AHK ESC Key remap script

  • The ESC key is the default key to enter Test Menu in Gaia Attack 4.
  • The script below will bind the ESC to Alt+F4 and will need to be run in Administrative mode when you launch the game.
  • This script is handy if you have a cabinet and want all of your games exit via the ESC key.
  • This script just launches the game and remapps the ESC button, you will have to add additional commands if required. (Launch/Close Sinden Software for example)

Please see our guide AutoHotkey (AHK) guide if you are unsure.

Note: You will be locked out of the service menu while using the script to launch the game.

Usage Steps

  • Launch the game with its .EXE file, hit the ESC key and change whatever settings you wish (for example change it to Free Play), scroll down to game mode and hit ENTER.
  • Now exit the game by hitting ALT+F4, this will save your settings.

From now you can use the script.

#NoEnv  ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input  ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.

#SingleInstance Force

SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%

if not A_IsAdmin
	Run *RunAs "%A_ScriptFullPath%" ; (A_AhkPath is usually optional if the script has the .ahk extension.) You would typically check  first.
