I cannot bowl.

[AgentKenny]

It asks me to use the mouse but i pull back my mouse and do it forward and nothing happens :(

I suspect I think I know what your problem might be: When you try to throw the ball, you drag the mouse back and then rapidly scoot it forward without holding down the "fire" button, correct?

I can't remember if you have to hold down MB0, or LMB, when you're dragging the mouse back, but for sure you have to hold the button down while "throwing" the ball. Not holding down the button when you throw is like telling the ball-tosser to hold onto the ball.

IRL my bowling average is 197, not really astounding, but moderately respectable. The bowling minigame can be entertaining.

i love the bowling in gta 4 too

The cartoon girls seem to love it, too, even when you beat their asses (they kinda lose respect for you if you allow them to win).

Oh...and I was kinda wondering: There are twenty-six other people out there calling themselves "Piñata-Hunter?" Es un poco más que asombroso o extraño. Besides, "Trolley-Hunter¹" has a better ring to it.

¹ reference to a Banksy art piece, Trolley-Hunters[www.foodfiltr.cz]."

BTW, true funny: "Recently," police released a video of a thief stealing a $45,000-valued print of Banksy's "Trolley-Hunters." (the original, of course, having been painted on a wall somewhere...kinda hard to rip off)

forgotten how to play it i played this over 20 yrs ago , put if i remember you move the mouse left or right move it back then forward

[Jurassic Fart 3]

First you have to pick your spot (twenty years ago would be a really neat trick, as the game was published only thirteen years ago) on the X axis, left or right—I think using the A and D keys—and the control really isn't very fine; there are only a few specific spots left, center, or right that may be chosen...and then the mouse is used to let loose on the Y axis (it's impossible to select a negative value, to throw it behind you) in the front.

I am still having the same issue but there is no fixes that I have seen. I disabled VSync and everything and it still doesn't work, persisting bug for some reason.

I use a wireless Razer Basliisk X Hyperspeed mouse. Is it a light mouse or a laser mouse? I dunno what's happening.

Well I already have a gaming mouse so I don't wanna switch to Logitech if that's what you're saying. I was asking if my mouse is a laser or a light mouse? I guess I'll figure that out myself maybe.

lock fps to 30 with rtss or your gpu control panel and try to bowl again

[DPAR]

what i do is basically flick the mouse back and forth once really fast, and then it bowls fine. the mouse goes back and forth real fast and then that way you should be able to bowl, i dont have vsync enabled or anything either

GTA games have a lot of aiming, so I prefer playing them with kb + m as well
