Title: Mouse problem
Post by: Ulundel on December 13, 2002, 12:38:41 pm

right, I just reformated my C drive and now I got a very weird and of course a very annoying problem with FS2.

I turned the mouse on and everything but ingame, moving the mouse doesen't affect the ship. I can fire and do everything else but not to turn.

First I thaught it's because of the optical mouse but tried with the old one too. Still noting.

Any help?

i had (have) the same problem...

do you mean that the mouse works regualrly (in windows, and even in the FS main screen) but doesn't work when youre trying to fly?

i never figured it out... but i've never used my mouse in-game anyhow...

try the 'setup' when you first start FS2

The game defaults to j/s control - mouse needs to be activated on the ingame options.

Ok ToT - sounds like something was corrupted in the install, maybe (installed  DirectX, too?).
Ah well, you newer know... e.g. here, it seems my system catched a strange BSOD infection from somewhere - half a dozen crashes in the last 5 days.. ...sucks (and right now i feel too lazy to reinstall)... drives me N U Z!

Perhaps you should set the mouse sensitivity to Max. I dunno. :confused:
