3.4 - Mouse Doesn't work :( - No Axis control - No ship movement
on: July 18, 2007, 04:42:31 pm
I installed 3.4 for the first time, and the extra missions.

The fire button work's fine but the only thing that moves the ship around is the number pad.

I searched the forum for an answer.. all i found was something about turning the mouse on .. but couldn't find it in options.
I found the `invert` button tho, which is impossible to select at the moment.

Does anyone know the cause? ..

I've been looking forward to this for a very, very long time.

have you selected/calibrated your joystick in the laucher before running TBP?

perhaps your joystick isn't compatible? are all your drivers for it up to date?
Fun while it lasted.

Then bitter.

To invert control axis you have to first select one of the control axis and then click on the invert.

Mouse control you have to turn on in the game.

if you are in the options screen the option for the mouse should be on the left hand side, right below the volume stuff...

You're not the first person to miss it. The fact that the fire buttons DO work tends to throw most people.
