I can't tell thus far if the right mouse button does anything. The mouse buttons don't appear to be listed in the keybinding section. Assuming it doesn't, is there any way to make the "move the camera" button use the right mouse button instead of the middle mouse button?

Even if it does do something, I might like to swap them. It's a bit hard to press and hold the middle mouse button on my mouse.

Thanks.

If you're playing in over-the-shoulder mode, the right mouse button is used to cast signs. I'm not sure if it's the same when playing in isometric mode, but I think so.

As for rebinding it, I'm not sure if it's possible or not. Anyone else know?

If isometric mode is the third person mode, then yes it casts signs. Can't tell you how many times I've casted that thing when I want to move the camera. It takes me forever to get used to new controls.

They're both third-person. The isometric mode is more of a bird's eye view, whereas the over-the-shoulder mode is basically looking over Geralt's shoulder, and controls closer to a first-person game. I've only used over-the-shoulder, which has mouselook, so I don't know about the camera controls in isometric mode. Maybe WASD move the camera?

Ah. I'm using the farthest out option. Isometric. WASD moves the Geralt. Middle mouse moves the camera-I think that's still technically mouselook (?). It's just not too easy to do with my mouse.

The over-the-shoulder view in this game is guarenteed to make me sick. Having the camera only move on keypress/mouse press is one of the things I require from a game. I can get used to the middle mouse button. I can't get used to the extra camera movement of the other type.

I'm glad the isometric view works for you then. I wasn't necessarily advocating the over-the-shoulder view, just explaining that I haven't used isometric so I didn't know what the camera controls were. Anyway, I hope you are getting used to the controls and can enjoy the game!

Other than randomly blasting things. Sure. It's better than the random stabbing I do in Assassin's Creed.

I think I love AutoHotKey.

Found an auto run mod for DA:II. Modified it to work with Mass Effect--only way I can drive the Mako without getting sick. Then I used it to swap the functionality of the Right and Middle mouse buttons in The Witcher.


(I might even be able to fix some of my issues with Skyrim. I've hated that game so far, but the hype...I keep expecting it to be better).
