VICE 3.7.1 testers needed (Mouse emulation)
So!
Apparently we have a strange bug related to mouse emulation on Windows systems. It would be great if all of you could do a quick test:
- grab the 3.7.1 release from
https://github.com/VICE-Team/svn-mirror/releases/tag/3.7.1
- start it and reset settings (just incase it picks up settings from another release)
- enable 1351 mouse emulation for port 1
- run the following program:
Mousetest V2
- now enable mouse grab (alt-m) and move around the mouse
Now if that does NOT move the 1351 icon as expected, please report that, and give some details about your system. In particular interesting is the exact OS (eg "Windows 10 22H2"), your graphics card and driver version, and your screen resolution...
Some people reported it does not work for them - while it works for others. This is very strange, we could not yet determine what the systems where it does not work have in common - hence this request.
Thanks in advance!

ERROR_ENVVAR_NOT_FOUND 203 (0xCB) The system could not find the environment option that was entered.
It's getting weirder and weirder >_<

Here is another possible fix (available in half an hour or so):

Please try again :)

When I had two monitors, only up and down movement worked properly. When I disconnected second monitor, disabled mouse grab and did ALT+M again it started to behave ok.
On fullscreen (ALT+D) it has weird acceleration, but I actually don't know how the mouse behaves on real C64, plus mouse sensitivity setting might be the factor (I played with it and it seemed to behave a bit less acceleratey). If I can say from my limited experience with C64 mouse/mouse emulation, it seems to work now.

The plot thickens...
There is improvement!
(I can't do decent screen capture, so here's a written report)
It is still not possible to move the mouse into the VICE window the normal way. As soon as I activate Mouse-Grab the mouse jumps back to the center of the main screen (irreverent of the VICE window position) and as soon as I try to enter the window on the edge I see the cursor change to the resize window version for a very short time before being sent back to the center of the main screen.
But... There is an old Windows trick (bug) to work around that and which I have been using. When I keep the left button pressed and use the "drag selection window" function you can enter any window, whatever the state of it. And once you are in the window nothing happens because the window thinks the pressed button is the normal state and it's function is reversed.
So when I release the button and keep it pressed again then the window starts registering the mouse movement.
In the other versions the test sprite was moving completely irradical. In this version the test sprite moves as it should.
Long story but I think you're halfway there.
btw. Here's the log:

OK So, those where it doesnt work, please try the following: before you enable "mouse grab", move the VICE window to the center of the screen, and place the mouse pointer in the center of the VICE window. NOW press ALT-M. Acoording to the current working theory this should then make it work. Does it?

Did some more testing on different positions on the screen and the mouse is not necessarily placed in the center of the main screen as such but as far as I can see displaced one screen width to the right.
+---------.+ +---------.+
+---s2----+ +----s1---+
+---------.+ +---------.+
+---------.+ +---------.+
(screen size for both is 1920x1080)
eg. VICE is in center screen s2, mouse reappears in center s1.
Move VICE anywhere on s2 and mouse reappears one screen width to the right of it but on the same Y coordinate.
If VICE is started somewhere on s1 the mouse will reappear on the right most edge of s1 (no desktop there so can't go any further).

I think to reproduce the problem the following is needed:
- two monitors
- a relatively high display resolution (1920xsomething or so at least)

This weekend I hope I'll have the opportunity to test that properly.
