I just got my new computer, and now WA is acting weird, when on 800x600 resolution, the picture wont follow me, so i should use mouse and that makes it impossible. Well in bigger resos it works most of the time. Then when i try to rope, or do quick moves, like press space 3 times very fast and then enter example, it wont register all the keys I press, and I cant play cos of that either... Then finally, WA crashes all the time, doesnt matter where I enter, I have 80% chance to get a crash, like '' WA has noticed an error and it must be closed, click here to send a report, or click here to not send a report ''

What is this all about and anything on the problems that are fixable ?

System specs are : Intel Pentium 2.66 Ghz, 1024mb ram, Ati Radeon X1300 512mb

The first two problems sound like bad keyboard problems.

To the first problem: Make sure Scroll Lock is disabled. If Scroll Lock is enabled, the viewport doesn't automatically scroll with the action. Also, make sure your left mouse button isn't being held down, as that does the same thing.

To the second problem: That sounds like you're either getting bad screen lag (during which, keystrokes do not register), or you are pressing too many keys simultaneously, and your keyboard circuitry doesn't handle it properly. To test for keylocks, a program which works nicely for me is KeyboardTest (http://www.passmark.com/products/keytest.htm). Try pressing combinations of keys simultaneously and see if they are all registering with the computer.

To the third problem: I really don't know.

Ok problem one solved, I have feature in msn that scroll lock flashes if someone sends me a message, useful if im in game, after it stops flashing the scroll lock stays on, so that was the problem.

On seconds, the program registers all I press but I just cant rope, it doesnt register all I do and I cant do even shadow lol...crap

And wa still keeps having random crashes..

On seconds, the program registers all I press but I just cant rope, it doesnt register all I do and I cant do even shadow lol...crapSo, are you saying that's human error, not software error? It sounded like you contradicted yourself. First, you said, "the program registers all I press", then you said, "it doesnt register all I do". Which is the truth?

By the way, to remedy the crashing, you may want to upload a crash report (which you can view and copy from the crash dialogue, I think) somewhere like privatepaste.com (http://privatepaste.com), so some 1337 Worms Armageddon developer like CyberShadow could take a look at it.

Also, to remedy the crashing, close programs one by one and play WA between each closing to see what program(s) are causing the crashes.

i think he means he doesnt press the keys on his keyboard hard/fast enough... hence the program working fine yet not what he thought happens.

LoL, I was good roper, 2 weeks ago with my old pc. When I tried to program and tapped all keys...it did register all I push, but when on rope at wa, and I swing myself forward and tap space, it just doesnt register all I press causing that I will fall obviosly...

At keyboard options I did set that keyboard sensitivy is highest and stuff, it doesnt help at all...


Gonna try now what causes the crashing..


Ok, it seems it was Messenger causing the crashes, so only one problem remains..and the most important

Maybe your keyboard isn't registering button presses when you hold two or more keys down at the same time. Infact there are two other threads regarding the same problem on the W:A forum (this is the more relevant one (http://forum.team17.co.uk/showthread.php?t=31152)).

Yeah that sounds like it, but the thread doesnt help me at all, so am I supposed to buy a new keyboard then. Any suggestions what kind of ? It should be a bit cheap at least..I dont have much money

Buy a USB one, and if the shop will let you, test it out beforehand. Microsoft ones themselves work well for me (ie the combinations work), but try to get a wired one; the wireless ones are crap.

Ehm this is new keyboard, with new computer i got 2 weeks ago, and with old **** kb i was able to rope. And it is USB keyboard and it is wired...

cheap USB keyboards also suffer from the keyboard limitation...

and, the features you mentioned with messenger causing the game to crash seem o be related NOT to messenger directly but to something else youve got installed... maybe messenger plus? because i dont recall the features you said are in the official messenger.

Get a wired USB Logitech Internet Navigator; preferably without F-Lock.

I didnt have MSG Plus yet installed when it were crashing, so it might be Live Messenger or MessengerDiscovery add-on to LiveMessenger

I use Windows Live Messenger while playing WA, and I get no problems. It may be MessengerDiscovery, indeed, considering that I don't use that.
