Keyboard problems with gta sa, gta vc, etc

Post by linux »

Hello.
I am having trouble with gta sa gta 3 and gta vc.
When I enter any of those 3 games, the main character starts walking forward slowly.
None of my keys are stuck, i checked by unplugging the keyboard.
all the controls work fine, except walking backwards on foot, when i press s to walk backwards, instead of going backwards the character stops walking,
in all of the games, the character is not even running or sprinting, just walking.
car driving works fine.

i hope someone could help me out with this.

We could probably help you better if you post the following information:
- Linux name and version number
- Wine version number
- Winetricks overrides
- Wine command
- A terminal output

I managed to fix it by installing winetricks, thanks for the reply.

Maybe you could share which winetricks options have you used. This will help other people with the same problem.

I just installed it, and ran the winetricks command to verify that it has successfully installed. I didnt change anything in the options.
