Keyboard isn't recognised

When I load up GZDooM my keyboard works fine for navigating the menus but when I actually start the game the keyboard just isn't recognised. This only just recently started: it started happening sporadically and I would have to quit and reload the game for it to work. Now it happens every time. I have tried another keyboard and I also have a zboard Fang.

Just to clarify the keyboard doesn't respond at all. It isn't just movement keys it also includes the escape, tilde and every other key pertinent to the game. The only way I can quit is to alt-tab out of the game and then use the task manager to close the program.

I think you screwed up your configuration. Reset it to the defaults in the menu and report back if that still doesn't work.

Without any feedback I can't help here.

Sorry for the delayed response. I only got one notification this morning (I'm in the UK).

I reset it to the defaults but it made no difference. However, I deleted my ini file and allowed GZDooM to generate a new one. Although I had tried this before, and failed, it seems to have worked this time. I have no idea why it worked this time and not before - I tried it a few times out of frustration not knowing what else to do. Thanks for your patience, P.

I'll keep an eye on it and see if it happens again.
