I want to play "Scenario" with DOS-Box 0.70. On every start comes the message: ""Bitte stellen Sie Ihre Maus auf 2 Tasten ein, booten Ihren PC erneut und starten dann Scenario."
(In English: "Please configure your mouse to 2 Buttons, reboot your Pc and run scenario.")

In Dosbox 0.65 comes another message (in english:"You need a microsoft mouse driver"

The games is available on HOTU.
Is there a way to patch Dosbox or the game ?

It's as simple as what they tell: they're too stupid to ignore the 3rd
mouse button and instead exit the game.

No, but besides that the game doesn't work without a mouse anyways.
Can you hex-edit files?

offset 0xbb8e: 0x83 0x3e 0x62 0x91 0x02 ->0x83 0x3e 0x62 0x91 0x03
that is change 0xbb92 from 0x02 to 0x03

Is it playable? By times the mouse did behave erratic, but might have been my build as well...

yes, its playable. On the beginning of the game, you must type your name.
