Cant jump when i press w+a, Someone help!
« on: February 23, 2008, 02:22:39 PM »
I recently picked up a new gaming computer, the Apevia X-Plorer, everything about it is new.

I just redownloaded digital paint, because I havent played it in a while and when I'm playing I can't strafe because I can't jump when holding down w+a (forward+left diagonally).

This is obviously a problem  as it's pretty hard to play without a left strafe.

ALso, I can strafe the other direction, it's just when I use w+a. What should I do?

                   Thanks, Shockk

delete your config and try playing again?

Its the wiring on the keyboard itself.  The only thing that will fix it is another keyboard.

He could bind jump to the right mouse, that would alleviate some of the problem, but not fix it.

I had a similar problem on my laptop.  I had to shift everything over 1 key.  Unfortunately certain key combinations simply don't work on some keyboards.

Is it a bluetooth keyboard?  Some wireless keyboard and mice have this problem.

It's part of the Logitech MX3200 package, and yes the package is wireless. I don't know if it's Bluetooth or not.

its a common problem with cheap keyboards, cause you cant press more than 3 keys at the same time....just try another keyboard like a SteelKeys one of the best keyboards or another one at the same price or quality.
