Borderlands (Steam Version) On a Mac Mouse Problems

Post by iNom »

I can get into everything and the menu, character selection screen, and all of that works just fine; but when the cursor is no longer visible and I start the actual game, my sensitivity is so ridiculously high, it's either facing the sky or at the ground, no matter how slightly I move the mouse. I tried changing the in-game sensitivity, and I have no idea how to fix this.
Any suggestions?

It's not really a sensitivity. It's a broken mouse input.

Mac's port of Xorg has broken XInput2 extension that Wine needs for proper mouse functionality. Without it you are back to http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6971 . You can try setting MouseWarpOverride to "force" ( http://wiki.winehq.org/UsefulRegistryKeys ). It might help or might break mouse completely, including menu.

Does Nothing

... and if it does absolutely nothing, it means that I installed it wrong, since it didn't fix, or worsen the problem?

If it had no effect first make sure you did it right:

Code: Select all

wine reg add 'HKCU\Software\Wine\DirectInput' /v MouseWarpOverride /d force
If that didn't fix it, then try compiling Wine without xi2 support. And if that didn't work - open a bug and reference this comment: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30123#c11 stating that "yeah, it's broken in latest Wine".

./configure --without-xinput2
If you won't have any luck with compiling Wine - just file a bug.
