I read that MOHAA had support for iFeel mice and I was overjoyed. Just to let anyone who actually owns one of these mice know: the iFeel effects are great. Now we actually have two games that use our mice yeah!!!


For those wondering: the iFeel mouse is basically a normal Logitech high quality optical mouse with a little vibrational motor inside. Think of the way a Playstaion Dualshock controller vibrates and you've got the idea. The mouse is a little bit more refined since the speed and intensity can be controlled. So you can produce a clean single hit or ping, as well as long rumbles. There's even effects to simulate moving over different textures. Anyway, support for the thing has never been that great (not many people have the mouse I guess) and there's only two games to ever have iFeel support built in: Black & White and now MOHAA. Although there are a few patches for some other popular games (UT, HL, Voyager: Elite Force, etc. mostly FPS games).

The weapon effects are awsome. The Thompson produces a wonderful effect. The Springfield produces nice clean and powerful 'hit.' Grenades generate a powerful, then low rumble that feels absolutely perfect.

If you've one of the like eight people out there with an iFeel mouse, make sure you've got that Touchsense software active; you'll love MOHAA.

I have the regular iFeel. I actually prefer not having the extra buttons. I'm a little rough with my mouse and I'd be willing to bet that I'd hit those extra side buttons a lot more times than I would intend to.

At $40 it's a pretty good deal. I mean that's about how much you'd pay for a 'normal' optical mouse anyway. Don't think that they sacrificed traking quality for the motor either; the iFeel is a great optical mouse as well. I actually had on the original Microsoft optical mice, and the iFeel is much better optical mouse IMHO.

COPY THAT!!!!!

wtf, hit the side buttons??? You have a spasm problem or something?

I have a microsoft intellimouse explorer which has two buttons on the side and a scroll which also acts as a button when pressed down (ofcourse, the left and right mouse buttons are on it...). The only way you would hit the buttons accidently would be if you had an epileptic seizure, since touching them doesn't trigger them, it requires a bit of force (not too much at all, just enough to prevent mishaps from happening). I find it VERY useful, since I normally make the scroll button the use button, and one of the side buttons reload. I could not live with a normal mouse after using this one...

you have a mouseman or regular ifeel mouse?
Thinking about getting one just for this game.

YAY for me!!!

At least games are starting to suppoer iFeel now...
