Go to Software Update in your Apple menu and install the 10.6.4 update and the Snow Leopard Graphics Update, along with anything else you find in there. Keep going to Software Update until you have everything.

What keyboard layout are you using?


RE: Cannot move - Dantenello - 09-11-2010

Upgraded to version 10.6.4.

Still no changes Sad

I am using US keyboard layout. OS language is russian.

Game was downloaded from STEAM.

BTW, i have the same behavior in demo version.

UPDATE : I tried to change action buttons in keyboard config, but every "letter" button is recognized as "None".
It is ok with digits and buttons like Space.

Really strange.. I tried changing my OS language and input methods to Russian on my machine and can't recreate..

Do you have any application installed that might interfere with keyboard input?

Have you tried creating a new user and running the game as that user?

I have the same problem, but it was resolved by changing system language from russian to english. When I change a language to russian, the problem appears again.


RE: Cannot move - Urkle - 10-01-2010

NobodyN,

Did you have to log out and back in to see the change? or did it happen on next launch?

And this is the "Languages & Text" System preference section and the "Language" tab. with Russian as the first preferred language?


RE: Cannot move - Urkle - 10-01-2010

Now that is the STRANGEST thing I have ever seen.. After I log out and back in then it breaks. It looks like it is a side-effect of an EVIL EVIL EVIL EVIL kludge in SDL. I think I've found a workaround but it's not very pretty.


RE: Cannot move - Urkle - 10-01-2010

OK.. I made it prettier.. At least if you use the USA keyboard input method.

After changing a system language, I rebooted the computer to make sure, that all settings are changed. Now, I have an English interface, but all working.

Yes, problem appear, when russian is the first preferred language. If it's an english, all works ok.
