Mouse only controls camera

Hi,

I'm having a problem with controls for DA:I on PC.

Instead of having to click and drag to rotate the camera around my character, the mouse now only controls the camera and I do not need to hold down the mouse button to do so.

I've been able to play this way for a little while using keyboard controls but it has been annoying as I cannot access any potions other than health, command my whole party to attack/disengage or interact in any conversations that do not have numbered response options (Ie the ones you can move during)

The mouse controls work just fine in inventory, map, tactic screens, on the war table and when the looting option comes up.  I have tried changing the control options in the main menu and creating a new character, but the problem persists.

I'm now stuck in a party banter with no option to exit without giving an answer but because the responses aren't numbered I can't interact...

I have no other controls or devices plugged into the USB and have played through twice with the current wireless keyboard and mouse set up without issue

Thanks for any help you can suggest

  • In the option menu, go to keybinds and find 'toggle mouse look' (somewhere at the bottom). This is a key that determines whether or not you have to drag to move the camera. In the game, press this button to enable/disable mouse look.

    I'm having the same problem but this didn't work ☹️

    The "Mouse Look" option is built-in and always works (if you select it.). So you're doing something wrong if it's not.

    It's a relic from some of their older titles where you had to use the mouse for everything, so mouse look would be very inconvenient. I still prefer it that way, because it's what I'm used to.

  • any chance that there is a way to get click-lock enabled for origins ? i read how handicapable the game was , but now this has me hung up , and I can't drag and drop items ?
