I have no solution for you at the moment. However, LL is working on a viewer which will allow you to change the keyboard mapping so that you don't have to twist your fingers to reach the W and the A. Maybe you can temporarily change your keyboard layout in your operating system so you can use ZQSD to walk around? If I am not mistaken, that should match WASD.

 

Note to everyone else: Below you see an AZERTY keyboard, it is commonly used in France and Belgium. It has a different layout than the QWERTY keyboard that most people use. This layout makes it hard to use WASD, which is hardcoded into all viewers.

the project viewer for this is here: https://releasenotes.secondlife.com/viewer/6.4.5.544079.html

and pretty sure Linden team would be very happy if everyone with a AZERTY or other language keyboard would download/use the project viewer so that they can get feedback, which will help to progress the project viewer to release candidate status. Upon which key mapppings capability will make its way into TPVs sooner

Black Dragon has highly customizable keybindings.

The defaults don't match what you'll find in other viewers, but they can be rebinded to be exactly the same.
