Hi. I was wondering if someone could help me out.
I started having a problem in robot arena, when I reach the main menu the mouse only works horizontally. It's weird, I can move my mouse around until it reaches the main menu and then it only moves in a horizontal direction. My computer only does this only when in robot arena.
Has any one else had this problem or have an idea what is wrong??
:)

More details please.
Where did you get RA2?
Have you modded it?

Hi squirrel_monkey
I got it from Sages signature, I havent modded it.
It was working fine, but just started doing it a couple of days ago.
Edit-- squirrel_monkey, no i havent tried reinstalling yet. But thanks i will try that. I havent changed anything recently.
Edit-- Hi Sonny_Resetti, I do have another mouse, I will try that too, but it's weird, it works everywhere else.

Try reinstalling (back up your bots first)
Have you changed you computer in any way recently?
-
It could be a hardware problem. Do you have another mouse that you can test it out with?
-
Are you using XP?
-
Oh, i forgot to say that all of my AI packs are doing it, not just stock. Like DSL2.1, Starcore3, BBeans, etc.
@Xenos: Yes, i am using XP
@Sonny_Resetti: i tried using another mouse, it did the same thing.
@Squirrel_Monkey: i can't really reinstall them because they're zips, should i just delete them and download them again? And no, i haven't changed anything on my computer that i can think of.

Then it's a Windows update that messed up your game. If you use system restore to go to a point before the update was installed your game should work.

Microsft's updates never are good for anything but causing more problems.

But my system restore is off...(https://gametechmods.com/forums/Smileys/gtm/rage.gif) and my updates are set to not automatically download or install.

Redownload a new copy (don't delete the old one), EXTRACT the files. Then move your bots across.

Ah, I know this problem. The only way to get rid of it is to change the graphics card (trust me; I tried extracting it in vain, completely un-installing it in the process, so it's not the game). What graphics card do you run?

I have NVIDIA GeForce 6200 LE. but i haven't changed anything, and why would it mess up out of nowhere? (https://gametechmods.com/forums/Smileys/gtm/question.gif)

Ohaider.
Yes, i am having the same problem.
It was fine two days ago so i have no idea whut has happened to my computer.
Plus i have no idea of the stats (all i know is that it is a Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 Laptop)
My school gave it to me and i have had it almost 2 years now and hasn't had any viruses that i can remember.

Restart your computer may actually help. RA2 is screwy like that.

Morph your computers together.
Not really, obviously, but that must be REALLY annoying.

bump.
I HAS A DISCOVERY.
When i play it the CPU usage goes through the roof (90-100%) so i just need to figure out how to lower that.
halp?
-
RA2 always hogs CPU. It does that on my computer too.
-
Well for some reason it doesn't do it on this computer...
Any ideas if/how i can lower it?
Or is it bust :P
-
Close any other programs you have running, and make sure nothing else is secretly running in the background (such as antivirus software).
-
Yeah, my laptop has a tendency to overheat if I play RA2 for too long >_>
