[SOLVED] MM7/8: Mouselook isn't working after moving the game to another PC

Unread postby Xfing » 05 Jun 2017, 22:47

I think I didn't do a proper reinstall when I moved my MM7 and 8 to my new PC a while ago. Haven't tried to play them a lot, but recently trying to fix this. I managed to get the Hardware Acceleration option available by setting a compatibility mode, but for some reason I can't make Caps Lock toggle between the mouselook modes, even though the ini file for the game does account for it. Any suggestions? Is it necessary to properly reinstall the games and then apply the GrayFace patches?

No, it's not needed, just install the latest versions of my patches. Make sure these options are enabled in ini:
MouseLook=1
CapsLockToggleMouseLook=1
My patches: MM6 MM7 MM8. MMExtension. Tools. Also, I love Knytt Stories and Knytt Underground. I'm also known as sergroj.

Thanks for mentioning it! I had overlooked MouseLook=1 it seems. The devil is always in the details :D
