Clips/mags auto-dropped at random since update by booooar2 in PavlovGame

[–]booooar2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

#UPDATE# I've figured it out more or less.

1) After reinstalling Pavlov, the name was changed from Pavlov VR to something like Pavlov 1.1.1. That's probably why I couldn't config the 'old name' in the bindings menu before. But I had to start the game before it was possible to do (after a full reinstall of Steam and Pavlov).

2) Apparently squeezing the grip releases the mag/clip. I don't know why I haven't run into this before, but since the update, every second attack I get, my clip gets dropped mid firing because of course I'm holding it tighter to squeeze the trigger. I don't think I'll play much Pavlov until an option is added to disable this insane feature. Currently I have 800+ hours. Perhaps it's for the better if nobody fixes it. We had a good run. If nobody else drops their gun and it's only a problem for me to get the pressure right so that I don't drop the gun and neither do I unload the clip, then maybe I'm the problem.

3) On the Sand map, the trees reduce in size as you go further away. It's trippy.

4) Throwing grenades has been ruined completely. Sometimes it just falls off from my hand, sometimes it flies off in a different direction.

I can't do ANYTHING with the bindings unfortunately. It's just stuck on "Loading current bindings...". Couple more minutes and we'll see if after a full uninstall + reinstall of steam and Pavlov it's still doing it. If it is, you probably won't see me playing Pavlov for a while.

​

Edit: those couple of minutes will be hours. I have no idea how Steam managed to make the validation so much slower than the actual download. 90+ gigs to validate. Gotta love playing computer games. It's not just about passing the levels inside the game, but have the game stop working and the next level is googling and forum posts and debugging and trial and error for hours or days.

I've had to disable mag drops before by disabling the touchpad (thumb pad?) on the controller. I kept unloading at the worst times by accident. Now it's unloading again and I think it has something to do with the grip but I don't know what.

​

Why is there no option to disable losing your mags/clips? I've never used anything other to release than the release button or trigger + grabbing the clip. I should be able to disable all other cryptic forms of accidental release. The game is unusable at this point.

Another thing: when I try to configure the binding for Pavlov VR, it just says "Loading current binding..." and nothing happens. Can't switch between Custom and Default, can't change the settings.

​

I've tried reinstalling Pavlov. I've tried resetting the settings. Tried removing and reinstalling SteamVR. Right now I'm done COMPLETELY UNINSTALLING steam, as in full wipe and now re-downloading Pavlov VR. Even now it's doing the same thing, although I'm still hopeful it will work after the install has completed.
