Summary: Rise of Nations: Both mouse keys required for single left-click Product: Wine Version: 1.0.0 Platform: PC URL: http://www.microsoft.com/games/thronesandpatriots/downlo ads.aspx OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P4 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: kennybobs@o2.co.uk
I don't know when this first started, but this is apparent in Wine 1.0.0 through 1.1.16.
The cursor in Rise of Nations and it's expansion Thrones and Patriots ignores right-clicks and left-clicks. Clicking BOTH left and right mouse button acts as a left click.
There is a workaround. Editing the rise2.ini file, setting "ForceGDICursor=1" allows the cursor/mouse to behave normally. It also corrects a transparency problem with the cursor.
I don't know what traces might be relevant here...
