so I have an azerty keyboard, but it has happened already a few times that it switches to querty settings ingame :roll:
this is extremely annoying... I cant find my buildings anymore with shortcuts, and my chats are as if I'm drunk
Anybody knows which key combination changes the lay-out?
(I also noticed it was only changed in AoEIII, when I alt-tabbed out the game, keyboard settings were just fine)
";qn cqn u spqre so;e zood plw" = is what I asked Lord during game, he must have thought i was getting crazy

I can't think what could be causing this, do you have a foreign version of the game?

I think they should have allowed WH and Rax to share a hotkey. I thought my hotkeys had changed until I realized they didn't share a key.
I wish I knew what to say to help you CHAOS. I haven't heard of that problem before.

I thought you had your fingers wrong when you was typing with 10 fingers.
Was a very good game by the way, 1 hour of non stop action and after we allmost lost we managed to win

nope, I have the english version
I'm almost sure it must be a key combination
ctrl+shift+something or
?

It is windows. Alt+Shift changes the keyboard settings if more than one keyboard settings is installed.
Go to Region + Language options in the Control Panel, select tab languages, press Button Details and remove all languages except the ione u use. Then ur problems should be away

Removing all languages is a bit extreme. But then I use others from time to time. There should be a button to disable the hotkeys in there somewhere. ctrl+shift does it, and alt+shift does it as well (one switches to another nationality, one switches between dvorak and qwerty under windows)

Well if u use a language with latin letters then it is quite usual because u have all the letters u need also in ur own language setting and english keyboard setting can be quite confusing, e.g. the gernan keyboard setting is quite different to the english one (z y exchanged and special signs are all different) so i removed english, but still have russian because i need the cyrillic letters
