After a second test from the reseller and some tips from the manufacturer, they found out the keyboard was broken.
So they gave me a new one and everything is fine now...
Damn, I don't know what would be causing this then. :( I've never heard of this issue before, so I'm kinda suspecting it's an issue with that specific keyboard, somehow. Kunnen het gesprek trouwens de volgende keer net zo goed in het Nederlands houden, volgens mij... :D As I said earlier (I think):...
I'd recommend uninstalling the drivers for a bit to see if that fixes it. Some technical info on how ManiaPlanet detects keypresses by the way, if it helps you troubleshoot - it's using DirectInput for all keyboard inputs rather than relying on window messages. So if your keyboard driver does weird...
Maybe worth mentioning:
The UpArrow keys reconnects after a second. Like it lost it's connection, reconsiders and then finds out: "Heck! I'm still pressed! Sorry!" and then continues.
Maybe not related, but... anyway, maybe it helps: I have ManiaPlanet configured to use the arrow keys (Up, Down, Left and Right) as usual for driving, but also W, S, A and D (for left hand). If I hold the ArrowUp key to accelerate and want to switch to the left hand and hold W together with the Arr...
Almost sounds like it's not a mechanical keyboard, but you claim it works in other scenarios so that's weird. Have you tried resetting all input settings to their defaults? Do you have any drivers installed for the keyboard? They claim it's a mechanical keyboard. And it only happens in the Maniapla...
Hi, Bought myself a Roccat Vulcan 120 keyboard, just to find out that the arrow keys malfunction in TrackMania. I use the default keys for throttle, left and right (the arrow keys), but when I hold the throttle key (UpArrow) and then steer left or right or break (in my case the "Q"-key), t...
But the leaderboards don't really function anyway. My SP's sometimes drop a few thousand points and then after a while they rise again. On some tracks (I noticed it in Canyon, but I guess the same story goes for the other envi's) European players are not shown in the world ranking (Canyon B08 Alvin)...
Personally I think it's just a mindset. The other night I saw my son scoring author medal after author medal in the very first runs of every track, while I was struggling to even get through the first corner of A01... I have my drivers licence, my son doesn't yet (only 16) and for me it just doesn't...
