Title: Arrow Key Control in ScummVm 0.9.1
Post by: chris2922 on January 28, 2007, 11:57:33 am

Hey everyone,

I have recently installed the latest version of the ScummVm emulator (0.9.1).
The last time i downloaded and installed this emulator was many versions ago, and it featured Arrow Key control the simulated mouse movement.
In the readme file for 0.9.1 it states that arrow key control is common for all emulated games.

Arrow key control does not work for me, and i really need it for this install.

Can someone help please?

(Theres nothing on the ScummVM forum or in the Bugs list)

What game are you trying to play?

** Edit **

Had a chance to try this out - I do remember the arrow keys working at one point. I have a copy of 0.8.2, and it does the same thing as 0.9.1 on my system as well...

Ive tried it with quite a few:

Monkey1, Monkey2, Indy, DOTT, Sam&Max, Full Throttle...

They all work fine with the mouse, but offer no arrow key control.  I thought maybe it was something id missed - a command line parameter perhaps.  I cant find any mention of it in the documentation, other than arrow key control is 'common to all games in ver 0.9.1'.
