Party Member Selection & GUI Button to Select All Party Members - Broken? [Now Fixed 10/12/2013]

These broke for me when the new version of the Beta went in this evening (October 11, 2013) -- not so much the keys themselves but the functions that should be tied to them appears to be broken/non functional both in previous beta version saved games and in newly created games.

    The GUI selection works fine for me, but the buttons don't.

    Edit: By buttons I mean the party selection quick keys.

    You mean the little GUI button in the lower right of the screen works for you?

    For some reason it does not work for me but I had reassigned the key that also maps to that 'function' to a custom key.

    Maybe having customized those values is what broke it. It struck me as odd that the GUI button that can be clicked isn't working for me.

    I will delete the beta from my system and then reinstall it to see if the defaults work and then see if customizing them breaks the function call...tomorrow (bedtime now).

    @Eiler Yep, the "Select All" button on the GUI works fine for me. I didn't re-assign any keys though so maybe that's why.

    Same here. GUI button works, but keys from 1 to 0 seem to be unassigned, even though the assign keys menu says otherwise.

    Go to the Top Ten Issues thread and like my post about this. The more people we have liking it, the sooner it'll get fixed.

    And to me, keyboard party selection is integral to playing Baldur's Gate.

    I also think that keyboard party selection is like a key feature... I can't play without it!
    (It's not just the keyboard... I tried voice commands and my nostromo gamepad... doesn't work!)

    I'm on a qwerty keyboard... So, all kind of keyboards are related!
    Please fix this ASAP!

    (And, just for the heck of it (and take it with a grain of salt) I'm outraged! http://imaginebeloit.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/i-am-outraged.gif just like that! :) However, I know they'll take care of it (but what do I do for the weekend I say!).

    I'm having the same problem with the character selection hotkeys. I even tried to reassign them to different keys but the problem persists. I am using the latest beta btw.

    I have an update on character selection hotkeys (that, to my knowledge, should touch everyone using them!)

    The problem is NOT the keys themselves but with the "Quick Slot" but only concerning characters selection... Weapon slots, item slots and spell slots work fine (tested them one after the other). The keyboard zoom is also out of service...

    @vortaka @Dee yep, in the Quick Slots list of actions, all those at the bottom of the list are not working in the latest update. I.e. the last one of the list working is "Formation Slot 5" and then "Character 1" and all subsequent ones are not working. I tried assigning a letter to them by the by. So the problem is indeed not with numeric keys but with the action slots themselves.

    @ljbo: That's what happens when you "comment" a section and you forget to un"comment" it afterwards!!! :) (Programming heaven (or hell)).

    Joke aside, my weekend plans to play BGEE just got scrambled (just like eggs... The only difference? I like scrambled eggs... Scrambled weekends... not that much!).
