I can hit Y or T buttons in game and type anything, but cannot send it to the chat because "Enter" isn't working at all.
If I was killed I can send messages to the chat from "death" statistics screen, but if I'll select Spectate mode even Y and T buttons will stop working.

I've tryed to reset options, tryed to change "End Chat" key map, but it's not working.

Is it any posibility to fix this?

p.s. I was using 310 Nvidia drivers, but updated them to latest 314.22 after the message in the patch about 311 driver problems. It was all working without any problem before the 2 april patch.

p.p.s. Second minor problem is - if I'll change any option while being in game "Show Founders Tag" settings will reset to OFF state.

I am running current AMD drivers, with dual 5850 cards and three screens in Eyefinity. Same chat problem and same bug with the in-game options deleting my Founders Tag, then I have to flag it again out of match.

Maybe ive found the source and a "solution":

(Only theory caus ive seen it after reinstall)
I think its about a custom hotkey setup or a non up to date actionmaps.xml etc.
  • After the launching of the new hotkeys "Toggle Arm Lock" and "Center Legs" i missed them in the options screen. Now after reinstall they are available.
  • I reconfigured the default actionmaps.xml to get a toggle button for TAG (pressing once for activate it the whole game). Now this configuration is not available any more. The default and the players profile configuration files have changed.
Maybe there is a problem with conversion while the change of the files was introduced (last patch?).

It could be interesting if such a "old" toggle button still works on an old install at current version.

Solution using the sledgehammer: Reinstall and reconfigure.

I guess moving the players and the default config files will help too. (dont forget the ones in windows user account)
U have to reconfigure.

I've confirmed that this was due to the "always on TAG" modification I did a while back. I deleted the custom defaultProfile.xml that I got from the forums and the issue went away.

Sometimes my messages are delayed, sometimes no message at all, and times when somehow the message gets sent twice when I only typed it once.

Battlegrid not working in Spectate either.
