Ashington Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Gamebreaking issue for me. I am getting stuck in certain menus and cannot get out of them. Hitting Tab doesn't work. Hitting ESC doesn't work. Hitting everything/anything doesn't work and I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL to get out and start over. The first time it happened to me, it happened on the World Map. I accidentally clicked the world map and got to the place where you set a marker/waypoint. After it is placed the following screen appears: http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc219/FIU071972/screen1skyrim.jpg When I see this screen, I know I'm screwed. No matter which of those three choices I click (Remove It, Leave It, Move It) absolutely NOTHING happens. None of the options at the bottom of the screen work, either. I am completely stuck on this screen and have to shut down the client and restart to get back in (usually I have lost progress when this happens). I assumed that it was limited to the World Map screen so I decided I'd be super careful and not do that again and maybe everything would be okay. However, I tried Alchemy and got the same thing: http://i218.photobucket.com/albums/cc219/FIU071972/alch1skyrim.jpg Clicking "OK" there does nothing, hitting TAB does nothing and once again I am stuck and have to shut down the client to get out of there. Note that the screen is not locked up here...I can freely move my cursor and click til my heart's content (the choices even indicate that they have been selected when I click on them, just nothing happens). I assumed that it was a simple matter of reassigning hotkeys but I cannot find where to do this for menus. I even tried installing SkyUI but it is still messed up. Someone please help!

gsmanners Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Modal dialogs work fine here. Maybe you should be chatting with someone at Bethesda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashington Posted March 1, 2012 Author Share Posted March 1, 2012 Yeah that's what I'm trying. So far, no luck there either. I'm thinking this problem may be unique...I have so far been unable to find anything remotely resembling it anywhere. The weird thing is that I can still move the cursor in those screens. It's not like the game has frozen or anything. I can alt-tab in and out and I even get the little selection indicator when the cursor rests on one of those options. It's just that NOTHING HAPPENS when I click in ANY menu. If there are "Yes" or "No" options in the menus, I can't just click "Yes" or "No" to select an option. I have to hit the Y or N keys. Unfortunately that ONLY works on menus where the options are limited to "yes" and "no," otherwise nothing happens at all (for example, hitting "O" for "OK" does nothing).

gsmanners Posted March 2, 2012 Share Posted March 2, 2012 Yes. This game has serious accessibility issues on top of everything else. Then again, the UI was designed with a brain-dead "one size fits all" approach (and you see how well that works in reality). Have you tried using a different mouse? Maybe it's just your mouse buttons going bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
