    Hi everyone,

    I’m having a couple of issues with my new Samsung laptop and MapleRoyals, and I’m hoping someone might know how to fix them.

    1. Shift, Alt, and Ctrl keys not repeating when held
    On my previous laptop, I could hold down keys like Shift, Alt, or Ctrl to continuously attack or jump.
    On this new laptop, I need to press the key repeatedly, because holding it down does nothing.
    This only happens with these specific modifier keys — all other keys can be held normally.

    Does anyone know what could be causing this or how to enable key repeat for these keys?

    2. Fullscreen / window mode problem (freezing & flickering)
    This second issue only happens in MapleRoyals (not on other servers or games).

    The game originally launches in windowed mode. When I switch to fullscreen, everything works fine until I try to tab out of the game:

    • Pressing Alt + Tab or Ctrl + Alt + Enter causes the game to freeze.

    • When I try to return to fullscreen, the MapleRoyals window starts flickering like crazy.

    • I then need to force close the game, and sometimes I even have to restart my PC.
    Has anyone experienced this before or knows how to fix it?
    All tips are welcome!

    Thanks in advance!

    The first one isn't an issue with royals, it's some combination of windows version + keyboard of the laptop that prevents those keys from having a key repeat. I forgot what I did as a workaround on my old laptop (which is now dead, rest in peace) but I do remember it was awkward and not an ideal solution. I think it might have been an accessibility setting that locked all key repeats at 300ms?

    I have no idea about this, I am not really a tech guy. I’ve some posts on Reddit and they said to change some numbers like what you replyd, so far nothing works.
    I can work with this fault though, the real tough thing is issue 1. I have to restart maple multiple times a day. If I make the mistake and click the windows key; windows pops up and royals starts flickering. It’s so fuxked up. And I can’t find anything on internet or chatgtp to get it fixed. I should have bought a acer or hp or something instead of Samsung.
