just found this forum on my search how to fix the stagnating mouse and the graphical errors in MoO2. It's my favourite game so I hope you have some advice for me.
First to know, I'm using the GameStar-Version of MoO2 where a german 1.31 patch is included.
The probs I have:
- Stagnating mouse: it just stops to move at tax-setting;
- Graphical Errors: just after a time (could be after 5minutes gaming or after 1hour) when I click on a planets assembly list the backscreen becomes red, the writ orange and back on the space screen all's black with a few white writings - after this the game shuts down;
When I bought me a new computer this year -of course I wanted to play MoO2 on this too- I surprisingly found out that the problems aggravate :
- the stagnation of the mouse also appears at name-creations screens (whether it was the name for your leader or the name of a planet) and
- the rate of graphical errors increased while its variable time of occurence had been diminished.
I've read of the patch v1.4 but one of my friends - kind of computerfreak - disadvised against its install due to the necessity of Dos (he knows the DosBox a bit but not good enough to be able to configure it). So I wasn't able to try whether it works .
Is there any solution?
Thanks for all replies beforehand.
(P.S. sorry if my english is not so good)
