    Ha haa!
    you'll have to either wait for the patch and skip the tutorial (not recommended) or scrounge up another 10-15 bucks and get a new mouse (they aren't difficult to acquire... be glad you're not among the people who can't play for graphics problems)

    There was already a thread on this but anyways... 1. Build a middle mouse button 2. Reconfigure controls 3. Buy a new mouse 4. Wait for the patch to skip tutorials 5. Wonder how in the world you have a computer that can run the game while it doesn't have a modern mouse

    It does indeed seem that you'll need a new mouse.... ... just checking, and I'm only suggesting this because I've seen other peeps who didnt know this, so sorry if im being patronising here.... Has your mouse got a wheel? if so, it should also act as a middle mouse button. If not, sorry for stating the (almost) obvious. Its a shame really, cos i have about 5 (albeit cheap and manky) 3 button mice lying around my place, lol Lol, and whlst I was typing that, 4 more of you posted what I said, hehe

    Hey we don't need no steenkin middle mouse button. I guess this game won't come out for macs, they only have 1 button. Anyhow, I changed the controls for zoom and tilt on the fly in the middle of the tutorial, and had no problem. I have a logitech marble mouse (trackball) with only 2 buttons. The chord=MMB function of mouseware doesn't work. After all that, I'm contemplating buying a 3+ button mouse tomorrow when the stores open, just for this game. It would be cool to not have to use the keyboard to tilt, zoom, etc. since I've been doing a lot of those. G

    On some mice, the mouse wheel does function as a clickable middle mouse button. See my fix here to enable it for the tutorial/game: http://allboards.lionhead.com/showthread.php?p=1252897
