In-game Esc key issues

Post by Call Sign: Cupcake »

Just started playing this mod and with my luck of course I have an issue.

Usually the Esc key is to back out to the menu but for some reason now when I press Esc key in game... it brings me to my desktop as if I'm pressing Alt+Tab. After that I can not use the Esc key to back out of the menu and get back in the game even though I'm still technically connected to the server I'm playing on.

I tested this on a Local server to see if it still happens and it does. Also noticed once this happens even if I close the game my keyboard configuration is wonky and re-mapped for some strange reason. I have to restart my computer to fix it but lo and behold when I'm back in-game if I press the Esc key to go to the menu the issues starts all over again.

Please someone help me out. I just installed this mod and just want to play for Pete's sake.

Not sure if it's helpful or informative but when I first installed and played on the Tactical Gamer server it was fine. The issues started when I connected to the PRTA (EU) server, I haven't tried any servers after that. I just want a solution hopefully, it's really frustrating.

UPDATE EDIT: Seems to be only when I join the PRTA (EU). I tried a couple of other servers just a moment ago and everything ran just fine. I'll just avoid playing on that server if that's my solution.

I've played on PC for years and this is by far the strangest issue I've ever had... nothing against the server though, I'm sure you guys are awesome but it just doesn't agree with me. :lol:

I think it's a compatibility issue I'm having with possible scripts on the server. Won't be able to play on PRTA until I learn how to fix that in particular but yeah I guess not playing on that server is a "fix" if you want to call it.
