Using mouse with dosbox in windows? #71

Closed NelsonRosenberg closed 7 years ago

NelsonRosenberg commented 7 years ago

Sorry if this seems like a dumb questions, but I have tried everything I could think of to get my mouse working as a mouse when playing old point and click games in dosbox core. It just does nothing, even if I toggle mouse capture or put Retroarch in fullscreen. Mouse is enabled in config, works in the retroarch menu but when I open a game in dosbox, it stops working. Some games even say only a controller is connected. What am I missing? Is mouse not supported?

Thank you.

I realized that some games do work with mouse, but other that have support for both, don't, like Call of Cthulhu or Hook. Not sure how to enforce these games to use mouse over keyboard or joystick.
