Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
My avatar cannot fire any weapon while moving backwards.
Is there a way to correct this glitch?

Re: Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
There is something wrong with your browser/OS (probably a predefined shortcut).Dorsai wrote:My avatar cannot fire any weapon while moving backwards.

The first step to debug this is to change the movement keys.
For example, set the Cursor keys instead of WSAD and see if you get rid of this issue.

you need to click on the save button as well. And sometimes with new updates, you need to set they keys again and save them :)Dorsai wrote:Changed keys, still have the problem.

HI supreme,
So you're retired. I had been wondering where you were.
Here is my login process:
First, I change the movement keys to my preferred pattern.
Next I login.
Then I always save the key changes.
Then comes the process of choosing an avatar, camp, play.
Still can't fire when moving backward.
My browser version is IE-8.0.6001.18702

lets try your key thing in different way,
clear history, load game, login , change and save the keys and then play
then check if you can. if you still have problem then try checking in some other browser lets say chrome,
try different settings of mouselook in starting menu.
if problem still exist then better to check your shockwave version and updates

Re: Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
Did all of the above (except did not try different settings of mouselook in starting menu) and added Firefox to the mix - but no joy.clear history, load game, login , change and save the keys and then play then check if you can. if you still have problem then try checking in some other browser lets say chrome,try different settings of mouselook in starting menu.
Will try different mouselook settings.
Shockwave is current.

Re: Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
Make sure you have downloaded shockwave full & not slim.
Uninstall shockwave (full or slim) and download shockwave full.
If that don't work, uninstall browser & shockwave. Install browser and shockwave full again.
Remus recommends IE 6/7/8
If that don't work, then your computer is slow in some way (graphics card or processor).
If you have a fast PC, then it might be buggy
I maybe wrong, but Good luck.

I told you to redefine the keys and to use "standard" keys.Dorsai wrote:Did all of the above (except did not try different settings of mouselook in starting menu) and added Firefox to the mix - but no joy.

Shockwave is current.
But you didn't change anything.
You have the same abnormal keys config:
E - Forward
R - Back
W -Turn Left
S - Turn Right
A - Strafe Left
F - Strafe Right
The R key is reserved for DS.
How can you play with those keys anyway?

Re: Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
Those keys seem to fit my hand better and having to use the Right arrow and Left arrow is awkward for me to do.
However, now that I understand what you mean, I will try the "standard" key config and let you know if it works.

In other words, you canNOT use it for something else.

To see if you can fire when moving backwards.
The "standard" keys for moving are WSAD.

Re: Weapons Cannot Fire When Moving Backwards
Thanks to all who made such helpfull suggestions and especially to Remus. My avatar is much more effective now that it can fire while moving backwards.
"R" is not for reverse any more.
