farcry mouse problem??

Phate321 · 01-13-2007, 11:49 PM

this has never happened to me in a game before. im running a an amd 64 x2, asus board, 7900gt card, 1 gig of ram. so my system is more than capable to run farcry. on the game menu the mouse works just like it should. but when i launch the game the mouse does not work at all. i cant look around one bit in the game. but every other controll works, just not the mouse. ive tried changing all the settings but nothing. the copy of the game i have is good to. so what else could be the problem? i am using a wireless microsoft mouse if that helps any.

Have you installed the specific drivers for that mouse? Or did you just plug it in and use it?

Phate321 · 01-14-2007, 12:18 AM

just plugged it in. but ive been using it for like 2 years and havnt had a problem with it at all

Phate321 · 01-14-2007, 01:39 AM

so i just installed the latest drivers for my mouse and it still has the same problem. any ideas?

I'm sure you wont like hearing it but... Tried another mouse? Is the game patched?

ya, its the most recent version. 1.4. i once had a different copy of it and it worked fine. then i downloaded it through direct to drive twice and both dl's have done the same thing. why would it be the mouse on just that game?

My line of thinking there is, not that the mouse won't like the game, but rather the game might not like the mouse. Obviously there is some issue there. It would be a logical thing to try. If the game does the same with another mouse then you have it narrowed down a "bit".

I'm going to run Farcry and see if I cannot find an option that might help.

So I was just in the game, wondering if you've tried or could try the following.

Mouse Smoothing - Off

Mouse Sensitivity - Lowest

Mouse Acceleration - Off

Invert Mouse - Off

i think the best thing to do would be like Blue said, to try another mouse, my laptop didnt like my mouse for a while, but after a while sorted its self out. also is the mouse usb or ps2?
