I know I'm repeating myself again, but +1 from me for USB mouse support!! (and that goes for all the Quake games:D)

+1 from me too, both for asking and repeating. Quake 3 with mouse support would be awesome on Pandora.

Usb mouse/Keyboard support is there is just has to be specified with the right flags, which I dont recall the specifics at the moment.

[Stouffa]

Could you sprinkle some picklelauncher magic on it to get that to happen?

[MooTheKow]

Just curious - why would you want mouse support to play the game on your pandora? At that point aren't you better off just playing it on a laptop or desktop?

[Stouffa]

well I just like the idea of being able to plug in a mouse into my Pandora, and get some FPS going!

[DoubléDash]

Call me old skool but I still prefer FPS games with mouse, even on pandora! Got a wireless mouse recently, with just this in mind! There's always a small table/shelf on the train!

It's odd that for me the Pandora suddenly seems much more computer-like once a mouse is plugged in? (too many years of tech conditioning I guess!!) Granted for day to day use, I normally only use the nubs/stylus:)

Can anyone get Quake 2 working on the pandora at the moment? I just got my pandora today and I wanted to try it but no go. I ran game once to generate the folders needed but they won't generate. Anybody else having that problem?

Thanks, seems like my pak files were corrupted during copying. Now it works. Hexen 2 on the other hand crashes in game when loading the first lavel (both sdl and nanogl).

Make sure the data is patched

[fettouhi]

It is already patched to 1.21. Here is the error it outputs just before the crash
