I dont realy know if this is the right place to ask, but I just got a new Windows 7 PC, and for some reason, after i installed it, the mouse doesnt appear to work, I cannot select anything, the only keys that work are: Enter, Escape, and `/~ (console key). Again, I dont know if this is the right place (as i didnt see anything in here on technical problems), I only came here reading the post on convertiong Tribes into a browser game (thinking that you guys might know how to fix this) at: http://news.bigdownload.com/tag/garagegames (the PAX 2009 post).

I have a Fair Share of bone picking topics with the old tribes games too evendently the api that was used is incompatible with a lot of events in the windows sdk but that is the lacking of the old direct Input commands, You should get the DirectX sdk. Try some of the api from that and you will get it to work!

It includes a Vista/Windows 7 fix, updated master servers and latest 'Last Hope' patch(I think). Mind you, if you plan on playing mainly on base servers, you'll wanna download the LT, DOX and Open Call maps, all of which can be found here:

Good luck.
