Broken: 2.70 19e627c
Worked: N/A

Blender Game Engine
OK so if I created a Text Object and then convert it to mesh object the MouseOver and MouseOver any Events do not work.

I have checked this and confirmed it and simplified it and tested it may ways.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Based on a (as simple as possible) attached .blend file with minimum amount of steps
OK, open the attached blend file and press p to play. After which move the mouse over the text (Text was convert to a mesh) nothing happens, move it over the box and the event is triggered. I also add a plane for completeness as the text is converted to a mess. The mess works the text converted to a mess does not.MouseOverBug.blend

This is due to the converted mesh has the "Physics Type:" in the Physics panel set to "No collision".
I'm trying to fix it.
Meanwhile you can fix it setting manually the object to "Static".

I attach a fix to set the game engine defaults to the mesh resulting from Curve/Meta/Surf/Text conversion.
