First of all I already searched the forum, but didn''t found a solution to my problem.
Secondly acquiering of the keyboard worked fine a couple of days ago, with the same code
now my problem when I try to acquire the keyboard the first time it fails
so I added this code :
if FAILED(g_hr = g_lpDIKeyboard->Acquire())
{
Write2Log("Acquiring of keyboard failed, trying again") ;
g_hr = g_lpDIKeyboard->Acquire() ;
if (FAILED(g_hr))
{
g_hr = g_lpDIKeyboard->Acquire() ;
while(g_hr == DIERR_INPUTLOST)
g_hr = g_lpDIKeyboard->Acquire() ;
Write2Log("Keyboard acquired") ;
} // end of if
//return false ;
} // end of if
else
{
Write2Log("Keyboard acquired") ;
} // end of else
btw in my Log file it says : "Acquiring of keyboard failed, trying again" and then "Keyboard acquired"
later I get the same error when I try to acquire the mouse
so there I also added the same code
now in my menuloop I have this code :
void MenuInput()
{
g_lpDIKeyboard->GetDeviceState(sizeof(buffer),(LPVOID)&buffer) ;
if (KEYDOWN(buffer, DIK_ESCAPE))
{
// when pressing escape, exit game
g_CGE_GameState = kill ;
}
if (KEYDOWN(buffer, DIK_UP) && bKeyUp)
{
// when pressing arrow up
nMenuChoice = nMenuChoice - 1 ;
if (nMenuChoice < 0) nMenuChoice = 2 ;
bKeyUp = true ;
}
else
{
bKeyUp = false ;
}
if (KEYDOWN(buffer, DIK_DOWN) && bKeyDown)
{
// when pressing arrow down
nMenuChoice = nMenuChoice + 1 ;
if (nMenuChoice > 2) nMenuChoice = 0 ;
bKeyDown = true ;
}
else
{
bKeyDown = false ;
}
} // end of MenuInput()
and in my loop I can''t use the keyboard anymore again
and a couple of days ago all worked fine (then I added code for creation of fonts)
if any1 could help me out here I would really apreciate it
thanx in advance
