What kind of Mouse do you have?

You need to have an external mouse with scroll wheel preferably. A touchpad on a Laptop for example wont work.

answer to a. <----is understandable!!!!

answer to b. <----if it is not worth it, why would you think it  would be worth it for anyone  to answer your question / or request for help?


after you get up and flying and find out how much fun it truely is, hope you reconsider this statement!!!  btw it is only .50  cents a day to play online

Glaude, we need a little more info if we are supposed to help you at all. With a "it doesnt work" its really hard to start trouble shooting!

Is your mouse PS2 or USB? What kind of Computer do you have (system specs, OS)? Does the mouse work fine otherwise?



One thing you could try as a shot into the blue is:
Go find the game install on your HDD. It contains a folder called "Settings". Delete any file with a .jsm extension in that folder. Then relaunch the game and see if it works.

hp pavilion mx 70 3.5 megs ram 80 gig memory, nvidia geforce 5500 videocar, pci, ps2 optical mouse with mouse wheel, it does work everywhere else

havent checked drivers, might have to install latest drivers, but still it could be other things

Im not exactly sure what you mean with 3.5 megs RAM....

Also, it would be nice to rule out what YOU can think of first, before asking us to  think of things.....

But I guess since you can launch the game without crashing, you have at least the minimum system requirements. But note that with that Nvidia Graphic chip, you are on the lower end performance wise.


Id try deleting the jsm files first. They sometimes get corrupted, especially when using AntiVirus. Make sure that it allows AH.



You say you cannot select mouse in the Map Controller screen. What options *do* you get?

Just for clarification... you do not happen to have a JS/Gamepad plugged in?
