Title: mouse stopped working in game
Post by: Ack-Ack on August 20, 2010, 03:23:43 AM
Hadn't had this problem since the patch that supposedly fixed the problem of losing mouse function in game.  After a sortie I lost all mouse function within game and when I alt+tabbed into Windows the mouse worked fine.  Went back into game and the mouse still didn't work, just like the problem earlier in the summer.  I do have a film of it if it would help to send it in.

Using a CM Storm Sentinel Advanced mouse.

Not trying to be a smart aleck, but did you try H?

Mine does that on occasion but usually fixes by hitting the "H: key. Not sure if I am doing it or the game, probably me.  :aok :salute

It usually happens to me when I open the chat buffer, but click outside it for some reason before typing.  If I hit "H" thinking I'm typing my message, the mouse will lock.  If I hit "E", then my engine quits...etc, etc.

I have rebound that command to Ctrl+H to prevent any accidental pressing when typing a long time ago.  It could be my mouse as it does have a "lift" problem occasionally but when that happens it usually stops working in Windows as well.

Doublecheck to make sure that the function is still assigned to Cntrl+H?  :salute

Yeah, I'll do that when i get home but I swore when I checked after relogging it was still mapped that way.

Just got home and checked and it wasn't a case of my accidentally pressing "H", that command isn't even mapped to any keys.
