Hi, i play on Vista-32bit, and when i play at FoA, in combat I haven't the cursor, and the special punch (insert) doesen't work...
I'm playing with floppy version.
Anyone can help me?

Thanx Nikita

If memory serves right, the mouse is supposed to be hidden while in combat (you use the keys on the keypad, e.g. 7/4/1, 9/6/3 etc). As for the insert key.... have you tried both the insert keys (on the keyboard and keypad)?

In FOA, the cursor should be shown in combat mode and it is what happens for me in scummvm (win xp)

I believe it depends on whether or not you've selected keyboard fighting mode or not. (By pressing the F key, if memory serves me. It's described - briefly - in the original manual.)

Hmm, enabling the mouse combat mode by default would make these scenes playable in the Wii port.

Does it also enable controlling the biplane scenes in Indy 3? Or was this just a feature made for FoA?

If my memory serves me correctly it's pretty much unique to FoA, but then the SCUMM games aren't overly heavy on combat or keyboard only control.

I haven't checked, but it's doubtful. As far as I know, the behavior is entirely controlled by the game scripts.
