Davo--1: On OUHB I seem to get a flickering problem with the HUD when I go near walls.
Does anyone know a way to fix this?
This problem occurs frequently upon common refreshing, reloading the game and in areas with glass or transparency effects, also end credits will flick when full hud is enabled. Can cause several strange phenomena for ex. infinite ammo or breathing under water. That's why many gamers playing only with partial hud. Amusingly NOLFB can reduce full hud flickering. BMOUSE with NOLFB can make wonders.
You can download BMOUSE from here:
http://swisscm.duke4.net/
and NOLFB from here:
http://advsys.net/ken/build.htm now put both BMOUSE.EXE and NOLFB.COM with all files into your OUWB directory where Bood.exe is and edit dosboxBlood_single.conf to something like this:
[autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
@ECHO OFF
mount C ".."
c:
imgmount D game.ins -t iso
cls
NOLFB.COM
bmouse launch blood.exe
exit
this one is for Cryptic Passage (dosboxBlood_addon.conf): [autoexec]
# Lines in this section will be run at startup.
@ECHO OFF
mount C ".."
c:
imgmount D game.ins -t iso
cls
NOLFB.COM
bmouse launch CRYPTIC.EXE
exit
Now use Settings or Setup.exe program and follow this:
There are two ways of running bMouse...
From Setup:
1. Unzip this archive into the directory where you have installed Blood
2. Run "SETUP.EXE"
3. Go to Controller Setup->Choose Controller Type and select "Keyboard
and External"
4. Go to Setup External and change the program name to "BMOUSE.EXE"
5. Then Save and Launch Blood through "SETUP.EXE"

How to Configure
----------------
You cannot configure most mouse options ingame, but you can do it in
SETUP.EXE.
For Button Mappings go to:
Controller Setup->Setup Mouse
NOTE: Sensitivity and inversion options in this menu do not do anything.
For mouse sensitivity options go to:
"Controller Setup->Setup Advanced Control Options->Advanced Mouse Setup"
Here you can change the Sensitivity per Axis by going to "Mouse X Axis
Scale" and "Mouse Y Axis Scale". Configure to your liking and ignore
the rest of the options.
The in-game Y-Axis inversion toggle works just fine, though it
doesn't save. As a more permanent solution you can set the "Mouse Y
Axis Scale" to negative vales for inverted look.
Note that bMouse uses only the game's default CFG files for control
mapping information.
