Hey Guys!

Please I need a help,
I tried exhausty to configure my myth to use with the left hand
I tried with all the versions 1.6, 1.7. 1.7.1, 1.7.1 beta 2, more in any the configuration was good to play. I am left-handed and I have a lot of difficulty with my right hand, I don't have a lot of mobility for a problem in the committees
I would Like to revert all the commands, all those that would do with the right with the mouse, to do with the left. I tried to do but the one that happens is the following

1. the click with the right button of the mouse selects an unit but when it uses 2 clicks in the unit it doesn't select all the units of that class that are close

2. the click with right button of the mouse dragging maintaining clicked it doesn't create a selection box (when one want to select a group inside of an area in the screen).

Well the principal problem is those, actually it would like to revert all I command them with the mouse, with relationship to the keyboard could be with the same command that non problem some

Please, does anybody know how I can solve that? Do I have to alter some file in the fear?
Not to exist as doing, that can be an option to be done in the next updating of the myth II

Thankful for the attention!

I think modern operating systems are supposed to have an option to reverse mouse buttons - i.e. left clicks and right clicks are switched. Did you not set this in your operating system settings? (What OS are you using?)

If you did, and it's not having an affect on Myth II, then it's something we should try to fix.

Go to 'preferences' and klick 'left handed' under 'current set'. Then check the box that say's 'system keyboard layout'.

I'm not sure if this helps, and I think you've already tried it, but this is just what I thought off. Killerking

The original poster means changing the way the mouse works so that the left botton does what the right button does and vice versa. This is not something that is in myth's prefs.
