German keybaord problems (Win XP)

Hi all,

I've problem with the pledge chat. Once hitting the @-Symbol (ALT GR + Q) the chat line only allows a single character, any new char overwrites the last one. After that it is not possible to write more than one character to the chat line and only quit & restart helps then.

Is there a work around for this problem? Or is any other player using a german keyboard on Win XP to play Lineage?

Thanks.

Hi all,

well, we found a solution. Instead of pressing ALT GR + Q to get the @-symbol you can press CTRL+ALT+Q (in that specific order) to get it. CTRL+ALT also 'resets' the keyboard if you have pressed ALT GR before.

I'm on Mac so I'm not that deep into Win XP but for me it looks like a system config problem. Is there a special configuration setting for the ALT GR key under Windows XP?

At least pledge chat works now :)


that happens to me often my

that happens to me often my fix is (ctrl + x) (the thing that allows you to cast only spells and the last one u used with out hotkey) so whenever that happens i just hit (ctrl + x) 2 times turning it on and off and the problem goes away. But i use english keyboard
