if something doesn’t work.

A key does nothing in the game
  1. Click once inside the game window. Stream Deck types into the window in front, like a keyboard.
  2. Check the key in the game: Settings › Controls. The profile uses the game’s default keys. If you changed one, change it back, or change the Stream Deck key (see “Customize your profile”).
The map stays open after I hold Map
  1. That is the game: holding M on the keyboard does the same. Close the map as you normally do.
Gear does nothing
  1. The Gear key sends Tab, the game’s default. If you moved the gear panel to another key, set it back to Tab or change the Stream Deck key.
Does it work with the anti-cheat?
  1. Every key sends one key press, like your keyboard: no macros, no timed sequences, no plugins.
How do I get back to the start?
  1. Press BACK, top left of every page. Or press the first dial: it always goes to the Menu.
I have the profile twice, or a profile called “copy”
  1. You imported the file twice. Stream Deck never replaces a profile: it adds a new one.
  2. Delete the extra one (see “Have an older version? Delete it first” in Install) and keep one.
