I saw that there was a post about trying to switch weapons with the scroll wheel. I have no idea how to set up dos box ( thank god I found out how to use mouse aiming). Can someone help me?

What do you want to accomplish, switching weapons via scroll wheel? It's not really possible in Blood. You can set it so it will cycle through the weapons with a *click* or **double-click** of the scroll wheel, but it's not as fluid as just rolling the wheel.

If you still want to do it that way, open your Blood.cfg file with notepad and look for the lines for Mouse Button 2, they are lines 138 & 139 for me. Change them to read:
MouseButton2 = "Next_Weapon"
MouseButtonClicked2 = "Previous_Weapon"


I hope that helps.
Yea I want to cycle through the weapons with rolling the wheel. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear before. Can you please tell em how to do that? Thanks.

It's not possible with Blood alone. It doesn't know how to interpret the additional mouse buttons that the scroll wheel represents. The act of scrolling would would most likely register as clicks of additional mouse buttons and would be set as MouseButton4 & 5, but Blood only knows about MouseButton1, 2 &3. Remember, when Blood was created scroll mice didn't exist; we had plain old 3 button mice, track balls, joysticks, game pads and drawing tablets.

It might be possible to write a program like bMouse.exe, that handles the mouse control and passes information directly back to Blood allowing for scroll wheel functionality. But for right now, I don't know of anything that will do what you want.
I see. Well that's all right I guess I will just get used to switching with numbers
I map Q & E for weapon cycling, there is less of a chance to accidentally switch weapons by bumping the scroll wheel in a firefight.
