*Sorry, posted in wrong section* If you google "can't shoot while moving" - you'll see many people encountering the exact same problem. Turns out it's a windows system-driver problem which only happens with certain laptops running certain software - coppercube being one of them Sound strange but there appears to be a bug in Coppercube... if you're left-handed. I have my mouse set to left handed. When I run a game that uses the 1st person camera, I can't shoot while I'm moving - only when stationary. If I set my mouse to right-handed, or if I press 'alt', it works fine (can shoot while walking). I guess the Coppercube API is looking for a hardware ID for the mouse-clicks, rather than the assigned keycode? A workaround (if you're confident enough to do it) is to take your laptop apart and re-solder the connections of the touchpad buttons to swap left-for-right- or learn to use your right-hand instead (feels really awkward) - or plug in a USB mouse and disable the touchpad completely. Any chance of a software fix/update for us lefties please? Thanks. |

Fixed it! There's an entire history of problems with synaptic drivers - one of their updates decided to disable mouse-clicks for 3 seconds after any key is been pressed. After reading through forum suggestions, I installed http://tp_Synaptics_v19_3_4_193_... and it fixed the problem. Good to know if anyone else encounters the same problem - it'll be a problem for Coppercube users who have an MSI/Dell/Lenovo etc laptop and like to keep their drivers up-to-date. That explains why first person games weren't working for me - couldn't shoot with mouse click if key was pressed. |
