🤠 Unofficial Hunt: Showdown 1.5 Settings Bug Mitigator

In Hunt: Showdown 1.5 there seems to be a bug that causes the game crash during startup.
Someone found out that this is caused by the settings file. The general suggestion is to delete this settings file and start the game again:
Hunt Showdown\user\profiles\default\attributes.xml

Unfortunately this will reset all your settings: Graphics, audio, keybinds, content marked as read, etc. Alongside other players I found out that certain keybinds may be the culprit: When you have a secondary keybind for an action but no primary one, the game will crash. At least that's what I believe.
This tool will allow you to select your attributes.xml , search for such keybinds and swap them. This way you can keep your settings, hopefully fix the crash and don't need to edit the file manually.

It worked for me and hopefully, it will help you, too! :-)

Instructions

1. Backup your `attributes.xml`!

2. Select the file with this input field:

3. Copy/paste this output into your file. This is intended to replace the old content of the file you selected in the first step.

Disclaimer

Back up your attributes.xml file!

I cannot guarantee that this will work for you. It worked for me, but maybe that was just a smaller part of a bigger problem.

It's possible to mess your config up again within the game's settings menu. This tool doesn't fix the actual bug!
