Version History
This page lists the version history of Realmware's BF4 Settings Editor releases. From reading this, you will be able to tell exactly what has changed between versions.
1.1 ()
Features:
- You can now view and configure multiple key bindings for each control. For example, you could set the Z, K, and P keys all to the "Jump" action. Please note that this only works for buttons, not axis controls; this is due to a limitation in Battlefield 4.
- Added a donation button to the About window.
- Added a Fixes section, where you can read about the included fixes and workarounds for various Battlefield 4 problems.
- Added a toggleable game fix for freelook, which removes the need for using the Freelook (Hold) button.
- Added a game fix for the Freelook (Hold) control, which is normally hard-coded (locked) to a specific joystick key (the left trigger for Xbox 360 controllers) in Battlefield 4. This game bug has caused many players to have problems with their throttle down control.
- Added game fixes for the following controls, which are bugged/broken in the Battlefield 4 in-game menu:
- Select gadget 1.
- Toggle gadget 1.
- Spectator free camera rotate up.
- Spectator free camera rotate down.
- Spectator free camera rotate right.
- Spectator free camera rotate left.
Fixes:
- Fixed an issue where the default key bindings would not be completely overwritten when there were multiple key bindings by default.
- Fixed an issue with the invert vertical tank look setting.
- Fixed a text mistake on the Help tab.
- Removed the Gunner key bindings, as they are sadly no longer working in the current version of Battlefield 4. Gunner positions use the key bindings from the Vehicles tab.
Improvements:
- Improved the look and feel of the GUI.
- A message box is now displayed when loading a profile.
- Renamed the "Toggle weapon light" key binding to "Toggle weapon accessory", to indicate that it can also be used to toggle magnifiers, canted iron sights, etc.

Fixes:

- Removed the "Off" option for the texture filtering setting, as this has been removed in the full release of Battlefield 4.
- Fixed an issue with the joystick sensitivity setting, where it would be using a range of 0-1 instead of the expected 0-5.
- Fixed a bug where dragging certain sliders to zero would cause them to become disabled.
Improvements:
- Improved the look and feel of the GUI.
- Moved the scoreboard, full map, and zoom minimap key bindings from the Common tab to the Infantry, Vehicle, Jet, Helicopter, Gunner, and MAV tabs. This matches the in-game menu and the way the controls work in the full release.
