The Allegiance installation defaults to a keyboard layout that most players find very unpractical. There are several ways to edit this configuration to a more usable one.


Notice. Changes made to your keyboard layout in the single-player training missions do not carry over to online gameplay. You'll have to configure the keys separately for online play, possibly in a sandbox game.
Conversely, training missions 1-6 will use the default keymapping: to load your custom keymap just opening the KeyMapping dialog (ESC,G,C) described below, and simply hit Accept without making changes.


To edit your control scheme, either:

  • Do it yourself
  1. From ingame, press ESC and then select Game OptionsMap Key and Controls. (Shortcut: ESC,G,C).
  2. The key mapping screen will appear. Follow instructions on screen and when you are done click on Accept.
  • Download a pre-made configuration
  1. Backup the inputmap1.mdl file in the Allegiance/Artwork directory on your hard drive.
  2. Download a pre-made configuration file in your /Allegiance/Artwork directory (yes, you want to replace the old file).
