[Bug 12472] New: Limited camera movement using mouse in Grand Theft Auto 3 from wine 0.9. 28+

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12472

Summary: Limited camera movement using mouse in Grand Theft Auto
                    3 from wine 0.9.28+
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.56.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: P2
         Component: directx-dinput
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

The mouse centering patches added in wine-0.9.28
(http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1410) fixed the bug that the mouse was
always centered on the menu screens but in doing so limited how far the mouse
could move the camera left and right during the game.

Using a gamepad for camera movement works fine though but it's still a bug that
can be fixed.

Wine version 0.9.56 has been selected as 0.9.59 isn't yet an option though the
game runs in 0.9.59 and I can't get the game to run in 0.9.58.

Confirmed.

You can get more range by increasing mouse speed, but that's just a bandaid and
doesn't solve anything.

Support for the mouse hack registry entries
(HKCU/Software/Wine/DirectInput/{MouseHack,NoMouseCenter}) seem to have been
removed from wine 0.9.59, even though they were perfect for things like this.

I hate how hard it is to find out which methods work with which versions...
when were they removed? why? and what do we do now?
