Hey,

no matter what i try, i can't get my mouse working in PC.

toggled raw input, tried a different mouse... out of ideas here.

My control settings show mouse up, down, left, right etc to look around, yet i can't use my mouse to aim ?

This is the only game i've ever had this issue with.

Do i need to play this with a controller ? I read something about "Mousethingy", is that actually needed for proper mouse input ?

Some info about my PC:

i7 8700K
1080 strix
16GB RAM
Win10 Prof. 64-Bit

Mouse in question is a Logitech G-Pro Wireless

You using window mode or full screen?

Try running the game in admin mode? Lol
i tried admin mode, fullscreen, borderless windowed, windowed... thing is, the mouse works fine in the menu. but once i load into a game, nothing happens when i move it. it gets detected in the settings menu tho, since i can set mouse left to look left etc

That happens to me too, in campaign mode the mouse works well but in the multiplayer mode it doesn't work, the keyboard works well but the mouse don't, and I have the xbox buttons layout all the time, it doesn't show me the keyboard layout idk what would be the problem

Have you tried reinstalling your mouse drivers. Sometimes Windows 10 likes to install it's own proprietary drivers during Windows Update and break things.

Also try lowering the polling rate on your mouse in control panel. Halo 2 has issues with high polling rates over 500.

Hi there o_O
Try this:

1. Press WIN + R
2. Type ''appdata'' and then press Enter
3. Go to Local folder
4. Then, go to Microsoft folder
5. Search the Halo 2 folder and delete it
6. Open the game (Project Cartographer)

And should be fixed now, hope it helps!

Yeah , I'm having the same problem here.
Mouse works perfectly in campaign but doesn't work in multiplayer.
Controller works fine in both.
My pc is an old on with core 2 duo and 4GB Ram and no GPU
My mouse is an Acer Nitro mouse.
I am pretty good with a controller (I've completed h2 on heroic)but in mp , players are too good to kill with just a controller. Mouse is just so much more better to use.
Pls help
