I just downloaded and installed (on Win7 64-bit) the Screamer 2 game I'd purchased a couple weeks ago. It seemed to install and launch fine but is totally unresponsive to my keyboard and mouse. I've pressed just about every button, and it just keeps cycling between the opening credits and the team selection screen.

When I installed it I got two launch icons (with and without 3DFX. Both launch under DOSBox and neither responds to me.

I don't see any manual confirming what keys are *supposed* to be working. (Enter, Space, Arrow Keys at least, I'd imagine.)

Any ideas? Thanks. (This is my first GOG game.)

Bump?

Do you have a controller plugged in?
If so you need to calibrate the axes with the setupprogram, if this is not done the controller might interfere with the keyboard.

Thanks. (Sorry, I never got an email notification about this reply.) I didn't have a controller plugged in. Just a laptop with USB keyboard and mouse. I guess I'll try again without those plugged in.

Weird. Make sure you contact GOG support -- that's what they're there for.

Since I just faced this same problem but figured it out, here's the solution that worked for me:

By default Screamer 2 seems to have joystick controls enabled for player 1, even if you don't have a joystick. I just needed to run the Settings shortcut and enable & configure keyboard controls for Controls 1 (player 1).

After that I could finally actually do something in Screamer 2, besides watching the demo mode. :)
