It's actually quite possible, although I'm not sure how well it actually works.

First, make a copy of the <font face="Courier New">default.ini</font id="Courier New"> file inside your <font face="Courier New">..\IWar2\configs</font id="Courier New"> directory and name it something recognisable, like, say, "mouse.ini".

Next, open that file and edit the line <font face="Courier New">name=options_default</font id="Courier New"> to read something like <font face="Courier New">name=tatyawinchu's Configuration</font id="Courier New">.

Finally, scroll down until you see the following:


You'll want to modify that as follows:

That'll be $599.95, please.

Hi .. thanks so much for those tips .. my dad could do it accordingly .. Now my mouse works for up and down and right and left and rolling .. Only little problem is that it moves nicely up and down but very very slowly right and left .. rolling is ok .. so how to speed it up ? Oh and dad says u really dont want money .. u r just pulling my leg ... right ?

thanks so much
