First post, by Flaser_of_the_HLP
Hello eveyone!
This is my first post so I'll waste a couple of words on myself:
I'm an old gamer (in terms on gaming), and used to play several titles, but as of late I purches less and less.
As for the HLP (Hard Light Pruductions) - I've been an active member of that community from 2002. The HLP deals mainly with Descent/Conflict Freespace and Freespace 2. Modding and a sourcecode project are present (major developments).
I live in Hungary, middle of Middle-Europe, currently studing engeneering at the Budapet Uni of Technologies.
My problem is the following:
Earlier I tried Mission Critical under Windown 2000 Server with VDMS, but I failed to solve the stuck mouse - it moves only in the upper third part of the screen.
I tried changing my mouse (USB) to standard one, even with base MS drives - nothing seemed to work.
I've recently redownloaded Mission Critical form HOTU (for the second time) and tried to run it usgin mouse2kv and nolfb under Windows 2000 Pro (no SP).
It doens't seem to be a vesa problem, since the game ran fine.
MOUSE2KV seemed like a solution - however it garbled the sound and failed to solve the problem, no matter what resolution I set.
There is a cofiguration file (Legend.ini) with a mouse set, however I don't know what the other setting could be for it other then 'MOUSE'.
The HOTU rip misses the setup file, only setsound is included.
My cofiguration:
P4 1.6
(Asus - I use nvidia drivers) Geforce 2 Deluxe
512 RDRam
Win2k Pro no SP (could this be the problem?)
The game is on an NTFS partition.
Other than the stuck mouse seems to run fine.
