[SOLVED] mouse abilities won't work
« on: July 24, 2012, 04:32:05 pm »
hello everyone.
a have a big problem here, as indicated in the title, my mouse work, but when i trie to use the clics, it won't cast any of my abilities.
It worked just fine the first time i played the game, then i tried different changes in the basic configuration without problems but at one point, without any apparent reason, i couldn't get it to work anymore.
i tried to reset the control, even reinstall the game, no succes.
I'm out of ideas here and i will welcome any suggestion.

FYI, i do have a pad (G15) but it worked just fine at the beginning, and also, i have the game via steam.

Thank you

If the problem started after you messed with the configuration, my guess is that you have other keys/buttons assigned to the same function. Go through your configuration again to make sure this isn't the case.

If you post the inputbindings.dat (NOT settings.dat) from your (avww)/RuntimeData/ directory we can take a look and see what's different from the normal config and if it might be interfering with your using the mouse to trigger stuff.  Sorry about the inconvenience :)

It looks like all the use-mouse-ability binds have been unbound.  Here's what I suggest:
1) In the game, go to the settings window
2) Click on the "View and Edit Controls" button
3) At the bottom is a button with the text "Load Selected Bindings"; first make sure the dropdown next to it says "Keyboard + Mouse" and then click the load-selected-bindings button and confirm it.

Now you should have mouse bindings again :)

That's exactly what i've done already when i said i had reset my bindings :(
I tried another time, just to be sure, but it's still the same :(
i don't know if it matters or not but (i'm in the very beginning of the game), on the top left corner of both ball lightling and fire touch there is a "L1", no matter wich place they are on the bar.

whan you say that it looks like the use mouse ability bind are unbound, do you speak about these lines?

KeyBinding:Ingame_MouseAbility1_UKB1|None|None|None|None|Mouse0|None|None|10

Oh, those are bound, nevermind.  Weird, they should be working.  Hmm.

If you don't see how to fix it, that's no big deal, but can you tell me how to completly erase all the content of the game so i can do a fresh install? I have the game on steam by the way.
thank you

I suggest saving your RuntimeData/Worlds/ directory as that has your saves (but not your settings), but up to you.

Anyway, to do a completely fresh install:
- in steam, right click AVWW and then click "Delete Local Content" and confirm that.
- from your OS's file system, go to steam/steamapps/common/ and delete the "a valley without wind" directory if it's still there.
- in steam, right click AVWW and then click "Install Game..."

Once its done, you should be back to a 100% fresh install of 1.2.  You may want to test a new world there before running the beta updates to get to 1.203.

reinstalling completely the game AND removing the game folder before reinstalling did the trick.
Thanks for your help.

My pleasure :)  Sorry the reinstall was necessary, I dunno what happened.  But good that it's fixed now :)
