Hello!

Im posting on behalf of a friend whom I asked to try MWO. He runs Windows 8 64 bit.

The issue appears to be any clicking or mouse movement he does in game occurs on his desktop and on any other program windows he has running in the background. He also cant use any talk keybinds on Teamspeak without Alt/Tab directly to that program.

I have never seen this issue myself, or heard of it happening to anyone else. So I dont know how to help him. And I am a bit embarrassed that I hyped up how great MWO is, and this is his first experience. Do any of you have suggestions for a fix?

If he's playing in window mode, minimize everything behind the game window, als make sure to tab in and out and re-maximize the game window only.

The mouse should have focus on the game window only after that, exceptions are the mechlab and drop screen.... but after you got in a match, the mouse should stay inside the MWO window.

Works for me.
