The Shaft Aiming Bug - Solution!

[magnaboy2 656]

Hey all,for those with not so good PCs that can't play on a fullsized TO window with shaft I've got a solution.

So yea this is how it looks first as you can see in the 1st post


To get rid,you need to play on a full window like this;

But some computers can't handle that...

So here's what you do,instead of minimizing TO window,just minimize your browser and leave TO as big as you can :lol:

You get the same FPS as you do when you make it smaller when the browser is at full screen and when you compare the 1st and the 3rd pic,you can see that the TO window is pretty much the same size! You can also have another window open next to it like Skype or something for fun :lol: xD



Just don't make TO smaller because thenn you'll have the bug again...

I removed spoiler because people ignoed this advise xD

i use keyboard controls , and like many others said , it's about the keys locking like the UP arrow and the turret turning by it's own

shaft is my turrent of choice if the problem with scope stuck in left corner of screen and no laser or aiming capabilities there is no use in playing anymore even though I have ALOT of playing time invested I will just quit and play world of tanks. When a problem arises like this especially when it is a direct result from the designers it should be corrected before it is put to use it just shows how little they care about the players which in turn are the ones who pay their salary. I have played for a long time and have seen many changes most were for the better however the problem with shaft turrent (no laser sighting,sniper scope in left corner of screen and no aiming capabilities at all ) is just sad and lazy on their part because of the lack of importance and timely manner in which it is taking to correct the issue.

Is there anybody to provide us with an update ?

What is happening ?  Is there any estimation about when it is expected to be resolved ?

 

Shaft is useless ..  does not work neither with the classic keyboard controls , nor with the mouse ..

The "workarounds" suggested  do fix the top left corner issue ..  temporarily ..

 

But still .. the shaft is acting on it's own , sometimes aiming the floor , or the sky .. or rotating like a radar 360 degrees

this is so disappointing .. 

along with the "Silence" from the company side ...

Time is passing by and it feels like nobody cares about it

Shaft doesn't work. It spins uncontrollably at random times. It totally sucks. How come there aren't any bugs when it comes to taking money out of my account to pay for the shaft upgrades. It's a complete crock and nobody seems to be doing anything. They stopped testing software before using it? Are these the same guys who made the Obama healthcare software? I was wondering what they were up to nowadays.

I have the exact same problems with my shaft turret on a Viking tank.  It rotates randomly.  The sight is off low and right, and sometimes it will not let me even aim it.  Glad I am not the only one, but hope it gets fixed soon.  Hard to compete this way.

Still having major problems with shaft / hunter combination.

In a Rio 30min battle, i only have 10 - 15 min real game fun.

All the other time, my turret keeps spinning or aiming up or down.

I tried I.E and also google Chrome.............both in full screen mode => prob's like i wrote above

I' tried with firefox in full screen => no !!! still problems like i wrote above.
 

 

HELLO TANKI => CAN YOU FIND A SOLLUTION OR DON'T YOU CARE

FOR THE MINOR NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO ONLY WANT TO PLAY WITH A SHAFT?

 

And no i don't like the mouse aiming.

 

It's now already 5-6 days i can't play normal.
I become a little bit irritated............ :angry:

Not for me. It works fine. It spins on its own only when I have the screen minimized.

[TheRealElFredo 0]

I've had the other problems coming back every now and then, even with the viewport maximized. Random "crazy ivan" turret spins, hardly usable sniper mode, etc.

Hello everyone! Sorry about not responding to any of your comments, I have been quite busy of late.....

 

Anyway! The temporary solution to the Turret Turning problem was to press the same key that the Turret is turning in. Example: Turret is continually turning right, tap the "->" key. This also goes for the Turret going up or down in Scope mode. (\/ or /\ keys)

 

Hope that helps everyone! ^_^
