What mouse do you use

[Buffer68]

Hi guys,
I have just started to use Trainz and am enjoying it but I can't seem to get my mice to operate levers etc very well. I am running the sim on a Mac with Bootcamp and have tried the Apple optical mouse and also a fairly basic non Apple one but both are not wonderful. Should I try a laser mouse or something else? Thanks.

Is it any train, or specific cabs or levers?
What's actually happening when you try to move them?

It can prove somewhat difficult to operate the levers in cab mode, just a case of either getting used to it or using DCC mode! (Or using the Raildriver control thing)

One of the things is people sometimes try to move the mouse to the side for levers that are horizontal, which wont work.
Also, try clicking further in on the lever if you can, if you see what i mean.

Hmmm that Raildriver control panel looks pretty cool especially for driving the diesels - might just have to put that on my Birthday wish list!

Thanks also for the tips 90019, will try your suggestions later on.

Yeh I have a Raildriver myself, highly reccomended!
