I've been trying to play haegemonia with a friend. However it's really complicated because we both use notebooks without the necessary key ("backquote") to open the chat window. What I want to know is if there is any way to change the hotkey to open the chat window so me and my friend can chat ingame. I tried the using ShortcutEditor.exe and modifying shortcuts.xml but neither had what I was looking for

Yeah, you're right. Try using autohotkey - http://www.autohotkey.com/

Basically, you need a simple script to remap back quote to another key, let's say "q"

q::`

In case it doesn't work, try posting on autohotkey forum, I'm sure someone there will help you.

Forget about AutoHotKey, the effort to set it up isn't necessary.

In Haegemonia - Legions of Iron you can remap the key by editing:
\Haegemonia Gold Edition\Haegemonia - Legions of Iron\Inf\Prism\PrismKeys.inf

Open the file with any text editor and the only thing you have to do is to switch two key definitions, e.g. F8 with backquote
Switch the original entry:
#define KEY_F8 119
...
#define KEY_BACK_QUOTE 192

to:

#define KEY_F8 192
...
#define KEY_BACK_QUOTE 119

Now F8 will open the chat input.

In Haegemonia - The Solon Heritage edit the following file accordingly:
