Mouse problem

Post by RichMunn »

I decided to revisit FG2 and bought the Onslaught DLC.

I then used the Steam keys to install both FG2 Invasion and Onslaught on Steam.

The right mouse button simply does nothing, so no units can move. Otherwise, and in all other games, the mouse is working perfectly. I can select with the left button. Might this be to do with the very recent patch? I never had this problem before and it's an odd one in this day and age.

Thanks for any help you can offer,

Rich

Same problem. Movement path highlighted. Unable to move as right mouse is dead. I can get to all unit information. Just can’t move.

Not sure this is right. I did reboot but it did not help.

is it a laptop with no mouse attached or not installed or no drivers etc?

<RI> Initialized touch support.

implies yes, but a DxDiag report would be better as that will say with certainty what drivers are and what aren't installed

Hi Jimi

I have solved it by resetting the input to the default settings. I don't know how it was not on default, I hadn't touched anything, but I did that and right mouse now works.

Cheers and good luck!

The latest version of Windows 10 is the October 2020 Update. This is Windows 10 version 2009, and it was released on October 20, 2020. This update was codenamed “20H2” during its development process, as it was released in the second half of 2020. Its final build number is 19042.

so your running a older version of windows 10, plus haven't downloaded and installed the optional extra drivers either
