    Protect the truck mission, guns will not fire

    I am on the protect the truck mission right after rescueing Liza and escaping the temple. Whenever I press my "fire" button for my gun all it does it aim, not fire. I switch guns and all of my guns do that now, except 5 minutes prior I had to shoot pipes in the temple and they worked then,

    Any suggestions?

    The fire button is hard coded to the left mouse button. There will be a few times when you'll have to use the mouse to fire a weapon.

    Roger. That was my first thought so I tried that button as well and it aims just like the right button (I set the right mouse button as my fire button). I also tried every button that has anythign to do with combat: grenade throw, melee, etc. No dice.

    I just deleted the game and am reinstalling it now to see if that has any effect.

    Did you recently install any mouse/keyboard drivers? I had an issue where right after installing my tron mouse drivers and the mouse wheel stopped working, only in game though. Restart to make sure that wasn't the issue, no dice. Just had to dump and re-install the mouse drivers, restart and everything was fine.

    I have the same problem with every scripted cinematic event. I go into controls each time and simply restore the defaults. Then I use the mouse to shoot the fixed guns. After the cinematic I revert back to my keys of choice. There has to be a solution to this repetitive and annoying problem.
