Greetings folks,

I'm having some difficulty in using my mouse scroll wheel in-game. I'd like to use it to adjust the camera, but it doesn't want to know.

I'm running vista 64, and I notice it works ok on my bros xp machine. Anyone know what could be causing this issue?

Cheers,

WW

I am guessing you're using a microsoft mouse.

The culprit in the drama is the microsoft acceleration scrolling feature they use for their mouses. Using old drivers of Intellipoint (version 3 or so) apparently will fix the issue, but i cannot force install those on Vista.
I have the same problem and despite downloading fixed from microsofts homepage.

But then i found a little program called X-Mouse.

With it you can change the scrollwheel to act as a normal scroll wheel which will make it work in COH.
