Urgent help needed with gui

#1 10-22-2011, 04:12 PM

I need really help with these f***ing pop up windows in the GUI. I damn cannot click on it. Now on some online maps I would have to fly a plane that I do not want to just because I can not select another plane by clicking on the darn popup menue.

This is really driving me crazy

As these popup windows appear only in the GUI and not in the mission I cannot use the ingame screenshot button. Fraps does not work either, it just takes a screenshot from the screen as if these popup windows were not there.
(perhaps this may be linked to the cause of the problem, that these popup windows are somewhat not so much really there).

So I have made a picture with my old cell phone so the quality is really bad.

This is the popup window (FLUGZEUGWAHL translated to Plane selection) where this bug is the second most annoying (the most annoying is when I want to assign a key and I cannot click on the buttons in the popup menue for a specific keybind):

The menue window with the plane pictures in it is what I call a popup window or popup menue. I cannot click on anything within any popup window with my mouse after having played Clod for a while.

NOTA: after having played Clod for a few minutes this bug appears for ALL popup windows in the game (plane selection, exit popup windows from server and from game, keybinding popup menues, ...).

I can usually access the buttons in the popup menues (like ok, yes, cancel) by using TAB and ENTER. But when I am about to change a keybinding and I press TAB to access the OK button it overrides my initial keybinding and thinks I want to assign TAB to this function.

I also cannot access the little plane pictures in the plane selection popup windows by pressing TAB. So in the pictured popup plane selection menue I just can access the filter option and the close button with using TAB.

mh. I have a Logitech mouse and it works fine in ANY other application or game. It also works nice during the first minutes in Clod. And then stop doing so.

giving the peculiarity of your issue, maybe a reinstall its the best solution.

sorry, but rare issues are usually solved better that way.

I have some doubts if this will work as I had this issue with a clean install (no beta use before) but I will try.

Which folders would I have to delet manually after deinstallation?

Will I require the registration key for a reinstall? That'll be bad. It is still at a place 1000 km from here.

you will need to delete 1c folder at your documents. back keys at least, and pehraps conf.ini.

no need for cd key.

the process takes short time. i did a reeinstall in about 30 min
