    I played TToEE way back when it first came out and I dont remember if I had this problem or not.

    Basically my mouse cursor feels like it is hung over. Its nowhere near as responsive as my desktop mouse cursor.

    Is there a fix for this or a setting I can adjust somewhere?

    TIA

    Hey Olaf, try going into the options screen in the game and turning off anti-aliasing. That should do the trick

    That did help but the mouse cursor still is not very sensitive relative to my desktop setting, which is maxed.

    Is there a parameter I can edit in a cfg file somewhere?

    I can help

    There is a solution out there that should make your mouse responsiveness about 75% better:

    1. Go to http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm?c...;contentid=6003

    2. Download Logitech Mouseware version 9.79

    3. Install the drivers (if you're using a Microsoft mouse, the Logitech drivers will still work for it.)

    4. Deselect "Disable acceleration in games" in the Motion tab of Mouse Properties on your taskbar.

    This new driver worked wonders for me with ToEE, and didn't change anything outside of the game. You'll notice that the mouse still feels slightly "tangential," but its way better than without.

    Hmmm, maybe I'll post this in the "Common Issues" thread.
