Title: Mouse keeps getting disabled in AH w/ VR
Post by: atlau on December 16, 2018, 11:39:32 AM

Sometimes I accidentally tab out of AH while flying in VR. when I get back in, my mouse is disabled. Any idea how to get it back into AH? it seems to be stuck in a different window.

Not having clipboard up can cause mouse issue. Could that be it? Thats only time I notice the mouse, go to move and click on something and turret moves or gun fires :eek: More than 1 or 2 open windows can cause it sometimes. Almost like tabbing back in puts AH on screen but mouse is still on desktop. I just tab out and use mouse to click AH window. Figured that out when music was in dif window. Clicked on Hanger and music paused :uhoh

It don't just happen to those with VR

But as 1stpar3 posted bringing up the clipboard has always brought the mouse icon to the game screen for me personally

Hope this helps

IIRC there's some key combination to activate the mouse outside the Clipboard but I can't remember it. Ctrl + H maybe???

Seems like there was a command in the past, like you, I have forgotten what it was or is, if it is still available...

Looking through the AH website Help/all sub categories, I was unable to find it....

I have not checked the New Trainers website or AHWiki yet though...

There should be a flashing message at the top of the screen displaying what the command is to toggle mouse control.  Mine is set as the H key, but I dont think thats default.

But I dont think this is his problem.  Maybe try tabbing out a few more times until it works?

Update for anyone else who has this issue. I've found that launching an from the mixed reality portal has been more stable than from the desktop and less likely for the mouse to go away. Also sometimes toggling the windows key+y sometimes gets it back.

That's interesting since Winkey + y is for switching input between Windows Mixed Reality and your desktop.
