Moved thread to here. I don't know about the mouse option are you using the 1998 version?, as there seems to be about three or four different version of the game. Best place to look would be on the GOG forums for the game to see if you can use a mouse as they seem to be selling the most complete versions of the game. Also came across this guide to getting the game working with a 360 joypad http://www.giantbomb.com/forums/star-wars-tie-fighter-40/guide-to-playing-x-wing-and-tie-fighter-on-a-contr-1498346/[/url]
