So, I decided I want to start playing Myth 2 again with some of my friends. I have however run into a few small issues that I hope someone can help me with. Some of the questions are kind of stupid, but I need to ask them anyways.

1. How do you toggle the mouse wheel to zoom the camera in/out?

I have installed Myth 2 on 3 Pc's and 2 of them won't allow the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Seems very odd because on the one that does work, I did not have to turn it on in the control options.

2. Has anyone ever had an issue installing myth 2 on a pc?

By saying this, I mean that when I put the myth 2 disc in and the autorun brings the myth menu up, I then click the "install myth " button and nothing happens. I have seen this issue on 2 computers out of about 5 friends that installed myth 2. Once again this issue is odd because all the computers are running Windows XP. (BTW I have tried installing by going into the disc and clicking Setup).

3. Has anyone ever had an issue with an NVIDIA GeForce 4 card while playing myth 2?

When i tried running Direct 3d with this card the units were completely glitched and they appeared as part of the terrain of the map.



All of the installations I have done are patched 1.3 if that info helps. I appreciate any comments on any of my questions.

Hey Mordecai,

For questions 1 and 3 you'll need to update to 1.5.1 (look in the Downloads section on this site).

1. In Preferences hit the Control Settings button. I think the mouse wheel behaviour is on the lower right somewhere.

2. Try running the setup in compatibility mode

3. Direct3D is teh suck - if its still poor when running 1.5.1 you could try OpenGL instead.
