Unsolved 4.37 Alternate Launcher Mouse Freeze
-
@airtex2019 said in 4.37 Alternate Launcher Mouse Freeze:
did this problem always happen for you, with Alt Launcher
YES! Since this new launcher was released and implemented, i’m having this issue.
I’m using the “old” launcher for flying falcon and the “old” launcher works fine
-
@danaos75 Oh i get it now…
When i enter in the Falcon (clicking on Launch button) the issue is gone… (yes, it closes the Alt Launcher window and enter in the Falcon)
So the issue is ONLY with the ALT launcher
-
@VDK I have some ideas but without ability to repro, I may not be able to help much.
One last (easy) test … if you use Task Manager to raise (or lower) the priority of FalconBMS_Alternative_Launcher.exe … does it make the mouse-stutter problem noticeably worse (or better)? Which direction helps/hurts?

Nothing changes

@VDK fascinating, thanks… I’ll have to think more deeply about this.
when I was at MS in early/mid 2000s, I worked on the input stack of WPF … I remember we did see problems like this, but that was single-core laptops with no hardware graphics acceleration, running WinXP … and with apps triggering animations on mouse-move over UI elements
your hardware is not new but it’s 20x more powerful than an early-2000s laptop! and the Alt Launcher doesn’t appear to be doing any of the things which triggered this kind of problem, back then.
so, I’m out of ideas, for now, but I feel a sense of ownership for a bug from 20 years ago that we thought we fixed I’ll continue to give it some thought.

Experiencing the AL freezing on 4.37 also. Can’t map keystrokes
Any fixes out there?

Hi, try to unplug all USB devices that are not needed, only mouse and keyboard and then start the alternative launcher and see if it gets stuck again and then plug in devices step by step.
-
I’ve tried the USB and it did not work, AL still freezes.
-
Sorry I read that wrong is your Mouse freezing or the Alternative Launcher ?
-
It is the AL freezing.
Similar to this post too

One more try, deactivate your network connection which you are using for the internet and start the AL, because one with your same CPU always had a freezing AL when it was connected to the internet, and without internet it worked right away.
Should look like this then
-
Unplugged the LAN cable and started the AL. AL is still freezing.

Okay thx for trying out

RSS news seem to be failing and thus creating issues…
Can you confirm that both:
