can I find the option to do this.

Looking around I see AutoHotkey should be able to provide this kind of functionality, I'm wondering what other people might be using.

You could make alt key the trigger to de/activate
I'm not sure which denomination is for the alt key but it could work.

Alt:

uspend

w::up
a::left
s::down
d::right

or something like

Alt & w:: Send, w

My controls weren't working
And if they were, you were playing dishonorably,
And if you weren't, you were playing without skill,
And if you were, it's not fun to play that way,
And if it is, you only care about winning.

Bible of Scrublord, Psalt 3:16.

Shift + WASD would do excellently. As an FPS player, that combination is second nature.

I just wish Relic would actually support it. I don't want to use AHK because of the risk of anti-cheat measures detecting it. Too many of my games use Punkbuster or VAC to risk being flagged

I use wasd for camera with autohotkey, personally I think it would be too clumsy to add another key to hold, the wasd keys are not that useful anyway. With grid keys the important stuff is still accessible (stop, reinforce, all abilities, retreat, upgrades), give it a try this is my script file

Code

#IfWinActive, ahk_class Plat::Window {DB3DC0D7-BBA3-4d06-BCD8-40CD448B4AE3}
	a::Left
	s::Down
	d::Right
	w::Up
	e::w ;Q and E are switched to make 'stop' more accessible
	q::e
	MButton:: ;attack move on mousewheel click
		Send {q}
		Send {LButton}
	return
	Enter:: ;disable autohotkey when chatting
		Suspend
		Send {NumpadEnter}
	return
	XButton1::9 ;numbers 9 and 8 for assigning units to mouse shoulder buttons
	XButton2::8
return

I'll give a look on how to do shift+wasd so that you can try that as well

Willy Pete: @Rosbone Ahh I missed that memo. I still think its a bad decision though. Adds frustration for players and isnt gonna make them that much money

Rosbone: It is also good they left it free until after the free to play weekend. Points for that.

Rosbone: But I agree, the cost to get a full decent Coh game pushing $115 US is not the best idea. Especially when it needs so much more work for casuals.

Rosbone: To be fair, it was a thank you to early fans right? They said it was not free for long and it would become a pay DLC at some point.

Willy Pete: Re-releasing free DLC so they can charge new players money for it. Brilliant marketing strategy

Rosbone: Congrats to Relic. Looks like Coh3 has finally usurped Coh2 s the popular Coh. You smell terrific.

Willy Pete: @Nickbn you didn't ask a question, and this is a chat box...
20 Mar 2025, 13:11 PM

Nickbn: @Rosbone it's incredibly rude to speak on someone elses behalf, especially when a question is directly adressed to them. I understand your passion for the subject at hand but I want to hear from him.
20 Mar 2025, 10:16 AM

Rosbone: @Nickbn No, I am just saying people should not be using any Relic owned forum since they have proven they ban anyone who says true things about Coh3.

Nickbn: @Rosbone do you speak on his behalf? I didn't know. In that case keep us updated please.
