I posted this on another thread, but you can work around the spacebar remapping issue by switching the keymap back to using spacebar as the activation key, then reloading the game. Thus if you have to hack something, you must quicksave, switch the keybinding, load your quicksave, do the hack, then switch your keybinding back (might want to save after the hack is complete).



I must admit for a company that usually puts out a pretty polished game, this is very disappointing. Not to mention I haven't seen a post anywhere from BioWare acknowledging this issue and saying they're working on it (such a post, or message may exist, I haven't seen it).



Anothing thing that shows lack of polish is that when the game tells you to press a button (for example "Press (f) to leave" it doesn't take into account the new key mapping so you have to figure out what the original key did and press your new key. Very sloppy, particularly for a BioWare game.

Both my windows res and in-game res is 1440 x 900. I should adjust this lower?

that what i had my set at previously. I then dropped my ingame res to the 800x600 and nothing changed. then i changed my windows resolution to 800x600 and kept the ingame at 800x600 and i havnt had the spacebar problem since. it may or may not work. but it worked for me.

I usually play at 1200x800 but when combat i drop it to 1024x768 so to target enemies .Sometimes works at 1200x800.Not to mention i didnt realize that there is auto target moving the camera to assign your squad their powers target at normal difficulty.At insanity i started figuring out something was really wrong.

[GodofEmperors]

I think we should all send Bioware a message, if they say not enough people are getting this problem.

This is truly pissing me off, I have been waiting since the game started and they are more or less ignoring all of us.

[margisfun1]

Still no idea on when a patch for this is coming out? Or any mention from Bioware acknowledging this? I have tried all these ideas and im stuck at the top of the stairs after you get your first party member.

[Lord_Merkin]

I am so bloody upset by this. I don't understand how my game can play wonderfully for 40 hours and then this problem pops up. I would LOVE to play ME2 again, but at this point, a playthrough is absolutely the farthest thing from my mind.

[s3eker]

I'm having the same problem :-( I can't "select" when trying to hack the terminal

[Lord_Merkin]

The esc-esc-space thing does work, but it's jarring. Also, if you're using any sort of powers, the bad guys have to be in your face before the reticule forms.

[Sandgathe]

The space bar issue is related to targeting - many items and targets in the game are extreamly hard to activate. This makes skills like Biotic Charge nearly impossible. So what to do? You can only activate an item if it has the "tick" blue box arround it. Not the thin red or blue one. The only work arround I know so far, and I've been looking, (since I want to Biotic Charge) is to press escape twice and then spacebar (or your remapped action key).

Well, it worked for a minute for me, and then stopped suddenly, very upsetting considering I had just gotten my gun finally Talked to a Guy from EA today and he wasnt sure about how true the statements about patches were...

[psyko_69]

Someone else should try calling EA. If enough people complain, they might figure it a big enough problem to get around to patching sooner rather than later.

things that go --- bump! -- fix it already!

I am a programmer at Bioware and I'm trying to repro this issue.



Please let me know the following things (please answer ALL the questions, not just 1!):

1) Have you re-bound the spacebar or the "use" command?

2) Can you still storm? (default control is to hold spacebar while moving)

3) Is your framerate low? (TAKE THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY, IT'S 99% LIKELY THE PROBLEM)

4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size?

5) Have you used any of the modification tools posted by other users? (There is no problem with doing so, I'm just wondering if its the source of the problem.)

[Thomas_R_Roy]

I just want to address some of the complaints also. Its not that we don't care about this bug. We just don't know what's wrong yet.

My guess is that your framerate is too low, or there is something wrong with your graphics driver. I can't get into specifics, but the game relies on the graphics card to determine if something was "visible recently". If your frame rate is low enough, then the game will never think something is "visible recently".

Please let me know anything relevant about your graphics card or graphics settings, including the framerate if possible. If the game is under 10 FPS, it may cause problems.

1. No
2. Yes
3. I installed Fraps right now and checked and yeah, when I play in a resolution above 800x600 the fps is about 6 or 7 when fighting the large mech in the first (post-Cerberus base) mission, at 800x600 it's at about 13 or 14. I don't have this problem when playing in 800x600, so it looks like the framerate is the problem in my case.
4. No
5. No

EDIT: Just tried replaying part of the final mission at 800x600 fullscreen after modifying the video settings a bit and managed to get the fps to stay between 10 and 15 and the problem went away. Not as pretty as playing 1200x800 but it makes biotic classes a lot more fun. (The first class I played was Sentinel and finally being able to see Throw curve through the air was just amazing. Thanks for replying to this thread, I never would have thought the problem was fps-related.)

