Ah, I have no middle mouse button

from GalCiv2 Forums
How in gods name do I alternate the camera if I have no middle mouse button, and clicking the scroller button does nothing, niehter does holding it etc. This is really silly, I mean, given the sheer amount of people without middle mouse buttons, and the fact that you cant change the keys. Yeah.

I use a laptop, so I don't have one either. Just click and hold both the left and the right at the same time.

Prohass: Is your mouse driver configured to interpret a click on the wheel as a "third mouse button"-click? It's the default for Microsoft mice, but I have seen Logitech devices where the the middle button does something else entirely, or people who have changed the default behaviour.

See control panel->Mouse

The buttons '1', '2', '3', '4' are four default camera views that you can use if you can't get an alternate form for "middle mouse". Most mouse drivers allow you to reassign buttons, so I don't think you have that many problems. Then again, that might just be because I have one of those 7 button logitech optical mouse with scroll wheel and click button, so... I really need the option to change what they do.

If you are going to mass market a game please keep in mind that we are all not as computer oriented as you designer types.



Loving it, but can't even figure out how to get the cool images from the library into the right folders.

Also, the 1.1 version will allow you to Rotate the camera with CTRL+Arrow Keys, and Pan the camera with Shift+Arrow Keys.

Hopefully this will help
