Mouse constantly moves to the top in menus in Battle Engine Aquila (DX9). Ingame seems to be fine.

Obviously this is with stock dgvoodoo.conf (no emulated modes).

I figured out why. The game has a (usually invisible) menubar and this somehow causes problems with dgVoodoo, but not natively. It's fixable by using some method to hide the menubar, I use a AHK script:

1Run,BEA.exe
2WinWait,ahk_exe BEA.exe
3DllCall("SetMenu", uint, WinExist( "ahk_exe BEA.exe" ), uint, 0)
