ok here's my problem i dont know if your aware of this bug but here it is..

When im a game on the internet my keyboard freeze's i mean i can use the W,A,S,D and all the other thingy to move etc.

but i cant:
Change the song
Use any of the F buttons
Cant Exit.. ( using Alt+F4 to exit )
cant Use T..(The console appears..but cant type at all thnx to that new Mouse-click-exit-console i can still play it..)

this is really annoying i dont get this all the time but more and more often lately..[xx(]

Once again dont know if this has been reported before but just wanted you 2 know..

The same thing happened to me once last week. I could't type messages or anything, just move around. It was really weird. I have no idea how it happened or what I did to have it go weird on me. I guess I'm not really adding anything to this thread, just that it's not only Subslider who has had this problem before.

I don't know if it has been posted, yet, but I had and have the problem quite often, too. Well, not too often, and after 1 or 2 Soldat restarts everything is working as usual, but when the bug appears it's just anyone. And most often, or everytime, don't know, I hear the Windows "dong" sound when I press I (my Chat button) or ESC then.

rofl, strange one this time. You got it suddenly or what? Tell you something, don't run other problem when playing soldat. And one more thing, don't capital the 'freeze' on your topic. I always thought it was me....

I get the keyboard freeze too when I open up the chat console. The way to exit ou of the chat is to mouse click, but then you can't move your sprite. It's really annoying but you can try this:

1) Alt+f4 to exit the program.
2) Open up Soldat again. You can start chatting again. It works for me.[:D]

I really dont know what's wrong with the keyboard, but it does shutdown midgame sometimes. any suggestions?

I think it happens when u press a button a lot and u respawn... I use deagles and when i press 1 a lot in impatience with the respawn time (like this: 11111111111111111111111111111111111111) it gets stuck.

Well, that seems to be the reinitializing of controls after having Alt + Tab'ed.

It never happened to me. Maybe it's some DirectX issue. I don't know how to fix it if it is random and I can't produce the bug on my machine.

Subslider
June 22, 2004, 8:41 pm
mmm..
well it seem to only occur on reformatted systems..

i dont know what else is needed to produce the bug but ill keep an eye out for it when it happens..

This happens all the time to me, but the strange thing is I hear a random beep in the sound (like the one in windoze when you press the wrong button) randomly.. I thought it had something to do with my wireless keyboard, but i guess it happens to many people. Damn this is annoying, especially when people are talking to you and you can't reply!

No Soldat and no beer make Edak something something...

I think he means the same thing that MisterX mentioned above about "hearing the Windows 'dong' sound." I can't remember exactly which error sound it is but I think it's the windows XP 'default beep' "Windows XP Ding."

It happens to mee too, the sound is like when an error is shown in windows, and you MUST click ok, and clicking everywhere else will play a "dong" sound...

When i try to write something, or clicking two keys at same time (example: a/d (default move key) and s (to roll), it plays the dong sound too when the problem occur.
