Supermodel Forum

I have searched up and down the internet for a solution to this, but have had no luck. Simply put, my mouse does not register at all when playing The Lost World.

Every video or website tutorial i have read just goes through a basic installation, turns the game on and it runs with no prior configuration changes.

It is the only mouse plugged into my computer, and there are no joysticks, gamepads, or anything else that would possibly interfere. I have tried directinput, xinput, and raw input with no luck.

Are you using a front end?
99% of problems like this come from people using old or simply bad front ends which make a mess of the Supermodel.ini file.
There is no official GUI, only fan made ones.
(Trust me. I'm guilty of making bad GUIs myself )

Make sure your Supermodel.ini has,

Code: Select all

; Light guns (Lost World)
InputGunLeft = "KEY_LEFT"               ; digital, move gun left
InputGunRight = "KEY_RIGHT"             ; digital, move gun right
InputGunUp = "KEY_UP"                   ; digital, move gun up
InputGunDown = "KEY_DOWN"               ; digital, move gun down
InputGunX = "MOUSE_XAXIS,JOY1_XAXIS"    ; analog, full X axis
InputGunY = "MOUSE_YAXIS,JOY1_YAXIS"    ; analog, full Y axis
InputTrigger = "KEY_A,JOY1_BUTTON1,MOUSE_LEFT_BUTTON"
InputOffscreen = "KEY_S,JOY1_BUTTON2,MOUSE_RIGHT_BUTTON"    ; point off-screen
InputAutoTrigger = 0                    ; automatic reload when off-screen
InputGunLeft2 = "NONE"
InputGunRight2 = "NONE"
InputGunUp2 = "NONE"
InputGunDown2 = "NONE"
InputGunX2 = "JOY2_XAXIS"
InputGunY2 = "JOY2_YAXIS"
InputTrigger2 = "JOY2_BUTTON1"
InputOffscreen2 = "JOY2_BUTTON2"
InputAutoTrigger2 = 0

If it already has that, try downloading a fresh official build,

keep it separate from your current install, copy the game zip to the new ROMs folder, and try launching the game with a batch file or command line using,

Code: Select all

Supermodel "Roms\lostwsga.zip"

If that works either your old version of Supermodel or front end is bad.
