Why cant i Shift/Tab after patch?

Anyone else that has this on Steam having this problem?

Since it patched the game to 2.0, i can no longer Shift/Tab to the Steam Community page while in-game. Bit of a pain in the arse tbh, as i now have to Alt/Tab out of the game to desktop to message or whatever.

It's a small detail i know, but thought it worth a mention.

Any idea's?

So im not the only one,yeah i have the same problem, looks like it got bugged right after the patch.Hope they fix it soon.

My Tab and Enter buttons not working in game anymore. I don't know why, hope CD Projekt will fix it soon.

Yeah, doesn't work for me either. I first thought it was just a problem since I had to restart the launcher to get the game to start but it hasn't worked at any point.

Yup. you can't rebind the tab key either. I used to use it to sheathe my weapon, just like in the first game, but it isn't possible right now.

EDIT: Was able to change it in the .ini

Bah, this really grind my gears... Can't take any screenshots without the steam ui, and not a single one of the screenshot programs (gadwin etc etc) i've tested works either.

well they now used the TAB for the tutorial level, so i guess just try to reassign it and release it of it's duty xD

So can you now Shift/Tab to the Steam Community page? Coz i tried changing it in the .ini file and it still doesnt work. What exactly did you change if you dont mind me asking?

You cant reassign it, thats the problem

I used TAB for my medallion. Now I cannot assign it. Come ON! Let me use w2hatever key suits my play style better. I don't need some fixed key for tutorial. I haven't played 2.0 yet, just installed and the input settings showed so I know I cannot assign TAB now although I don't know what's its new function except from posts above. But it is still wrong. I'm leaving town for the beach then work on Monday so only next Friday I'll have access to my PC again. Please CDPR, make TAB remappable and whatever its new function too by then! =))

Having same problem with Steam Overlay/ Steam Community In Game is not working.

A lot of other Steam users also:

No Steam Overlay

I haven`t been able to try the game since 2.0 but used to be if you press the pause/break key you could then alt/tab to the desktop .

Has anyone tried MSI afterburner or EVGA Precision for screenshots . Works for me .

 

[BruceyPoo]

I have my steam overlay set to Shift+F1, and that doesn't work either. Can't even take screenshots like I used to.

Never really used the Steam Community In Game to take screen shots, but I can certainly appreciate how useful it is.

It's not just the fact that using it for screenshots is broke, the entire Steam Community In Game Overlay is now non-functional. No screenshots, no achievement pop-ups, no friends, no chat, etc...

I always used FRAPS for screenshots, and it works just fine for me.

As thread topic is:
"Why cant i Shift/Tab after patch?"

I think the real issue here is why the Steam Overlay is totally broke, not just screenshots.
FRAPS works real well for screenshots, if it helps:
