Alt-S is intermittent for me on my Win7 laptop, but it is very occasional in as much as works for ages, then suddenly stops working. Then continues to not work until I "do something" which I haven't sussed where-upon it works again. Similarly with right-Alt.

I still suspect you have something on your machine interfering with things, but if it's any consolation I think that's what's happening on my machine too and I'm damned if I can find a culprit.
TTFN,

[Edit] Mods - maybe it would be worthwhile to wave your magic wand and move these few posts to the PsychoGoatee's original problem post ? It only occured to me after posting, D'Oh!

Thanks for looking into it anyway, it's cool that Duke3D has a community where there's even somebody to talk to about a random thing like this.
I did try rebinding it to other keys, using left or right alt etc, it seems to be the that command itself that has a problem in the mapster code for me, not the keys in particular. I don't think it is something on my computer, but since you get something similar at times on Win7, it makes sense that there's something clashing there somehow. But it is way out of my depth.

Could it be the language swtiching from one to another in windows? I know Alt GR doesn't work when my keyboard is set to spanish.
I've never changed language settings, always English for me.
