To do this, simply click on the “Keyboard mapping” icon on the tools bar on the right side of your screen. You can identify it easily because it has a keyboard shape. Click on the “Name” option and the Settings window will open.
Select the option “Customize” from the drop-down menu in front of “Keymap Scheme”. The functions of the game will be displayed as circular icons. Drag and drop each of these function buttons to the empty space in the gameplay area. Then type the shortcut key you would like to operate it with in front of each. This will change the function keys as per your wish.
Finally, in order to save your work, hit the “Save” button when you are done. Similarly, if you want the keys back in their default positions, click on “Restore”.
Synchronizer Tool
The Synchronizer tool is a built-in option for the LDPlayer emulator. It enables your activities to be auto-saved in multiple instances.

Hide Key Prompt
LDPLayer usually displays the keys that you can use to function with each part of the game. But many players find it as a disturbance to their entertainment. In such cases, if the players are already familiar with the usage of keys, you can hide the key guidance.
To do this, find the option of “Show mapping hints in game” at the right-hand menu bar. It should be already ticked. You should untick it. Then you will find the hint keys gone away at once. Now you can enjoy the game without your views being interrupted by the keys.
