I read the readme and all the documentation I could find on the keymapper, and that worked great.
(I'm using version 0.74 and running Star Wars: Dark Forces. Took a while, but the game itself is installed and working great, including sound.)
Since I'm using the DBGL Java frontend it executes and closes the DOSBox emulator every time I run Dark Forces, which means running SETUP.EXE, where the in-game rebinds are, doesn't save any changes from session to session.
I used the DOSBox keymapper to rebind all of the keyboard commands (to be more similar to a modern FPS... WASD movement, etc). So those are fine, I saved my remapped file to a different location and have that set to load on startup of Dark Forces.
However, I can't figure out how to rebind the mouse triggers of DOSBox. In the game, right click moves forward, and the Y-Axis also moves the player forward and back. I want to get rid of/change these events/binds so that every time I move my mouse up or down it doesn't move the player.
However, X-Axis looks side to side, and I want to keep that functionality.
Does DOSBox have any way to change the Mouse events like it does Keyboard events? How do people usually solve this problem?
Thanks for any help.
