I recently got Black & White and am having a terrible time getting the right click to work reliably. If you've played the game you know the right click is absolutely necessary. It seems that it works sometimes but not others. Often even when at the menu screen the game stops responding to my clicks. I think it has to do with the mouse as when I use the trackpad button on my Tibook it seems to work perfectly. I've tried both the official logitech drivers as well as USB Overdrive and so far no dice.

Any ideas?

If you can send a mail in to bwsupport AT zonic.co.uk, we'll take a look. There shouldn't be a problem using a Logitech mouse with the game, but if you can include an ASP report with your mail that will help us rule out some potential problems.

I use a Logitech mouse to play B&W and B&W Creature Isle. No problems on my setup. I didn't install the Logitech software due to it being flakey in the past. I'm just using the generic OSX mouse drivers.

Are you running in OS 9 or X? If you're not under X for B&W, you should be. The drivers are built-in to the OS and in my experience B&W is one of a few select games that plays well under 10.2 (markedly better than under any iteration of 9, which is typically faster for games).
Be happy.
