Can't use Mouse while Keyboard keys are pressed

by OpenEnso · in Torque 3D Professional · 08/04/2013 (11:46 pm) · 4 replies

Hi,

I have tried this in my own project, and a bare test project with nothing changed, both times I'm having a problem where while I walk/jump, I cannot use my mouse to look around or shoot? But while i have no keyboard keys pressed, the mouse works perfectly fine.

I'm not sure why this is happening, and since its happening even in the test project that I created from the project manager and didn't change at all, it looks like its not something I broke myself.

Please help, I've run out of ideas.

Thanks,

Enso

That is very interesting. Been using Torque (various flavors) for almost 10 years and I've never run into this one.

Honestly, I can't even begin to imagine what the culprit is here.

Try running this project on a different computer and see how it works.

Are you on a laptop? I had this happen with a laptop because of the touchpad drivers. I had to upgrade them to fix it.

Hey Tim, you were right, I used a mouse today and didn't experience any problems, I'll upgrade my touchpad drivers then.

And thanks Richard as well for the quick replies.

Heh, I had a friend report this very thing to me when I had him testing some things on my new laptop... figured I'd eventually get around to seeing what caused it. Now I know :)
