Can't look right/left

[Sopticek]

When playing, I need to look right or left, naturally, with mouse. But it doesn't do anything. Neither does touchpad. So it means that I can look up, down, can go wherever I want with WSAD on my keyboard, but I can't move to sides with the mouse any slightly. I can't play with this. I tried to reinstall game. It doesn't help at all. Do you know, what else can I try? Please!

did you try to:
unplug mouse and replug?
or/and restart pc?
I honestly don't know what else to suggest.
what kind of mouse do you use?

It can't be problem with mouse, because it doesn't work with touchpad anyway. I have gaming mouse and it has no problem in any other game. It must be something in software or.. I don't know. Not sure whether CD key can be wrong somehow..

well, did you try to unplug and replug anyway?
as for cd key, no. it's dead and is mainly used for when you're banned from a server, you can change cd keys.

If you have a game-controller or joystick plugged in, unplug it or disable it. Also, disable the Steam overlay, since it is frequently associated with mouse issues. Make sure your mouse-drivers are up-to-date and will work reliable in the resolution that you're trying to run the game at in order to avoid "mouse resolution mismatch" problems.

Disable your touchpad, as well. You should be able to do that from your system settings/touchpad driver settings. (Usually, either a simple Function key or a doubletap spot on the touchpad, itself, will do this.) The game could be getting confused and identifying your touchpad as a joystick and not understanding how to interpret it. Since SWBFII is joystick capable, it will probably automatically poll for any anolog input device.

Also, try completely exiting and then restarting Steam, just in case. That's probably not the issue, but it should be done anyway, whenever you encounter a problem. (A reboot will not always force Steam to dump its cached issues.)

Here's a great Tweakguide for SWBFII. Make sure to read the one for SWBFI, since it's the same engine. (Ignore the "patching to 1.1 portion, since you will have the latest version and willl, if you want to run mods, use the unofficial 1.3 patch. See the Guides section for that.)

Try adjusting mouse sensitivity as well, especially if you have a high-dpi setting on your mouse. (Ideally, you don't want too high a dpi refresh setting on your mouse, since you can run into issues with older games and resolution-mismatch problems. (ie: Your mouse wants to update the game at a higher rate per move than the game can deal with or vice-versa.)

its not the settings. ive had this problem on my laptop. The best thing to do is get a different mouse or try the game on another comp.

Yeah i was just short of being able to return it so i can sell it to a friend or wait till i buy a gaming pc, i tried updating mouse drivers and some other updates through lenovo remote support and didn't change but it's fine i'll get a new pc sometime

well i know u can go to button settings and make sure the buttons for the mouse are set to turn it though i think i dont i not sure if it matters version i mean epic games origin version beacuse if mouse isnt set it just doesnt do anything really which is strange mine though i dont mind mouse turning though iusuly use keyboard to turn since it faster fully turns or whatever ha and i can use mouse up or down to position height adn move it from left to right for for alittle bit of turning when its there for aiming though when i do keyboard and mouse keyboard to turn and mouse to postion height it actualy flips which is strange and its hard to play hard to play when facing one way then turning full other direction also wish i could set differnt buttons for gunner characters and the saber characters but they all use one button also its strange how game is with normal strikes on just autos for saber users to use energy so u get up to them and stand beacuse u have nothign and u cant be on the front lines liek supposed to but then ucant also do anythign else so uhave to sorta find someone using shield generators to wait to go back in or soemthign though there supposed to be front lines not realy behind allowing there gunners to take damage ha i find that strange to in general but anyways still wish icould get the actaul movment to actually work with keyboard and mouse ha though that non moving from side to side on mouse is having the mouse set to move it side to side in button settings which is options controls key bindings change under mouse look right and left should be move mouse X or what ever it could of unbound key settings hope it helps just wish could get what need to work to work though u probably have it fixed by now or something since i think its been while since asked though hopefuly it helps someone if stil having the problem hope it helps u to ha sigh silly game wish my movement works right with keyboard and mouse ha hope everyone in the world doing ok and everything having a good week and has a good weekend and everything God bless.

[blackknight1112]

it might be camera flipping i think u can double a button on somethings in the game to do stuff wish could disable it if its that since i might just want to fine align a little after the first press instead it flips and get hit ha in the uh back with stuff ha it probably should be a total different button i think the planes have a button for rear view mirror should be on another button like that ha or able to turn it off ha or both different button and able to turn it off i mean u know ha i think there making a new battlefront hopefully alot of all that gets fixed or all of that stuff ha hopefully u and everyone in the world get to be able to move around in the current game and later games ha.

[blackknight1112]

at least uping mouse sensitivity works so it doesnt haev to need to adjust as much still wish it didnt flip when have to use it though it might be possibly easier to flip with keyboard or be with ability for keybaord to have back to enemy sense its faster the keyboard probaly from them having slow senstivty at start though mouse senstitvy should of started higher and the keyboard not as fast turning when u semi hold the button so it could just be for wel minor turning to finish off aiming or whatever there mouse senstivity starts very low so it bearly does anything with mouse movements ha so it causes the need to sometimes re find teh ones who were on screen who moved to the side off screen or in battle to u know wish could manualy asign slots to were the spell is some characters have simliar things in different places like they have heals or activation for reducing damage or whatever and one character would have it in a different place other character would have the same things or whatever but in a different place ha be cool to use one or 2 other cards would be cool cool game hopefully when they make new game they fix some of the stuff or all i mean u know ha
