Hello,

When I switched over to the new 64-bit client, I found that I could not control Overwolf and the game at the same time. I used to be able to click around in the MWO client, then use my Overwolf hotkey to bring up TeamSpeak, but now I have to use two hotkeys: one to transfer control to Overwolf and then my regular one. Not a huge deal, but still a pain. Is there a way to fix this?

Same here,but we might have to notify overwolf staff instead of PGi.

Hey there!

Name's Raif, the Overwolf Community Manager.

We haven't checked the 64 bit client just yet so if it's working, it's cause of luck. We'll be adding support for it soon though.

Could this be related to administrative settings?

Noticed it as well as I dropped in a match without being able to move my mech. Wasn't even able to use any other keyboard buttons. Could only turn my mech and fire my weapons at spawn point.
Glad that Overwolf is looking into this.

To be specific ,in In-game control ,if i select : Control Overwolf when game cursor.... . It will not work ,I have to use "Shift + F1" every time i want to use Overwolf.

Also ,Cant see Overwolf cursor when i'm in a match.

This only happen when using MWO's 64 -bit Client.

Same here. I upgraded to the 64-bit client, and I cannot move my omnimechs when Overwolf is running. It is very annoying.

Isn't Overwolf TS spyware? The older version of TS had an overlay built into it without the need for Overlord.

If your going to be paranoid. Would not the better option be for a software group to include spyware in the main component that everyone would install, as opposed to the complementary program that a smaller percentage of the users will be installing?
Also, flip the tinfoil inside out, the current configuration is only amplifying the signals being sent into your brain.
