FAQ

How to compile?

1. Install Windows SDK (or Vitual Studio), DirectX SDK, CMake (and add cmake to PATH).
2. Open Windows SDK shell (or cmd), and go to ThMouse source folder, for example C:\ThMouse, type:

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake ..
   

3. Use NMake (or Vitual Studio) to build the project ThMouse.
4. You can get compile result at C:\ThMouse\build\bin .

How to install?

Just put all files (cursor.png, games, ThDxHook.dll, ThMouse.exe, ThMouse.ini) in the same folder.

How to enable ThMouse?

1. Run ThMouse.exe before entering the game.
2. Enable the option to select resolutions when initiating the game. (Or ThMouse will NOT work.)
3. Select the lowest resolution or fullscreen. (All other resolutions will cause displaced mouse cursors.)
4. If the game is supported, a crosshair will show upon entering the game.

How to control?

• The character will move towards where the cursor points. Please note that it will NOT move immidiately with the cursor, because ThMouse can not change moving speed.
• You still have to use left hand to control low speed and fire buttons.
• Left click can initiate bomb.
• Right click can turn off mouse control temporally.

How to close it?

1. Exit game first.
2. Double-click the ThMouse icon on the taskbar and press quit button.
