[UK/PC] Can't bind TILDE key

Heskey
Heskey
Hi,

It seems that TILDE (default keybind for weapon swap) doesn't work for players with keyboard language set to English-UK, meaning another key needs to be bound.

Annoyingly, ESO acknowledges tilde as a keystroke in text: `, but doesn't acknowledge it in-game as a keybind, or even allow it to be used to rebind something else.

When switching my keyboard language to English-US, it works as intended, but then other things on my keyboard are switched (e.g. " and @ ).

Please could this be fixed so your UK players can use weapon swap next to 1-5?

Thanks.

PS. I submitted this as a ticket in-game but have been advised by Ricky and JD at ZOS to post it here instead. Hope to get an answer soon as it's taken 2 days to tell me how I can file a report, when the report was already right there in front of them...

    Bumping this as just ran into the problem. Absolutely maddening that you can't bind the backtick on UK keyboards. There's no good reason this shouldn't be supported in an application developed within the last 20 years.

    This is STILL an issue today.

    @ZOS_Kevin @ZOS_GinaBruno, can you please have the team look into this. If we are using UK set keyboard, we can not keybind to Tilde

    No sir I have not, it does not seem to be an issue on our end, but on ZOS end. My wife can not change her keybind either. On USA keyboards we can, on United Kingdom keyboards we can not.
