Sorry for creating again this thread but i have again this really annoying and frustrating bug for chat.

I already reported previously and again here but i didn't have real answers...

This is very frustrating because i can't comunicate with others in chat.
It happened before as you can see but it was slightly different. Before i could use chat by joining spectators, now it's impossible. I even noticed that if i am in an elite server and i try pressing the teamchat key it spams 7 lines with no text. It's a pity because it was fixed from beta 2 and now it appears again, stronger than ever. I now that has something to do with overlays like xfire or steam but i already tried playing without these and nothing changed.

Simply remap your keys - assign Y or whatever you want for team chat (has to be other than global chat) and voila.

Then it obviously has nothing to do with those overlays then? I mean, if playing without them didn't help that is.

i think that something is now corrupt and even running the game without the overlays doesn't help

up?

What is your keyboard?
Did you try to reinstall maniaplanet from your player page?

I tried that, there is apparently nothing that can bring me back to where the bug doesn't occur. My keyboard is a logitech g15; i havent tried a reinstall yet, i am keeping that for the last chance...

as written also here, i fixed my problem; it was caused by my arcade stick joystick being plugged and going conflict with my keyboard.

Good news
Thank you for having reported how you fixed your issue, that can be useful for other players
