Title: Changing more Hotkeys
Post by: Ophe on September 18, 2025, 12:54:44 am
Greetings!

JD's ingame Hotkey feature would normally not allow you to change some Inputs that more modern Games are fine to change. So I dived in and figured out how to do it.

First off, to make any Changes permanent, you need to be logged off!
Also I adive to make a Backup of the File you are Changing.

Navigate to this Folder: JadeDynastyReborn_HB\element\userdata\Layout

Now din the <Number>.key File for your Character.
Every Char has 2 Files, one for JD in general and one for Elysium. (For me my general JD File starts with a 7 and the Elysium one with a 2)

Rightklick it and Edit it with the Notepad or Notepad++

You will see a bunch of code in it and not a clear indicator that there are any keys being used.
But fear not, here is the Explanation:

For Example, this is my Entry for the Questlog
ui_show_task = 76, 0, 0, 0
Indicator for the Questlog = Main Key, Modifier, ignore the rest (I believe its and alternative Keybind, like a second one attached to it)

Now comes the fun Part, as you may have noticed, there are Numbers set for the Keys on your Keyboard.
Here is the List I used to figure out which key is which number: https://asawicki.info/nosense/doc/devices/keyboard/key_codes.html (https://asawicki.info/nosense/doc/devices/keyboard/key_codes.html)
So in my Example the Keybind for the Questlog ist chaged from Q(79) to L(76)

The UI parts are pretty self explanatory with their names.

For the Modifiers: 1 = Shift | 2 = Ctrl | 3 = haven't tested it I believe it may be Caps | 4 = Alt

Everything that starts with shortcut_ is a Hotbar Binding.
You can Cout them when and will know where a new Hotbay start's it is every 13th shortcut_
The Additional Bars like Custom bar 1 start at shortcut_69 ::)

Here's a little ingame Proof it's working
You cannot see attachments on this board.

If you want the same Bindings to all your Characters, you can simply copy and paste what you have created into all other .key files and ofc save after editing.

Have Fun figuring stuff out on your own or Contact me Ingame or on Discord if there are Questions to it.