1) Have you re-bound the spacebar or the "use" command?

No.

2) Can you still storm? (default control is to hold spacebar while moving)

Yes.

3) Is your framerate low? (TAKE THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY, IT'S 99% LIKELY THE PROBLEM)

Sometimes.  It depends on where I am. I don't know the exact number offhand, but it probably drops below ten FPS fairly often.

4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size?

Yes. I have messed with them all.

5) Have you used any of the modification tools posted by other users? (There is no problem with doing so, I'm just wondering if its the source of the problem.)

No, but I altered the mouse acceleration.

Please let me know the following things (please answer ALL the questions, not just 1!):
1) Have you re-bound the spacebar or the "use" command? Yes, did not work
2) Can you still storm? (default control is to hold spacebar while moving) Yes I can
3) Is your framerate low? (TAKE THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY, IT'S 99% LIKELY THE PROBLEM) I think it may be but am not sure, wouldnt be exaclty sure where to look sorry.
4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size? Yes. Both in Game and on my desktop
5) Have you used any of the modification tools posted by other users? (There is no problem with doing so, I'm just wondering if its the source of the problem.) No

[margisfun1]

1) Have you re-bound the spacebar or the "use" command? Yes, when spacebar wasn't working, tried changing, didn't work either.



2) Can you still storm? (default control is to hold spacebar while moving) Yes



3) Is your framerate low? (TAKE THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY, IT'S 99% LIKELY THE PROBLEM) No idea how to get an exact number on this.



4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size? Yes, tried different resolutions, doesn't help lowering it down.



5) Have you used any of the modification tools posted by other users? (There is no problem with doing so, I'm just wondering if its the source of the problem.) No. I'd mess something up.



Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 7100 / NVIDIA nForce 630i driver [8.17.11.9621]

[gambulator]

I have a GeForce 7600 GS card and the frame rate does seem to be the culprit. The problem occurs at 10 fps or below. At about 10 fps I get the flickering selection box; below that I can't get the highlighting to work at all, and it works just fine if I get up to 12 fps or better.



I don't know what can be done about it (other than getting a better video card) but thanks to Mr. Roy for the reply.

[Kyrono]

1st. Thomas thanks for letting us know the matter is being looked into, this has been a great stable game with the exception of this annoying issue.

I did some testing and finally was able to work around the issue and only one thing was different that made this start working , but the bug still remains in general when I reverse back to my settings.

1) Yes  (I'll cover this more below)
2) Yes
3) No (Runs smooth @ max settings, better than Mass Effect 1 on the Xbox)
4) Yes (Has no effect)
5) No (Clean Install)

For question #1, I switched the <Spacebar> in the past and it had no effect, but never closed my game completely and reloaded since the keys appeared to be bound and was able to properly USE/ITEM/SPRINT.

However tonight after shutting down the game with <Spacebar> bound to "Use/Sprint" and moved "Reverse" from <Spacebar> to <E Key>, then reloaded the game and... SUCCESS!

I tried this several more times to see if I could repeat the problem/fix and it works. After testing for fun, set my keys back to personal preferences and only in the hacking program was the use key failed to be recognized.

Nope.  I have the steam version DDE.

[hosermage]

 Is there a setting under \\Program Files\\Mass Effect 2\\BioGame\\Config\\PC\\Cooked\\coalesced.ini that we can adjust if our framerate is too low?

[Psyrex01]

1) Have you re-bound the spacebar or the "use" command?

I switched to "E", didn't work, switched back

2) Can you still storm? (default control is to hold spacebar while moving)

Yes

3) Is your framerate low? (TAKE THIS QUESTION SERIOUSLY, IT'S 99% LIKELY THE PROBLEM)

At first, with initial settings 7 FPS avg, after turning bloom etc off & switching to non-windowed 800x600 = 19 FPS (fraps.com for fps counter)

4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size?

Yes

Framerate at 1200x800 is fine..its playable....But apparently makes the mouse lag.If i change it to lower resolution 1024x768 mouse targets everything.I mean..this is serious..if u can move-play a game fine at some resolution and the mouse is lagging cause of the framerate.I havent seen it in any other game.in any case 1024x768 is not so pleasant.Finished the insanity difficulty and i am not thinking to play again..Disappointed.Until i purchase a better graphic card but i am not going to do it just for one game.I think the solution is somewhere between game's company and graphic's driver to be honest



4) Have you changed any graphics options other than screen size?Changed everything to lower grapchics to gain performance..Same thing
