You've probably come here because you've been frustrated by Antichamber looking for the W, A, S, D keys instead of the physical keys at their QWERTY positions. Or perhaps you want to use entirely different keys. This guide will show you how to configure Antichamber's key bindings to support your keyboard.

The location of the game folder can be different for you, but fortunately Steam makes this easy. In Steam, right-click Antichamber and open Properties. Under Local Files, press Browse Local Files.

You should now see the game folder. Navigate to UDKGame\Config\ and open UDKInput.ini in Notepad. If you're a Linux user, open DefaultInput.ini instead.

Now you're looking at Antichamber's input configuration file. If it looks like the screenshot to the right, then you've got the correct file!

Now onward towards the bindings we're looking for. Search for the following text:

You've found it if you now see four lines starting like this:
There's some Control=False stuff to the right of each of these, but that's not important to show here.

Now, you need to replace these key names with the appropriate names for your keyboard. For example, if you're using AZERTY you would replace Name="W" with Name="Z" and Name="A" with Name="Q".

Here's a table showing all replacements you need to do.


If you want to use non-letter keys, use this list[udn.epicgames.com] to find the name needed for that key.

That's it! Save the file and enjoy Antichamber!

If you want to undo your changes or correct a mistake, you can let Steam restore all modified Antichamber files.

In Steam, right-click Antichamber and open Properties. Under Local Files, press Verify integrity of game cache. Steam will then replace all files that have been modified with their original versions.
