Issues fixed
GPU Overheating
- Running the game with uncapped frame rate and V-Sync disabled may lead to GPU overheating. Enable V-Sync or cap the frame rate to prevent this from happening.
Mouse Lag/General Mouse Problems
This issue occurs primarily when in spectator mode, and can sometimes be fixed by Alt+Tab'ing in and out. Alternatively, logging out and logging back in will solve this issue.
Unable to Use Abilities or Hotkeys
Upon loading game, abilities, summoner spells, and items will not activate when the corresponding key is pressed. It is as though the button press is not registering. Self-casting will work for some abilities, as well as using modifiers such as ctrl + key. This problem is fixed by exiting the game and client (as well as closing the process if necessary) and restarting the game.
