This is ›‹‡›‹Dingo›‹‡›‹ nd not that the Internet connections here have improved a lot I thought I would start Starsige back up after a while of not playing. I am trying to get Starsiege to run on my Windows 10 machine. I downloaded the file www.map4gold.com/dload/SSwin10-Install.exe for win 10 and 7 and 8 and loaded it and it works except I cannot use my mouse. When I use any of the Keyboard_Mouse.cs files and the Modern_Keyboard_Mouse.cs as the file as soon as Starsiege gets into the game the aiming cursor goes to the Bottom Right of the screen and can't get it off that position. I tried most of the files and it is the same with them all. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Dingo, you are probably using a laptop just like me. You need to set the ingame resolution to 1366x768 (Can be done in options). You may have noticed ingame that your radar is also not fully showing up. That causes the problems with the mouse. Hope it helps!

Hi Dave. I am using a PC but I thought I would give your solution a go but the resolution is set to 640X480 and I can't enter anything else. I changed the resolution in defaultPrefs.cs but it was still 640X480 in the game. Thanks for the reply though.

I take it I Have to pull the old computer out, put it all back together and dig up Starsiege off of it since Eye's site no longer has ANY downloads for Starsiege anymore.
Put a decent Link to the Starsiege Download so people can PLAY it!

I am also having the issue where I cannot change the resolution. Windowed Mode: Software, Full Screen Mode: Open GL, and Full Screen Resolution: 640X480 are the only options in those settings, every other setting seems to have the full range of selection. The mouse works fine in the menus but as soon as I start a mission it goes to the bottom right.
Have tried reinstalling several times with full CD ISO copy and the HiRez download and trying different combinations of patches, but have the same result. Would appreciate any help! Loved this game when I was younger and just recently rediscovered it.

I seem to have gotten it to work, it crashes once in awhile and I can only play it in 1024x768 but it's playable at least. For those who have the same problem as I did, I needed to set compatibility mode to Windows 8. I did the Sierra site installer with the full disc iso files mounted using Ultra ISO.
After changing compatibility to Windows 8 I could start the game and I had the option to change the resolution. It was super slow, like less than 1 fps when playing a mission at first. Changing Full Screen Mode to Software instead of Open GL fixed this, but resulted in the highest resolution being 1024x768. I had another issue as well where the windows start bar was showing up in full screen mode, changing the resolution on my computer to a lower one seemed to fix this.
Finally, another issue I've been having is that it seems like the in game music doesn't download to the computer, so when I start a mission it gives an error that it can't find the files. I tried to disable my optical drive using device manager so that the virtual drive was the only one available and reinstalled the game, but still wasn't able to rip the music off it seems. Not sure if it's the iso I'm using or what. Disabling CD Music in the game options fixed the error popping up, so that's where I'm at now.
