Ok I get this very weird problem in ezquake. I don't get this in any other game. When I press shift and alt together I get huge fps drop and my mouse gets stuck for a split second. Enough to get you killed. I don't get this in FTEGLQW.exe, CPMA or Bioshock or Crysis or any other game. I use 1.8.3 but same thing happens in 1.8.2 and latest nightly build. So it seems its just ezquake.

Its really weird because I put bare essentials into new quake dir without any config files and still when you press shift+alt this happens. It also doesn't matter what shift and alt are bound to the fps drops, always

Does anyone know how to fix this? It would be very much appreciated.

Specs:

E8400
8800GTS 512mb
169.21
Windows XP Home

Well... It's the Windows short cut to change the keyboard layout. Maybe that has some influence.

Hey you're right I just turned it off in regional and language options and no more fps drops. Thanks heaps!

Now I can use my leet alias

alias +weak "bind mouse1 +ssg; bind mouse3 +ng"
alias -weak "bind mouse1 +rl; bind mouse3 +lg"

bind SHIFT "+weak"


ALT is +back btw
