Strange keyboard/mouse behaviour

09-16-14, 06:42 PM

Hi there!

So i just installed the latest SH5 with Steel Wolf and patch. Everything was going just fine and then has i was trying a new mission, i can't use my "f: keys anymore and the awds keys don't work and i can't plot a course etc. Obviously i can't walk around anymore. Don't know what i touched here or whatever. Did search but can't find anything in here.

any ideas?

Tx, Alan.

Is your computer fitted with an AZERTY or QWERTY keyboard ? I mean that if i begin a new sh5 install, the installer asks me to choose between them. If i choose the wrong keyboard layout, then i lost awds keys moving function. Instead, they are mapped to the arrow keys.

Wish that could have helped you a bit.

Welcome to SubSim Alan.

Not sure what OS you are using but try unplugging your keyboard, shut down your system then plug the keyboard in again before turning your pc on agin. The OS should pick it up and automatically install it.

Tx guys!!

Ok now, it seems to fix itself when i go back to a campaign but it did it again on a historical mission!?!

The Wolf of Steel addon is quite something no? What a difference!
