Escape Key

[Icedawg]

I just played a 3+ hour session of FS13 and had my "Escape" key die. I couldn't save the game, so I had to close out from Task Manager - losing all my work for the past three hours!

Also, all of the number keys took me to the desktop rather than adjusting the speed of the vehicle.

Any ideas what could have caused this?

In addition, is there any way to save the game without using the Escape key?

Unless your ESC key is proken physically, it's most likely a bugged mod causing troube.
As always: check your LOG file. http://wiki.landwirtschafts-simulator.d ... tig_posten

No physical problem with the Esc key. I restarted the game, and it worked fine.

Here's the LOG file.

Lots of warnings there. Could they have something to do with it?

bassaddict - do you think I should just reinstall the game, updates and mods (minus those with warnings listed in the LOG file)?

[bassaddict]

Reinstalling wouldn't change a thing. Just keep your mods folder as clean as possible. With that weak GPU you should avoid mods as much as possible, anyway.

[Icedawg]

Off to get a new graphics card. Hopefully that will fix the issue.

Thanks for the help.
