Mouse controls changed

Hi,

After installing Highschool Years on release day, experiencing the known problems, and having mouse control issues I didn't play the game until today. Don't know if the bugs actually got fixed but my mouse controls are still different from what they were before.

Before, turning the camera 360° (in both live and build mode) was controlled with my left button, and when in build mode, when having picked up an object I could drop/deselect it by clicking my right mouse button.

Now, in live and build mode, when I hold my left mouse button the pointer fixes to that point and the camera moves horizontally/vertically/diagonally. In live mode, my right mouse is now for turning the camera 360°(and inverted) and in build mode it rotates objects and I can only drop/deselect them with the ESC button.

How do I change this back to the mouse control settings I've always used?

I have game version 1.90.375.1020, most packs installed, and Mods/CC removed.

  • @jpkarlsen Thanks, there are only the options for The Sims 3 camera or invert horizontal/vertical rotation. It's not solving the issue I have with the actual functionality of the right/left mouse button.

    In that case you must have some software that alters how the buttons work. If you have Razers software please uninstall it.

  • @jpkarlsen I hadn't come up with this myself yet and was really hopeful but unfortunately, it doesn't change anything either. Now I am just really annoyed there are no in-game mouse control settings! Thanks anyway 🙂

    The game only has what I mentioned in settings so your problem must be outside of the game. Go to settings in Windows and look at what settings for mouse you have there,
