My mouse doesn't work ingame

Post by HangMan_ »

Title pretty much explains the problem. My mouse does not work ingame. I can see the cursor in the centre of the screen, but cannot move it. The mouse works fine in the pr menu, and in every other game on my computer. The issue is solely occurring when i play PR. I recently used the bf2 debugger for the first time on this computer, and am wondering if that could be a factor. The mouse worked ingame fine, up until i used the debugger.

All help appreciated,

Hmmm I'm not sure what the BF2 debugger is, but does the system exhibit the same behaviour in VBF2? I'm assuming it will. Check that your mouse sensitivity isn't set to 0 for some reason in the control ini or the ingame settings? I was looking through the settings and hit 'reset' on controls just then... rage -_-*

I found this from google:
Had this problem myself a few times with BF2, what happens is that somehow the game loses all of your keyboard and mouse settings in the options menu. If you were to go to the control setup, you would see that all settings are blank. This is why the mouse and keyboard work in the menu, but don't respond when joining a game.

Simply reset all of your controls to the default layout (hit the button at bottom that says something along those lines), and then update your personal changes.

Use 2 accounts, 1 for 1.5, 1 for 1.3 (debugger). Controls got messed up with the 1.5 patch and the falcon controller. Make the new account for the debugger in the debugger.
