Title: PC freezing
Post by: Trekker on January 16, 2005, 06:20:07 pm

Not really a bug or complaint but it did not do it b4 i started using open source version

When i hit the start button and return to destop everything fine but if i try and go back to freespace 2 open whole PC freezes.

Now b4 anyone says the awnser is not to go back to destop well ALT button right next to start, and alt has alot of uses and in the heat of battle i sometime knock start button as well.


I would really apreacte away to desable that during game play.

Thanks

Cobra2, who changed your title?

also are you using any additions? Have you created a new pilot?

Yeah wtf is with his title? A bit harsh.

Sadly short of hard coding a "disable start key" or "disable task switching" (a la Max Payne), you just gotta learn not to hit it. :)

lol found my own solution i got some carboard and built a cage around the start key, unless i really press it hard the box stops it getting pressed :)
