****PLEASE READ EDIT!****


Hi, when i go into my Mech Lab I cant select any mechs, click the orange arrow to scroll to other Mech bays, or click loadout on currently selected mechs.

Any Ideas?

****EDIT: Turned V-Sync back on and it seems to have fixed the problem.****

i can confirm that the mech lab tab is not functioning. only way to select and play is through the home page...thankfully for me i only have 2 owned mechs.

this issue needs to be fixed ASAP because for those with more then 4 mechs selected this is a really anouying problem for those who A want to buy a mech and B possible play a trial mech or select a mech from their list of mechs they own.

also just checked. cant touch the pilot lab.

I'm not encountering this bug, thankfully. I have 16 mechs and 19 mech bays. I will say that the responsiveness of the mech bay has significantly improved from a 10 second load time between mechs to around 1 second. Thank you!

Just logged in after patching and didn't find this problem... Was able to access pilot lab, unlock efficiencies and select all mechs in mech bay.

For me, it seems to happen when you change game modes.

[New Breed]

It's caused by changing game modes.. I posted about it earlier, but I can't seem to see where it went. I think I might have posted it under the old notes or something

Confirmed. I can use the mechlab until I change the gamemode, then I can only select the mechalb, nothing in it.

Yes, verified. This happens 100% of the time and can not be reverted. Client must be restarted.

I guess this is one way for PGI to force users to play "all" modes instead of selectively lol.

[New Breed]

You can work around it by just playing 1 match with whatever mech you had selected before changing game modes.

After the first match, it's back to normal.After you restart the client though it breaks again.

Same problem here.
Can choose and change the Mech in the Mech bay, but after changing the game mode it is NOT possible to choose a mech.

That's not really an acceptable work around. Product needs to be reverted to previous iteration or fixed asap.

[M0rpHeu5]

I have the mechlab problems too

Okay.. it's not that game breaking man.

[VgerRD]

So I'm guessing turning V-Sync BACK ON doesn't work for anyone but me?

I made an Edit in my first post.

Possible workaround:

When/if this happens to you after selecting Game Mode, click the Social button, then close (X out) the social frame.

Voila, back to normal.

nevermind... it's tied directly to the game modes switch

So after three different trys I`m still have problems. When I`m in mech lab I select what game style I want. Then when I go to click something else inside the mechlab screen it wont allow me to select it. Nothing highlights, and anything opened onto the screen I cant select like menu`s. I have to exit out of game and reload to get it to work again and it still goes when I select the game type. Anyone else noticed this?

[Cobaltblue]

Yes have had the same issue, the problem is not just with Mechlab but also Pilot Lab. The problem persists no mater how many times I exit and reload, I have found that it is possible to get arround the issue by selecting the game style before the mechs load in (that is the 4 boxes on the left are still empty), if that is done Mechlab & Pilot Lab function correctly, however if the game style selection drop-down menu is opened at any point after the mechs load in the problem occures .

[VgerRD]

I made a thread about this earlier, I fixed it by turning V-Sync BACK ON in the options menu. If you try my method and it works or doesn't work for you, please report back with any findings. Thank you.
