Hi
I am having trouble with the controls playing the manhunt rip. All keys work ok and the mouse firing works ok but the mouse camera does nothing. This makes it hard to play as you can only straff and move forward and back with the keys. There doesn't seem to be a way to fix this in game and the only settings i could find in the game directory -\Manhunt\initscripts\FRONTEND didn't seem to help.
Has anyone had similar problems and been able to solve it?
Thanks for any help.

OK - GOT IT FIXED.
Apparently this is a common problem even though there is no info about it in the game files or the maker's web site.
If you have a joystick connected - mouse camera will not work - just unplug the joystick and hey presto - all controls work properly.( found this googling through fan faqs)

The only joystick I have doesn't need no pc ^^ (ignore this line)

Be careful, if you use it too much the knob might break off. :omg: :lol:

Yes - and I'm careful not to use it in games like Q3 Arena where you have to move it around very quickly.
