Invert vertical mouse movement

[Hayreddin_Barbarossa]

Ahoy mates!

Been months since we upgraded our 'puter but I've just had the chance to fire up PotC. I admit that it's truly disappointing after SD. The camera and controls suck. I'm yet to manage a single successful block in fencing.

Anyway, I hope I familiarize over time since it seems AOP will look more like PotC than SD.

Now, is it possible via coding to <b>invert vertical mouse rotation</b>, which was as simple as ticking a box in the controls menu in good old SD?

In the Build 12 mod (which improves the game unbelieveably much), which you can get from the main PiratesAhoy! downloads section, one of the new mods enables you to invert the vertical mouse movement. The option will be in the options menu. Hope this helps! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/me.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="me.gif" />
(I can assure you: The Build 12 mod is certainly worth getting! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/icon_mrgreen1.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="icon_mrgreen1.gif" /> )

Same! Welcome to our humble abode, HB! <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/par-ty.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="par-ty.gif" />
As Pieter says, that's in the build; also, if you have the Euro version (rather than US) that option should already be there.
Note that in POTC you can simply hold block down and you'll auto-block, you don't have to worry about timing.

Thanks mates!

I'll get the build soon but before that, for the sake of habit, I want to play the vanilla. Where can I adjust that vertical thing? (Not Euro version I'm afraid.)

Have a round on me!

Hi, HB. When you will push buttons "Option" and then "Control" there is button "Invert mose control here". You can select it or not. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hi.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":gday" border="0" alt="hi.gif" />

Ahoy brother!

Unfortunately my game isn't the Euro version, so I don't have that option. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="sad.gif" />

So, sorry. What to do with it? But why do you want to use that? I never use that possibility. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/buds.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="buds.gif" />

What you want is Taghmon's port of the Euro options to Eng. version. Does anyone still have it?
(I lost my copy ~1yr ago, I'm afraid).

Isn't there a way to code it in permanently? <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/poet.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":hmm" border="0" alt="poet.gif" /> I don't need the option, I want the inversion. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" /> <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

Ah, hadn't thought of that. Good point. :]
Sure.
Open program\controls\init_pc.c
Find each TurnV line.
Change the 0 to INVERSE_CONTROL
(If it already says inverse, leave it alone--or set it to 0 if you want to re-inverse them).

Also when you see (if you see)
SetControlForInverting("something", false)
change the false to true.

Try that. <img src="http://www.piratesahoy.com/forum/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid="" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />
(Just guessing I'm afraid)
