Title: New SDL.dll
Post by: sago007 on May 04, 2008, 06:34:33 PM
For the Windows users out there that wants to use CAPS_LOCK and NUM_LOCK as keys I have created a custom SDL version.

This SDL also changes the mouse from using DirectInput to using DirectDraw. This might help users that have a problem with the mouse input. (I cannot test it as I don't have the problem)

Download the file and extract it in the openareana-0.7.6 folder.

Some feedback would be nice. Just a "mouse is still wrong", so others don't have to bother.

It is not. Standard SDL uses DirectInput for mouse but it might be incorrect in fullscreen openGL. This dll uses DirectDraw instead that might work better.
