SShock 1 mouse too slow

Gin-Ryu on 6/9/2007 at 16:33

Thanks to your amazing FAQs I got SShock 1 working again but, there's always a but, on 640x480 resolution the mouse is way too slow. I think the problem is because the game starts at a lower resolution and then when I up it, for some reason it just doesn't change the mouse speed as well.
My .bat configuration is the same as the FAQ's.

Try saving the game, quitting, and reloading. That way it should apply the higher resolution as soon as you load the save game again, rather than having to switch in the middle of the game. This works for me with DosBox.

Doesn't work.
I'm using mok's XP patch to play it I just click on it and it runs with no problem. Well aside that mouse sensitivity.

You need to start (http://www.strangebedfellows.de/index.php/topic,113.0.html) mouse2kv.exe with the resolution you use as a parameter, like so: MOUSE2KV.exe 640 480 8 8 cdshock.exe

On the SShock .bat configuration file right? Already did and still way too slow.

sshock.bat starts the game in floppy version mode. You want cdshock.bat. Or maybe you want (http://www.strangebedfellows.de/index.php/topic,211.0.html) System Shock Portable.

Hmm did it already still nothing.
Got it working with Portable though although I would prefer fixing it on my previous instalation. Oh well at least it runs.
Thanks you all for all the help.

If you compare the two installs I'm sure you can get your own installation working. I'm not sure what for, but you could. ;)

Well Pocket SShock crashes me to the desktop way to many times. So I tried and fixed the mouse problem on the first instalation now the problem is that the VDM perfomance is not quite right. The game frame-rate seems to be really slow compared to what it was before.
