  • $\begingroup$ loop select has been around forever, so it's not a bug, it's probably your mouse (or alt key on keyboard), have you tried swapping mice/keyboards. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Uploading one (or more)screenshots, and uploading you blend file to Blend exchange (or a similar site) woul be of great use to those who might want to help you. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ Loop select follows quads. A failure is often a useful clue to hidden edges.. doubles, other ways in which the geometry is not the way it looks $\endgroup$

Can't select Edge loop (Alt + RMB is failing )

Try to turn off "Emulate 3 Button Mouse"

You can find it at:

-> File

-> User Preferences(Ctrl + Alt + U)

-> Input

-> Mouse: Emulate 3 Button Mouse(OFF)

-> Press "Save user Settings"

enter image description here
