Default window mode + mouse control

to set windowed mode and use the mouse to move the plane, often inadvertently leave the game window producing the inevitable death.

Would it be possible that by using the game, the mouse is captured as in all other games? thank you very much!

sorry for my English, I'm Spanish xD

Not sure what you mean by this? Could you explain a little better?

I think I know what he's talking about. I have the same problem.

When I play in windowed mode, when I spawn, sometimes the mouse control activates and the plane turns into the direction where the mouse is pointing to. This results in a crash against the wall. Sometimes I manage to take control back to the keyboard fast enough to survive, but still loose a lot of energy.


EDIT: Ok, I re-read it and I think his problem is other after all. When he is using mouse control, sometimes the mouse pointer goes out of the altitude window area. When that happens, altitude stop detecting his mouse movement and his plane crashes.

hmm, sounds like a bug in the game, not much you can do there except report it to the developer. Otherwise play in fullscreen or use the kb. Happy Flying!!

If you ever have the issue while using the kb, flip your mouse upside down so you dont accidentally bump it, I have had that happen before.

Download this.

WMC Instructions
Instructions

Errors while trying to start the application?
Then you need .Net Version 2 Framework.

Specify window
Right click the icon on the taskbar, click specify.
Now left click inside the window you want to specify (not on the taskbar).

Enable Capture/Release mode
Press your set hotkey to enable/disable capture mode.
The icon will change color to indicate the status:

* White: WMC is not enabled for capturing
* Yellow: WMC is enabled for capturing but window isnt active
* Red: WMC has captured the mouse

To switch windows either alt-tab or press the hotkey to disable capture mode.

Change hotkey
Right click the icon on the taskbar, click inside the text box and press your hotkey.
