Hi,

I installed project IGI with the CD , everything seems to work but there are a small mouse bug : i can't turn more than 180°

I think this bug can be resolve if I "fix" the mouse somewhere on the screen
but don't work in winecfg.

OS:Ubuntu 7.10
Wine Version:0.9.55
card driver:nvidia-glx-new with the repository

Could you try the native dinput.dll?

There is not "simple fix". It's a known problem - bug 6971 in Bugzilla

@Rico => i will try even if it's a known bug.

the native dll didn't resolve the problem :

Windows version:

Windows Vista:the mouse doesn't work in the main menu and in the game the keyboard and the mouse don't work.

Windows XP:like Windows Vista

Windows 2003:like Windows Vista and windows XP

Windows 2000:same problem : I can't turn more 180°

Windows ME:like Windows 2000

Windows 98:like Windows ME and Windows 2000

Windows 95:like Windows 98 , ME and 2000

Windows NT 4.0:message box : "This application requires DirectX version 7.0 or greater to run"

Windows NT 3.5:like Windows NT 4.0

Windows 3.1:the mouse problem is in the game AND the main menu

Windows 3.0:like Windows 3.1

Windows 2.0 : like windows 3.0 and Windows 3.1

No need to try setting the windows version below 95

Next step might be to try rebuilding wine with the hack from the bug report,
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6971#c43

BTW does the bug happen with the free demo,

?

If you are talking about "escaping mouse" bug... try searching for... or

don't search ;] just try this:

http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=7774

It works for me - now Project IGI would get a Platinium... if performance
were good

If you are using Debian Etch - you will find newest wine with this patch
apllied on:

http://wine.x.pl/

(patched package)

Enjoy.
