Summary: Heavy Gear II, most of keys do not work ingame Product: Wine Version: 1.3.26 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: samurai_no_densetsu@yahoo.es
Recently tested Heavy Gear II and found that most of keys do not work ingame (although you can redefine them in the options menu), A to Z keys do not work, also do not numbers and function keys, but surpisingly, ctrl, tab arrow keys, keypad keys and pg up, pg down, home, end works, thing that makes the game almost playable.
I belive that the game requires dx6.1, but aside of this weird bug and setting wine as win98, the game is playable.

--- Comment #2 from Austin English austinenglish@gmail.com 2013-11-13 16:47:50 CST --- This is your friendly reminder that there has been no bug activity for 2 years. Is this still an issue in current (1.7.6 or newer) wine? If so, please attach the terminal output in 1.7.6 (see http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log).

--- Comment #5 from Martin Fontaigne martinrs@softhome.net --- Although this bug is closed/abandoned, I just have to add some closure to this bug.
I have found a solution with key input not responding, and it leads me to believe that it may be a bug in the game itself or buggy interaction with wine.
First, whenever you change control configuration, none of them actually gets activated. Even if you save the configuration (there are only two choices to save to: mydefault or myconfig) none of the changes work, and they are never loaded when game starts, and never activated even when manually loaded in the game.
But, the game always seem to use the configuration in the file bindings.def. The default binding obviously has key names that are not compatible with wine/X11 key names, so they never work.
So the workaround solution is as follows:
1. Start the game, then change control configuration in the game 2. Save configuration to mydefault or myconfig 3. Quit the game 4. Copy shell/bindings/myconfig.dff or shell/bindings/mydefault.dff (whichever you saved to) to bindings.def, overwriting it. 5. Start the game. 6. Voila! All the keys work perfectly.
Hope this helps others, and gives proper closure to a long-standing issue.
