Problem with keyboard in UT

Post by Omega9 »

I'm running XP Pro on my system and for some reason the keyboard will stop responding in UT - I can still alt-tab back to windows, but I can't change weapons with the keys (can with wheel on the mouse though), can't move but can still fire/jump. After about 30 secs - minute of this UT will crash back to windows.

This happens randomly - It can do it in the first 5 minutes of a game or I can play for 2 hours with no problems when it happens again. This happens on different maps, different mods.

Has anyone else had this problem or know of a fix for it?

No, I have never heard of it. But next time when it happens, send me your unrealtournament.log (in your unrealtournament/system dir) to be at jb@planetunreal.com and I can take a look to see if there is anything out of place...

I've changed over to using opengl instead of direct3d for video and that seems to have made the game run more stably, but how can I increase the brightness using opengl? - I was just playing on ctf-diamondsword and I couldn't see any of the other players/bots at the other end of the bridge because it was too dark

Update
I downloaded the beta opengl driver from unreal.epicgames.com and I now have brightness control
