Problems with keyboard controls in Metro 2033 menus

[SolarAnthem]

I am having trouble with keyboard input in Metro 2033. Moving, environment interaction and combat all work fine but in menus the game doesn't do anything when the keyboard is used. This makes it impossible to change the controls and buy necessary equipment and ammunition at metro stations. I have tried setting dinput8 to native in winecfg but that breaks mouse input and doesn't solve the keyboard problem. One suggestion on Metro 2033's AppDB page (for Gentoo) was to disable d3d11 with winecfg but I didn't notice any changes from doing that. Terminal output:

Code: Select all

I removed all but one of the "fixme:d3d:wined3d_occlusion_query_ops_get_data *x******** Wrong thread, returning 1." errors for readability because there were over 150,000 of them. My PC specs:

Intel i3 2100
4GB RAM
EVGA GT630 2GB - driver version 331.67
Xubuntu 14.04 LTS
Wine 1.7.19 (also tested on 1.6.2)

Does anyone know how to fix this?

I have now tried with dinput set to native but that makes the game crash on startup. Running without a virtual desktop doesn't appear to make any difference. Compiling wine 1.5.4 (a comment on the AppDB page says this problem didn't occur then) is proving difficult. Are any .deb packages available for that version of wine?

I got wine 1.5.4 working but the game is crashing on startup with that version. I am not sure what else could be wrong. Has anyone got Metro's menu controls working before?

[SolarAnthem]

This problem persists in 1.7.20. I will test on 1.7.21 when that version makes it to the wine PPA.

[SolarAnthem]

No joy with 1.7.21. Can anyone help with this?

[dimesio]

The AppDB entry for Metro 2033 has a test for 1.7.21 that rates it silver and doesn't mention the problem you describe. It does mention some tweaks that you may not have tried yet. http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... ngId=85108

The only other thing I can think of is: are you using any keyboard switching program (e.g., SCIM, IBus, Xneur)? Those are known to conflict with keyboard input in Wine.

[SolarAnthem]

I have tried all the relevant tweaks and setting on the AppDB page without success and don't use and programs like IBus. There are no AppDB entries for debian based distros so I will try the game in a VM running Arch to see if my OS could be causing problems.
