Chapter 19 - Avery's descent bug?

[soulfull]

I'm playing a thief's end a second time with mouse and keyboard.

As I walk up to the first 3 mummies (Nate says: Is that a mummy?).

When the mummies ignite, he freezes and then my keyboard controls don't work anymore.

No movement no jumping, nothing.

Nate dies each time during the explosion.

Weird issue.
Maybe verify the game and see if this fixes it.

[soulfull]

Yes. I verified the game (all files OK) and then used an earlier save, which brought me 2 or 3 chapters earlier.

When I reached the first 3 mummies again, the same thing happened, but right before the explosion I was suddenly able to move away from it!?

On YouTube I saw that when you use a playstation controller, you receive a prompt to walk away, but that doesn't happen with keyboard and mouse.

My PC is new: Windows 11 --- RTX4090 --- SSD 4TB --- Intel core i9 -13th gen --- Memory DDR5 - 64GB.

sorry i could be of no help.

play with a controller

[soulfull]

In the past i bought a playstation 3 to mainly watch movies.

i also tried a couple of games (played uncharted 1-2 and 3), but the controller is not my thing.

After finishing the game, I used a previous save to try out, a couple of times, the igniting of the first 3 mummies again.

As soon as the mummies ignite i started tapping both keys R-ctrl (roll - evade) + downward arrow, which safely moved Nate away from the explosion.

With keyboard the game should pause and prompt you to press S+Shift (or S+Space can't recall which) - no other keys work at this point. The prompt did not show for me the first time and I died, but worked on the second attempt.

Thanks for your responds.

I should have mentioned that I remapped the keys.

S is downward arrow.

L-shift is R-ctrl.

Didn't see any prompt. Maybe the remapping caused it.
